Mrs. Helen Mar Paine Hollingworth, died Monday night at the Parkview Hospital, from the effects of a fall received several weeks ago in the office of the East Florida Savings & Trust Company. Though 95 years of age she had been coming alone to Palatka from her home at Orange Mills and attending to shopping and seeing after financial interests. It was while on one of these trips that she fell in the bank building and received what proved to be fatal injuries. The deceased was the only daughter of David and Anne Wheaten Harding Paine of Athens, Penn., and was the widow of Frank Radford Hollingworth, who departed this life many years ago. She was born in Snow Hills, Maryland in 1832. With her husband she located in 1888 at Orange Mills, though they had previously spent several seasons in Florida. After the death of her husband, she continued to reside in the old home place at Orange Mills. Though living alone for nearly forty years she was not adverse to company, but enjoyed the companionship of her friends, and was active in the good works of the Episcopal Church, of which she had long been a faithful member and liberal contributor.
She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Helen Mar Hill Murray, of Chicago, two granddaughters, Miss Helen Frances Murray of Chicago, and Mrs. Nannie Murray Hawley, of Bridgeport, Conn., and by two great-grandchildren, Murray and Nancy Hawley.
The funeral services were held at 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon from St. Mark's Episcopal Church; Rev. Francis B. Wakefield officiating. The interment was in West View Cemetery. The following gentlemen acted as pallbearers: Messrs. Richard F. Adams, H. A. Miller, J. H. Millican, E. W. Elliott, C. H. Bachelder and J. H. Haughton.
