DEATH CLAIMS EARLY SETTLER OF DAYTONA
MRS. MARY L. SPENCER DIED SUNDAY MORNING AT HER HOME ON NORTH BEACH ST.,—FUNERAL HELD THIS MORNING
Mrs. Mary L. Spencer, widow of the late Capt. C. H. Spencer, died at about 8:30 am, Sunday at her home on North Beach street.
Funeral services were held at the residence at 10:00 o'clock this morning, Rev. Wm. J. Drew, minister of the Congregational church, officiating, and the interment was made in Pinewood cemetery, beside the remains of the first husband of the deceased, J. B. Caldwell, who died in 1886. Capt. Spencer, a well known attorney of this city in its early history, died in April of 1906. The pall bearers were selected from among the early residents of Daytona and the funeral was attended by quite a number of the early settlers to whom Mrs. Spencer was best known. There were very beautiful floral tributes from relatives and friends. Members of the Congregational church choir sang, Lead Kindly Light," [sic] and "Abide With Me."
Mrs. Spencer, who was about 80 years of age, was a native of England. She came to Daytona with her husband and children in 1883, from Plainfield, Ill, and has ever since made this city her home. She had been in failing health for several years, but had only been confined to her bed for the past two or three weeks.
The deceased is survived by a son and two daughters and several grandchildren, the children of Fred J. Caldwell, of this city. The daughters are Miss Julia Caldwell, who made her home with her mother on North Beach street, and Mrs. L. L. Mansfield, of Canon City, Colo., who has been wired of her mother's death and is expected to come to Daytona, probably arriving on Saturday. All are well known in Daytona and vicinity and will have the sympathy of many friends in their bereavement. Miss Caldwell has been in ill health for a number of years and is now in a serious condition.
