CITY OFFICIALS ATTEND FUNERAL

Abraham Hart, Dallas County Pioneer, Died Sunday at Reinhardt



Street Commissioner S. Bev Scott and Acting Fire Chief Tom Myers went
yesterday morning to Reinhardt to attend the funeral service for Abraham Hart,
a Dallas County pioneer, who died Sunday at the age of 92 years. He had lived
in the county about thirteen years when Mr. Scott came here with his parents
in 1857 and the two had always been friends, Mr. Hart having taken a fancy to
Mr. Scott, who came to Dallas at the age of 4 years. Interment was in White
Rock Cemetery, near the city.

Dallas had been Mr. Hart's home for many years and the county for more sixty-
nine years. Several years ago he sold for $80,000 in gold a farm of eighty
acres, now part of Munger Place. It had cost Mr. Hart about $1 per acre some
fifty years before..
