Clarence Norton Dead Passed Away
at home of parents Monday forenoon.

Clarence Norton, who had been sick for about two weeks with pneumonia and brain fever, having been brought home from the Suring hospital, where he had been taken from Lakewood where he was employed about two weeks ago, died about 11:15 o’clock Monday forenoon at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Norton.

His death did not come as a surprise as it was feared when he was brought home that he could not recover and he had frequently during his illness been so delirious as to require considerable force to restrain him.

Deceased was born in Oconto May 12, 1882 and lived his whole life here except while employed elsewhere and was noted for his generous, kindly disposition. He is survived by his father, step mother, one brother Charles of Mellon, Wis, his twin sister, Mrs. Arthur Casson of Marinette, and three other sisters, Mrs. Lenoard Steffon of Hortonville, Miss Christina Norton of Marinette and Miss Etta, Oconto, also one step sister Gertrude and three step brothers, Floyd, Willard and John Brown.

The funeral was held from St. Joseph’s Church at 9:00 this morning, Rev. Sebach officiating with internment at the Catholic cemetery. All the relatives above were with him a portion of the time during his illness and at the funeral.
