  	"Dad" Applegate Dead", "His Hotel at Cheesequake Noted Resort for Sportsmen" ..... Charles M. Applegate, familiarly called 'Dad' by his acquaintances for many years, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Edward Hartenstein, at Freneau, on Monday aged 79 years. Mr. Applegate had been failing for some time and his death was due to general debility. Mr. Applegate was the son of William and Matilda Applegate, who kept the hotel at Cheesequake Creek. This hotel has been operated by the Applegate family for over 100 years. About four years ago, 'Dad', left it and came to Freneau with his wife, where they have since lived. The hotel at the Creek is now run by Wood W. Applegate, a brother of the deceased. "Dad' Applegate was an all-around sporting man and his hotel at the creek was the headquarters for many prominent men who devoted a part of their time to fishing. Governors Ludlow and Abbott were frequent visitors there, as were also politicians from all over the state. The cuisine of the hotel was superior to most country hotels and a chicken dinner was always served to guests and every attention paid them so the reputation of the hotel was maintained and extended as headquarters for sporting men. Besides his widow, Mr. Applegate leaves five children, all grown. They are Mrs. Lois Hartenstein, Richard and J.E. Applegate of Freanu, Mrs. Mary B. Snyder and Stanton Applegate of Perth Amboy. One brother and four sisters also survive him. They are Wood W. Applegate and Miss Elsie M. Applegate of Morgan. Mrs. Meta Clark and Mrs. Elizabeth Perrine of New York and Mrs. Mary A. Martin of Long Branch. The funeral services were held at Mr. Hartenstein's home in Freneau at 1:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon (March 29) and internment was in Christ Cemetery, South Amboy.
