Little Olive, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Houseworth, died at the home of her grandparents, at Stuart, November 29, after eight weeks of suffering. Little Olive, as she was familiarly known, was a beautiful, lovable child and won the love of everyone with whom she come in contact. She was the joy of her parents and their hearts are almost broken by this sad affliction; their darling has accomplished her mission on earth and is happy in Our Father’s tender care; one more treasure in heaven. May the sorrowing friends so direct their lives that they may be permitted to enjoy eternity with their darling baby. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Taylor, of Stuart, at Penn Center Thursday, Dec. 1st, after which the remains were interred in the new cemetery.
