A stroke at 12:45 o'clock Monday afternoon resulted in the instant
death of Newton Burnette, 74, in the dining room of the Home hotel,
Carmichaels, which he had operated for many years. Born and reared in
Carmichaels, the deceased had spent the last 18 winters in St.
Petersburg, Fla., and had been planning to leave the latter part of
this month for the South. He was widely known through his management
of the hotel and because of his active interest in sports. Mr.
Burnette, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Burnette, had been a
lifelong member of Carmichaels Presbyterian church. Surviving are his
widow, Mrs. Lou Adamson Burnette, and the following daughters, Mrs.
George Robinson, Carmichaels; Mrs. Arthur McCormick, Nemacolin; Mrs.
Harry Finley, Pittsburgh.  Eleven grandchildren also survive. Funeral
services will be held in the family home at 2:30 Wednesday afternoon
in charge of Rev. J. C. Trench of Prosperity, assisted by Rev. J. S.
Miller, pastor of the Carmichaels Presbyterian church.  Burial will be
in Carmichaels cemetery. (Herald - Oct. 12, 1937)
