Johnston died shortly after noon
last Monday morning in a Grove
hospital, ,following a brief illness.
During the past several years, how-
ever, the man had been subject to oc-
casional periods of atute sickness.
Funeral services were conducted by
members of the Pacific Grove Ma-

Johnston was 64 years old at the
time of his death. At the clcse of an

Enters Bank Business
.It *was 40 years ago that Johnston,
accompanied by his brother Charles,
Arst came to Pacific Grove. When he
entered ·the transfer business at th/t
time, he began his long and influ-
ential career in the commercial and
public life of Monterey Peninsula.
In 1910- Johnston became a direc-
tor of the old Bank of Pacific Grove,

institution. ·Four years later, when

And so Pacific Grove's celebrated
rogue court issue will appear on the
municipal .election ballot iI] April,
after all.
The matter was settled last night,
when the Grove city councll treated
a small audience to another spec-
tacle of factional warfare-perhaps
the most rousing spe,ptacle. · of the
sort the present council has ever of-
fared.
The vote of four to three against
Councilman B. A. Lee's motion . to
rescind the council's former action
calling for a public vote on the rogue
court case gives no idea of the battle
which cheerfully blazed in the city
hall, Harsh words were said and
blood pressures rose. And the rogue
court issue remained on the coming
ballot.
Vote Is Close
Thus, when the April election rolls
around, citizens will decide at the
polls whether br not they want the
rogue court to remain where it is in
Jewel Park, opposite the new mu-
zeum, or whether they want it taken .
somewhere else. It's all ·tied up with i
Pacific Grove's still-nebulous park
and playground pro#ram.
