Funeral services for Robert J. Brent will be held this morning at 10 o'clock at St. Michael's church, the Rev. Father Fullerton officiating. Pallbearers will be F.C. Brent, James C. Watson, Thomas W. Brent and William O. Turtle.
Many friends of the family were grieved to learn of the death of Mr. Brent, which occurred at 4 o'clock Friday morning at his home, 100 West Jackson street, after an illness of several months.
Mr Brent is the last male member of one of Pensacola's oldest families and was 65 years of age at the time of his death. He was a son of the late Capt. Thomas W. Brent of the United States and Confederate navies, and Merced Gonzalez Brent.
The Brent and Gonzalez families for many years were closely identified with the early history of Pensacola, socially and in financial circles.
Mr. Brent is immediately survived by two sisters, Miss Pauline Brent and Mrs. E.O. Saltmarsh, and a number of nephews and nieces.
