Funeral For Flora Is Delayed For Son

Head of Shirt Concern Dies Suddenly in Home

Funeral arrangements for C. M. Flora, president of the Flora Shirt company, will not be completed until Sunday when his son, Carl, who is attending a Washington, D. C. law school arrives in the city, it was announced Friday by members of the family.

Flora died suddenly early Friday morning at his home, 815 West Eleventh Street, from heart failure. He was 56 years old.

He had been a resident of Oklahoma City since 1911 when he moved his shirt factory here from Independence, Kan.

Flora was born near Liberty, Kan., April 22, 1868. His education was received in Kansas schools, and he became owner of his own factory at 34 years of age. He had been engaged in the shirt manufacturing business for the last twenty-two years.

Active in civic and church affairs, Flora made scores of friends in the city and through business association was known throughout the state. He was a deacon in the First Presbyterian church.

He is survived by his wife and two sons, Carl and Clarence. Clarence lives with his parents.
