Grandson Is Born as Horace Marble Passes Away.

The Lake County Times notes the fact that while Horace Marble was breathing his last at Wheatfield, a little son was being ushered into the home of his daughter in Crown Point, Mrs. Ruth Salisbury, wife of Dr. Allen L. Salisbury. The Times also says: “Mr. Marble was formerly one of Crown Point’s - wealthiest men and most prominent republican office holders. He was auditor of Lake county for three years and had a marvelous acquaintance. After retiring from office, he also retired from politics and settled down on his ranch near Wheatfield. Besides his wife, Mrs. Marcia Marble, are left four children as follows: Mrs. J. Wesley Ott, Mrs. Bernice Clark, Mrs. A. L. Salisbury and his only son, Ward Marble.”
