POPULAR CITIZEN
TAKEN BY DEATH
To the rapidly lengthening list of prominent citizens of Hopkinsville who haze answered the call of death there was added at midnight Saturday night the name of Garner E. Dalton. To most people the announcement of Mr, Dalton's death came somewhat as a surprise, for in the past few days it had become generally circulated that his condition was slightly improved; But those close to him realized that his condition was hopeless and it was only a question of time until the end would come,
Mr. Dalton's health had been declining for fully a year and since Christmas he had lost strength and vitality very rapidly. Several days ago, his 'condition became such that he was taken to the Jennie Stuart hospital, for treatment. But the heart affection and other complications from which he suffered, were too strongly intrenched in his system to be overcome even by the skilled efforts of the. physicians attending him and the faithful and tender nursing.
"Mr. Dalton was forty-eight years of age, the son of S. W. and Sarah Jane Dalton. He was born at Springfield, Tenn., but when he was a child, his parents moved to Hopkinsville and his father entered the brick business, which has been followed by other members of the family.
He was a member of the First Baptist church and was true to his profession of faith and active in the work of the church.
'He is survived by his wife and one son, Edward Dalton, one brother, T. M. Dalton, and two sisters, Mrs. Gus Holeman, of Springfield, Tenn., and Mrs. Lucien Davis, of this city.
