DEATH OF H. C. PRIEST
Passed Away at Starke Sunday Following Short Illness
Green Cove Springs, Dec. 7. - Friends in Clay County and other sections of northern Florida were shocked to learn of the death of Mr. H. C. PRIEST, which occurred in Starke Sunday. Mr. PRIEST made his home in Green Cove Springs, and went to Starke about three weeks ago when he was taken sick. At first his condition was not considered to be serious, but he steadily grew worse until the end came. "Pat" PRIEST, as he was familiarly called, was born at Belmore, in this county, thirty-four years ago, the son of Mr. H. C. and Mrs. Idela PRIEST, and he spent his entire life in this community, with the exception of short sojourns in the adjoining county of Bradford, where his wife's people lived. About twelve years ago he married Miss Myrtle GRIFFIS, of Starke, and to this union three children were born, Ruth, Ella and Juanita, all of whom are living. Mr. PRIEST is also survived by his wife, his mother, Mrs. Idela PRIEST of Hampton; one brother, Mr. Emory V. PRIEST, assessor of taxes of Clay County and one sister, Mrs. Jessie WILSON, of Lake Worth. Mr. PRIEST was a universal favorite. He was of a cheerful disposition, generous in his estimate of men, loyal to his friends, an indulgent father and a loving husband. His will be a hard place in the affairs of life to fill. For a number of years Mr. PRIEST had been a consistent member of the Baptist Church. Internment was in the Prevatt cemetery, near Starke and funeral services were conducted by Rev. TAYLOR of Hampton, a long time friend of the deceased. The pall bearers were Messrs. J. P. HALL, A. J. MOODY, R. D. FISHER, Gene GRIFFIS, Calvin Glisson, and J. T. HOUSER.
