The last sad rites in honor of D. C. Barronett, who died last week in Spokane were held at the cemetery in the city of Ritzville last Thrusday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Ellis B.Harris of Spokane. (Funeral services had been held in Spokane previous to interment in Ritzville)

Daniel C. Barronett was born in Peoria County, Ill., May 20, 1848 and died at his home in Spokane July 20,1920. Few local people knew of his illness, as he had been down here a little over two months ago, greeting old friends in his uual hearty manner, showing no signs of ill health.

At the age of 20 he removed to Nebraska and it was there, he was united in marriage to Miss Harriett Doty. Coming west they located in Waitsburg, Wash., for about three months and on Dec. 25, 1888 settled in Ritzville, which remaind the family home until 1907, when with advancing years, Mr. Barronett retired and removed to Spokane. Eight children were born to the marriage, but only three are living. They are Mrs. Edna Starr of Hanford, Calif., Earl of Malin, Wash., and Miss Opal of Spokane. In 1905 Mrs. Barronet died and shortly thereafter Mr. Barronett married his brother's widow, Mrs. Thurz A. Barroneet, who surivives him.

Mr. Barroneet conducted the first warehouse in Ritzville and was the first grain buyer. He bought a half interst in that grain warehouse business, that had been started by Mr. Whittlesey, their warehouse being the westerly part of what is now the O'Neil Grain Company's warehouse on Division street. Subsequently two additions were built which are still standing. Investing in farm land at an early date, Mr. Barronette lived to see them reach consideral value. His estate is estimated at $60,000 according to the Will filed in Spokane County for probate. The widow is left with the family home in Spokane and a $2,000; a gift of $20 each is made to the stepchildren; and the remainder of the estate is to be divided among his children.
