Was Familiar Figure About Town and
Known and Liked by All.

P~leasantville and Atlantic County
was shocked on Thursday when the
news spread that Daniel w. Macmillan
had died, for Mac, as he was famil-
iarly known, was a familiar figure and
was acquainted with nearly everyone.
The announcement was all the more
shocking because Of the s~uddenness,
he having been in the best of health.
He had done special police duty dur
ing the night and retired about 4 o.
clock in the morning. 1t was when
his wife went to call him for breakfast
about $50 o'clock in the morning that
she discovered he was dead. A phys
ician was Immediately summoned, who
pronounced that he had been dead
about an hour.
His passing remove from this Sec
ton of New Jersey one of it's most
active and most useful citizens. Mr..
Macmillan was born in New York IS
years ago. He made his early school

and then went to Yale, from which in
stitution he was graduated. He lived
in Pleasantville ten years during
which time he was always deeply in
terested In the Christian Endeavor
He was president of the County c. E.,
vice-president of the State %organiza-
ton and president of the South Jersey
body at the time of his death. He
was an elder of the First Presbyterian
Church of Pleasantville.
For many years Mr.. Macmillan was
a newspaper correspondent and ac-
quilted himself quite creditably. He
was affiliated with Keystone Lodge of
Masons, was a member of the Pleas
antville Chamber of Commerce and of
the Atlantic City Press Club.

ty, was without malice and had at all
times a desire to help his fellow man.

widow and two sons, Stephen and Wal

SOUND. REASONS GIVEN FOR
HAVING COUNTY SEAT HERE
Secretary of Chamber of Commerce r.
3. Wootton Expresses His Views.

Many sound reasons for the location
of the Court House and other county
institutions at P%leasantville in the
event of their removal from MAYS
Landing are contained in an interview
given out by Thomas B. Wootton, sec
rotary of the Chamber of Commerce.
Chief among the contentious adj
yanced by MI. Wootton for the selec-
ton Of Pleasantville as a site for the
county buildings are the accessibility
of the mainland town from all points
throughout the county; the saving
which would result by construction of
the Court House and other buildings
adjacent to the almshouse and county
asylum on land. which the county now
owns at Smiths Landing; the feast
bility of using prison labor on the
county farm from which vegetables
are now supplied the county wards.
and the desire of a great many mem
bers of the legal fraternity to erect
the Court House at a point where
would be secured the peace and quiet
which would be lacking. were the Court
House to be built in busting Atlantic
City. Mr.. Wootton's interview in full
follows:
Il have heard much discussion and
have observed considerable publicity
anent a proposed change of the county
seat of Atlantic County. There is no
question, | dare say, in the minds of
any of the county residents as TO the
unfairness of compelling the majority
users of the court buildings and rec
ords to suffer the inconvenience of
the present location at Mays Landing.
And yet for our fear that removal of
these buildings from Mays Landing
might greatly injure it, and because
possibly no one has desired to take
the initiative in shouldering the work
