Robert Cheever Barton, 77, of Lima, former editor of The Chronicle-Telegram from 1964-72, died early Sunday morning at home, following a lengthy illness.

He was born in Bellefontaine, Ohio, April 18, 1906. He graduated from Indiana University in 1928 with a degree in journalism.

Mr. Barton started his journalism careet as editor of a tiny paper in Rushville, Ind., and moved to the newspaper in Springfield, Ohio, after a year.

He joined the Lima News in 1936 and was editor there from 1940-56. He also was an edtor at The Plain Dealer from 1956-57.

Upon his retirement from The C-T, Mr. Barton said his main goal as an editor, and as a person, was to "live as an honest-to-God Christian" with the Golden Rule as a guide.

"You never know if a story will cause serious damage, if you're making a really serious mistake, but you try to live the Golden Rule and do the best you can," he said.

He is survived by a son, Robert J. and a daughter, Mrs. E. S. (Elizabeth) Evans, both of Lima.
