funeral services We're held at Camp
Walton. Fla. Sunday. October 20th,
for John Austin Hartgrove, who died
of pneumonia in Pensacola October
18th, 1918. They consisted of scrip
ture reading and appropriate songs
at the grave in. the Camp Walton
cemetery.
John Austin Hartgrove was born
May 26th. 1853. at Alton, Ill. He grew
to manhood in Illinois, where he re-
ceived his education in the public
schools. He learned the painters as
we'll as the carpenters trade and
worked at. these callings III various
parts of the United States from Chi
cago to San Francisco. from Duluth
to Pensacola. A number OF years ago
he met with a serious accident that
so impaired his health that he was
compelled to give up the active pur-
suit of his skilled vocations, sine
which time he has been farming near
Carriers, Fla, but when the scarcity
of skilled labor became apparent he
felt it his duty to once more enter
the ranks of workmen who were help
ing to replace the diminishing fleet
of merchant ships and do his bit
towards winning the war. He en-
tered employment in the Pensacola
navy yard, where he was at work
when stricken by the Spanish influ-
enza. He so far recovered from this
as to be able to be up and about and
was thinking of resuming his duties
when he was attacked by the pneu-
monia from which he died. He was
sick about two weeks. Since coming
to Florida about nine years ago he
has made his home wiwth his cousin,
w. N. Hartgrove and family at Gar
niers,
