Mr. Stephen N. Gladwin died at his home on Julia street, Titusville, on Monday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock after a lingering illness, from kidney disease.
The funeral services, which were conducted by Rev. Wm. Stones, at the residence on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock, were largely attended, attesting the honor and respect in which he was held by the citizens of Titusville.
The interment was made in the Titusville cemetery, the following gentlemen acting as pall bearers: Messrs. G. F. Duren, J. R. Walker, P. J. Hall, Harry Wilson, P. G. Walton and F. A. Losley. The Advocate joins the many friends in extending sympathy and condolence to the bereaved family.
Mr. Gladwin was born at Haddam, Conn., on November 13th, 1830, and was nearly 79 years of age at the time of his death.
He came to Florida in 1879, settling at Melrose for four years, then moved to Palatka, and in 1890 came to Titusville, and with the late Mr. T. T. Wetmore, engaged in the manufacture of ice, it being the first ice factory established on Indian River. After eight years, he sold his interest in the ice factory to his partner and devoted his time to the building of boats and for the past four years of his active life he was connected with the East Coast Lumber & Supply Co., as manager of their Titusville business. About a year ago, declining health compelled him to relinquish all active work, since which time he has been up and down in his fight against kidney disease.
He was married at Haddam, Conn., in 1855, and is survived by his wife and three children, Mr. R. R. Gladwin, of Fort Pierce; Mr. R. D. Gladwin and Miss Susie Gladwin, of Titusville, and three brothers and one sister in the North. One brother, Mr. A. R. Gladwin, who spent the winters for ten years in Florida, preceded him to the great beyond some three years ago.
Besides being a good and enterprising citizen, Mr. Gladwin was a conscientious christian gentleman, having united with the Congregational church in his early life, when just a man, and after coming to Titusville he transferred to the Presbyterian church, however, and extremely defective hearing has deprived him of attending church of late years.
When his condition became critical, his son, Mr. R. D. Gladwin, who was in New York, was communicated with and came at once, arriving home on Sunday afternoon and had a talk of about twenty minutes with his father, when the latter lost consciousness, which he never fully regained before the end came at 3:30 o'clock on Monday afternoon.
