The community was saddened on
Monday, April "a, by the death of Or
rim @. Hartman. In September last
he was kicked in the chest by horse,
and although this blow was not con-
sidered dangerous at the time, it is
thought that it was the cause of the
affectation of his heart which resulted
in his death. During the fall, he was
apparently as we'll as ever, and in the
winter he was about most of the time.
Not till two weeks before his death
did his condition seem alarming, and
only few, even of his most intimate
friends, were prepared for the worst.
Seldom are we called upon to mourn
the death of one who caused more
wide spread grief Known and loved
by all, he leaves empty place which
no one can fill.
