Harrison M. Barnett
Marion county has lost another good citizen by the death of Mr. Harrison M. Barnett, who died at his home near Cotton Plant at midnight last night.

"Hat" Barnett, as his friends loved to call him, was 74 years old last month. He was a native of New York state, and came to Marion county thirty-five years ago, first living for three years in Ocala, then removing to the Cotton Plant section, to whose progress and prosperity he has contributed ever since.

Mr Barnett's wife preceded him into rest eternal four years ago. He leaves to mourn his passing beside friends without number three children--Mrs. Thomas Sexton of this city, Mrs. Henry Clark of Fellowship and Mr. B.W. Barnett, manager of King's Business College, Charlotte, N.C.

Mr. Barnett served four years in the Union army, was twice wounded, once captured and escaped, but none esteemed him more than his ex-Confederate neighbors.

The funeral services will be held tomorrow at 4 p.m. at St. Johns church at Cotton Plant, where the remains will be laid beside those of his wife. Rev. J.R. Herndon will officiate.
