TWO PIONEERS DEAD.
Sherwood Hough, an Old-Time
Politician and Business Man
OfSt. Paul, Passes Away.
Melchoir Funk, a Pioneer in the
Brewing Industry, Dies at His
Home on Duke Street.

The death roll in st. Paul yesterday
recorded in the list the death of one of
the old pioneer politicians and business
men in the person of Sherwood Hough,
who came to this city in 1851, and who
was at one time one of its most promi-
nent citizens. He held many official
positions, as well as many posts of
honor and trust. Sherwood HOugh was
born in New York in 1927 and was sixty
six years old at the time of his death.
Coming to st. Paul in 1851 he was APP
pointed deputy clerk of the district
court, and held the position, with two
intermiSSiOns. till 1860. when he was
elected register Of deeds. In 1854 he
was elected the first city clerk of st.
Paul for the term of two years, and in
1857 he was chosen comptroller, which
office he resigned and was again APP
Ramsey county, holding that posi-
ton from 1868 to 1865, when he
was elected clerk of the supreme court
of the state. and held that office for
three terms by election. Mr.. Hough was
a great Odd Fellow all his life, and held
the offices of grand secretary and grand
treasurer Of the state organization for
ten years. He was a director IN the
first building association organized in
the state, and one of the incorpOratols
and trustees of the Minnesota o. +. Nj.
3. society. In 1876 he commenced the
book and stationery business, in which
he was engaged up to about three years
ago. He was Il gentleman quiet in his
manners and attentive to business, and
much devoted to his family. An un-
fortunate disability IN the use of one
limb prevented him from mingling much
i'll society, but his nature was pleasant
and social to all who knew him. The
GAUGE of death was consumption.
Melchoir Funk, one of the Pioneer
brewery men of st. Paul, and one who
started in the business when it was
merely an infant industry here, died at
his home, S9S Duke street, yesterday.
He came to st. Paul in the early fifties,
and has continued in the brewing bust
ness from a short period after he arrived
here. lie was siXty-four years of age at
the time of his death, and leaves several
children. The funeral will take place
Wednesday afternoon from the resi-
dence.
