prietor of a furniture store and a

of one of the victims he himself took
pneumonia. Mr.. Stanton was one of
the pioneers in the Mt. Carmel sec
tion, coming to America at the age
of five years with his mother from
West Port, County Mayo. Ireland.
He became noted engineer and me-
chanical genius. inventing machinery
now used in collieries. When his
brother died 26 years ago, also of
pneumonia, he took up his funeral di-
recting business and had been very
successful. He was the most noted
for his philanthropy never turning
away a request for aid, and Mt. Car
mel for years was accustomed to
say: John Stanton has not one
enemy in the world" He was active
in the Holy Name Society and treas
urer of the Order of Owls. Besides
Father Stanton. there survive a
widow, Mrs. Stanton, a daughter. and
the following sons: Walter, Robert,
Clement, Joseph, Vincent and James.
