PULASKI BROWARD,
WELL KNOWN HERE,
DIED YESTERDAY

End Came at 6 P.M. – Funeral Today – Was a Confederate Veteran

Many in Jacksonville will be surprised and saddened today to learn of the death of Pulaski Broward for it had been only a short time since he was about his usual affairs and seemed to have completely recovered form a recent illness. Mr. Broward, however, had suffered a return of his trouble and was confined to his room for the past few days. Late yesterday afternoon he succumbed to heart failure.
Mr. Broward was a Floridian and all his life had stood for all that was good and true in manhood. Born at the Broward homestead, June 17, 1832, he had followed a quiet but useful path and was by everyone respected for his high sense of honor and rugged integrity. He was the third son of the late Col. John Broward and Mrs. Margaret Broward, educated at Greensboro, N. C., he returned to Florida and engaged in planting until the war between the states broke out. At the call of his southland he volunteered and served under Gen. Joseph E. Johnston through the four year's struggle, as a member of Capt. Martin's battery of light artillery. He was wounded at the battle of Missionary Ridge.
Mr. Broward returned to Florida after the war and resided at the Broward homestead on Cedar Creek, Duval Station, until a few years ago when he moved to his place in Springfield. It was at his Jacksonville home that the end came yesterday at about 6 o'clock.
Of a genial disposition, active and always interested in the affairs of the city and state, he had hosts of friends and all will miss his kindly smile and words of cheer.
Mr. Broward is survived by his wife, two sisters, four sons, a step-son and two daughters. The sisters are Misses Margaret and Florida Broward; the sons, N. C. , R. E., Charles and Pulaski, Jr.; the daughters, Mrs. Charles E. Floyd, Mrs. Charles M. Kaufman and stepson Dan B. Turner, all of this city.
The funeral services will beheld this afternoon at 3 o'clock at St. Mary's Episcopal Church, Laura street, Springfield. The pallbearers will be A. B. Merrill, Walter Rast, Judge H. B. Philips, H. B. Hoyt, Frank Brown and Dr. Freeman. All arrangements are in charge of Moulton & Kyle.
