DEATH or NE. ISAAC STEVENS

After an illness of several weeks,
which was borne with Christian for
tosude and patience, the soul of our
honored and greatly esteemed citi-
zen, Mr.. Isaac Stevens, passed from
earth to the Lord who gave it.
He had reached his S9th year and
all through his earthly pilgrimage
his life was without spot or blemish.
He was, indeed. a Father in Israel.
He was consistent member of the
Baptist church and during the forty
years he lived in Ocala he rarely
if ever missed a service except duding
his last Illness.
He not only attended the morning
and evening service but was a regu-
lar attendant at the mid-week prayer
meetings and at the Sunday school.
The church was his Schechinall and
he was as faithful to his church VOWS
as the early prophets were to the
ark OF the covenant He early be-
came member and remained stead
fast until the end He served on the
school board and could be depended
on in all good works.
The funeral was held from his late
home on South Third street, east,
and in the absence of his beloved
pastor, Rev. w F. Creason, pastor Of
the Presbyterian church, conducted
the services and paid a beautiful and
fitting tribute to his memory.
The Presbyterian choir rendered
softly and sweetly number Of an,
thems and the casket was buried be-
meath profusion of flowers of ap-
propriate design.
The body was borne to it's last rest
ing place by the following members
of the church to which he was so de-
votedly attached: Messrs. w. T. Gary,
John F. Edwards, j. w Akin, d. Neil
Ferguson, w d. earn, Frank Gates
The body rests in Greenwood Gene
terry. May the grass be kept fresh
and the winds blow gently over the
sacred mound.

Orlando. Nov 10-A true bill was
ordered today by the Orange county
grand jury investigating the case
of Lena M. T. Clarke. and an indict-
ment charging the woman with MUIR
der of Fred A. Miltmore, Orlando res
taurant proprietor, in local hotel
here on Aug. 1 of this year will be
filed tomorrow, the court having ad-
journed before the findings could be
presented late this afternoon. Miss
Clarke was not called upon by the
State Attorney Joseph N Jones, to
appear before the jury.
Immediately upon the fling of the
Indictment it is believed the former
West Palm Beach postmistress will
be arraigned, but testimony cannot
be heard for more than a week, since
the docket of the circuit court now
in session is filled until next We'd
nesday, and in all probability the
actual trial will not begin before
week after next. Although Edwin w.
Davis, chief counsel for the accused
woman, refuses to announce the pro-
posed line of defense to be followed,
it is a foregone conclusion that in
sanity will be the plea
Miss Clarke has not been officially
advised of the grand jury's action, but
she does not seem disturbed during
the day by the fact that the grand
jury has been probing into her con-
duct with the possible result Of indict-
ment for murder
1t was during the early afternoon
when the hearings in the Clarke
case ended, and the jury recessed
for dinner. No statement was made
from the jury room as to the find
ings. Prosecuting Attorney Jones
showed evidence of the hard strain
he had been under during the past
two and half days. maintaining his
usual poise and alertness neverthe-
less until it is believed the grand
jury concluded late in the after
noon its investigation of all capital
cases to come before this term of the
circuit court.

Two Hollene Boys
Drowned Sunday

Homer Stith and Guy Dunnigan, of
Hollene, were drowned Sunday morn
ing while swimming in a tank on the
Escabada ranch, They had been
swimming for some time, and were
swinging on wire that was stretched
across the tank.
When the wire broke they were
thrown into deep water and strangled
before they could be rescued. Two
other boys attempted to save them
but nearly lost their own lives in the
attempt. Help arrived too late.
Both boys were past sixteen years
of age and their families have lived in
the Hollene neighborhood for num-
Der of years, They attended the Hol-
lene school during the past term, and
had many friends who mourn their
untimely death.
Funeral services were held Monday
at Hollene by Rev Cameron and Rev.
Wagner.
