      Death of Orln Hobart.
      The Buchanan County Review pub
      lished at Wluthrop, la., contains the
      following notice of the death of Orln
      Hobart, a brother of Mauley and Amos
      Hobart, late of this town aud remembered
      by many of the older generatlou
      of Homer people:
      Orln Hobart was born July 81, 1814,
      in Homer, Cortland county, N. Y., aud
      fell asloep In Wlnthrop, Iowa, December
      1,1001), aged 80 years, four months.
      He moved to Richmond, Illinois, iu
      1845. Twenty-five years ago ho moved
      to Woodstock, III., where he lived till
      the death of his wife in 1808, since
      which time he has lived with his daughter
      in Iowa. For over seventy years he
      had been a member of the Congregational
      church and for forty or fifty years
      superintendent in tho Sunday schools
      and very active Iu all ohurch work. A
      good and a just man has gone to his re-
      ?Wward.
      "Mr. Hobart was known to only a
      few Wlnthrop people, but the few who
      did know him found in him a man of
      sterling worth, and one who loved his
      fellow men. His deep love for children
      was seen in h|s relations to the Junior
      C. E. society of tho Congregational
      church and to a few of the neighboring
      children who delighted to run in and
      have a chat with "Grandpa." Mr.
      Hobart strove to live a consistent christian
      life and though uaable to mingle in
      social circles, because of physical disabilities,
      yet his influence for good upon
      ,those who came in contact with him
      was most marked.
      "A brief funeral service was held at
      the home of W. Hildreth, Tuesday
      evening, and then the body was taken
      to the train to be carried to Richmond,
      Illinois, for burial. The words of St.
      Paul make a most fitting memorial to
      bis life: 'I have fought the good fight;
      I have finished my course; I have finished
      my course; 1 have kept the faith.' "
