Funeral of Mrs. Carnal

The funeral services for the late Mrs. Florence Williamson Carnal, who died at Phoenix, Arizona, June 7th, were held at the home of James Carnal and from the Presbyterian church in Havre, June 16th 1908.

Florence Williamson Carnal was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Graham Williamson of Arbilla, North Dakota. She was born at that place 25 years ago the 1st of June, and her life was spent there with the exception of a certain part of her school years when she took a course of study at Grand Forks. She was united in marriage at Arbilla to Attorney Florian A. Carnal, Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1902, and came directly to Havre where she has lived to endear herself to her host of friends by her winning ways and pureness of life. Her stay in Havre has not been uninterrupted; she has spent some time in Fort Benton with her husband who was elected county attorney; and three successive summers she has visited Arizona in quest of health, which she sought so diligently and so patiently but sought in vain. The last trip to Arizona was made in company with her parents. Her father was called home sometime since on account of business, but her mother remained with her throughout. The husband was called to her bedside about a month ago and remained with her, returning with the remains. Her last visit to Phoenix was on Easter day, after which she sank very rapidly.

As her life drew rapidly to its close her love for humanity grew broader and broader until all races and colors had in her an advocate for, she said, "they are all God's people." Her mind was clear to the last. When the final day came she was ready to go and did not fear death. When evening came she sent her love to relatives and friends who had remembered her by word or message. Then she said, "It is growing dark! Where am I?" Her husband answered, "You are going home." She answered, "Yes, open the door, open the door," and the valley of tears was passed.

She leaves behind her to mourn her loss her husband, Florian A. Carnal, County attorney of Chouteau County, Norma, her four-year-old daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Graham Williamson, her parents, William G. Williamson of Arabilla, and Alfred Williamson of Los Angeles, her brothers; Mrs. Frank McHaffie of Missoula and Mrs. James S. Carnal of Havre, her sisters; and a host of friends.
