The Death of Mr. C. Morton Stewart
Baltimore Press

The news of the sudden death of Mr. C. Morton Stewart, which occurred at Old Point Comfort yesterday afternoon, will be a great shock to the people of Baltimore and to Marylanders generally, as well as to thousands of people outside of the State who knew and esteemed the deceased. The circumstance that Mr. Stewart was in moderately good health, being debilitated only by the severe heat of the past few days and the fact that his demise was wholly unexpected, will serve to accentuate the grief of his friends and the regret of the public.

Mr. Stewart was in all respects a citizen of whom the State and city might well be proud. During a long business career he had been prominently identified with enterprises that looked to the advancement of this city as a great commercial port. In the furtherance of all undertakings that promised municipal development he was untiring, his devotion to the public good being conspicuous on all occasions.

Mr. Stewart's field of business operations was ample and far-reaching. As the owner of a fleet of vessels plying to and from the coffee ports of South American and as a coffee merchant his transactions were important and promotive of the general prosperity. For a long period he was a most influential director in the National Bank of Baltimore. In public affairs Mr. Stewart was notably broad minded and progressive. He was formerly a vice-president of the "Reform League," an organization which has done so much for the purification of politics in this city. At the time of his death he was President of the Board of Trustees of Johns Hopkins University, in which splendid institution of learning he always evinced an active and substantial interest. He was always a student and recognized everywhere as a cultural scholar.

As a man Mr. Stewart was admired and loved by all who knew him for noble qualities of head and heart. His generosity knew no bounds. To the unfortunate he never failed to extend a helping hand and words of comfort. His benefactions among the poor were innumerable. As a husband and father he was affectionate, kind, and devoted. The generous hospitality of his home was noted throughout Maryland. The loss of such a man is irreparable to any community.

The first home to be built on "Cliffeholme" lands was "The Rookery," which was built for Fanny and Edward. They later moved to New York, where their town home was on 47th Street. Their summer home was first at "Idlewild" in Narragansett, Rhode Island, and then "Beech Lawn" at Irvington-on-Hudson.
