OCALA TWENTY YEARS AGO

John w. Ballard, an old citizen,
passed away at his home west of the
city, aged so years.
Mrs. Mary cambridge Crist, an au-
thor of note, who was spending sew
eral days at the Ocala House, was
taken very i'll, but was restored to
health by one of our city physicians.
News came of the death at Muncie,
Ind, of Mrs. Rebecca Anthony,
mother of S. P Anthony of this city
and E. II. Swain of Anthony.
The Flournoy, a small but swift
steam yacht was brought from Ho-
mosassa by rail and launched on Sill
yer Springs, to make trips to Palatka.
This boat did not run long, as she
couldn't take aboard enough fuel at
once to enable her to make the trip.
Gaskins' store on Tucker Hill was
burned.
A. E. ,Gerig took position in the
Plant System freight office. This was
the present A. c.. L. freight depot,
and it hasn't grown any since Mr..
Gerig left it.
The Ocala high school closed March
4. The graduates were Misses Claude
Waterman, Pauline Harder, Sarah
Harris, Mary Reardon and Matte
Layne, Harry Dozier and Tom Liv-
ingston. The exercises were held in
the Marion Opera House and were
largely attended.
Robert Fore of Common and Miss
Agnes Griggs of Lake Kerr were
married at the home of the brides
parents. Many prominent people liv-
ing east of the river attended the
wedding.
At the Fort Mccoy Baptist church,
Miss jamie Martin of Fort Mccoy
was married to NJ. j. Turner, a
young lawyer of Ocala.
The Ocala Rifles, Captain R. E..
Davidson and Lieutenant G. ".
Roberts, showed up well at inspec-
ton.
The Star recommended that the city
purchase the electric light plant, then
the property of the General Electric
Company.
Father Bottolaccio took charge of
st. Phillips Catholic church.
Frank Wetherbee was skipper of
the Eloise, a smart little steamer,
cruising on Silver Springs run and
the Oklawaha.
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1918-03-04

with moss, were there when Ponce de
Leon landed, and probably not much
smaller than now, for they grow very
slowly. One of them is at least ten
feet in diameter. 1t is bigger than
any tree in the Monarch Grove, a
few miles to the east, which is named
for its immense oaks.
The creeks fairly abound with fish
even an ordinary fisherman could
catch more than an average family
could use. The creeks come together
near the grove and form quite lit
tie river, which flows into the Withla-
coochee, not far away. It's Mr..
Thomas intention, when the grove is
fully bearing again, to build couple
of barges, which, with small power
boat to tow them, will deliver the
boxed fruit to the nearest railroad,
thus solving the transportation prob
lem.
He believes he can fight off the
next freeze-if one comes-by firing.
In last years freeze he had enough
wood for one night-all ever before
needed-and kept the temperature of
the grove above danger point until it
gave out. He will have three times as
much wood next time, but such
freeze may not come again for fifty
years.
The way he has succeeded IN re-
storing this grove is proof of what
many of the more experienced grow
ers say-that if the grove owners aft
er the big freeze of '95 had held on
and cut back their trees, instead of
cutting them down for frewood, or
deserving them, the Florida orange
industry would have had but short in
PERMISSION. However, it was necessary
for Florida to know she could raise
something beside oranges, so perhaps
it is as well.
Noticing many bees scouting amid
the orange blossoms, for the trees are
loaded with bloom, we asked Mr..
Thomas if he had any hives. He SAID
no, but there were several bee trees
in and around the grove. We saw
several of the little toilers leave the
flowers and take that almost straight
line flight that will always lead the
woodman to their stores.
Jimmy Thomas beckoned the scribe,
as we thought, mysteriously, into
dim trail leading into the swamp, and
we followed, hoping he was leading
US to a moonshine still. However, it
was only big sulphur spring, with
water just right for drinking and
bathing, and when he builds bath
house over it he will have Baden
Baden beaten and bamboozled.
There are several springs on the
property-one of soft, cool water
near the home of his caretaker, and
some distance away another, out of
which a good-sized creek bursts-it
also being of soft water good for
drinking and household purposes.
