DEATH OF HUGH WARNOcK.
Well Known Citizen Succumbs to an At
tack of Paralysis.


tack of Paralysis.
Hugh Warnock died this morning
at 1928 O'Clock at his home on Sec
ond street from the effects of a stroke
OF paralysis sustained last Thursday.
BY his death the business community
loses one of its best men. and one
who commanded the respect of all
who met him. For many wears
he was one of the leading men
in the city council. having served
three terms as an alderman. and
during the absence of Mavor +.
+. Reynolds was acting MAYOR at the
time when the city started the great
Fifth avenue sewer. This improve
ment stands today as monument to
his faithful and conscientious duty as
a servant of the people. In politics he
was always a republican. Mr.. War
mock was born March 3, 1925. at
Ballyferries, County Down, Ireland.
He left home when IA years of age for
Newtonwards, Ireland. where he
learned the soap and candle business.
AT this place he married Miss Martha
Davidson July ID. 1S49. and soon
after sailed for America. Crossing
the Allegheny mountains he settled in
Pittsburg, Pa, where he followed his
trade. In the spring of 1858 he re-
moved to Rock Island. In August of
that year he formed partnership
with James Kelly and established the
present soap factory. This relation
continued until March. 1866, when
Robert Ralston bought the inter-
est of Mr.. Kelly. and the firm of
Warnock & Ralston was formed.
Early in life Mr.. Warnock united
with the Presbyterian church of his
native home, and upon his arrival in
Pittsburs joined the Associate Re-
formed Presbyterian church. There
being no church of his choice in Rock
Island he helped to organize in
July. 1854, what afterward became
the United Presbyterian. He was
life long elder and treasurer of the
church, and until 1895 was the SUPER
intendent of the Sabbath school. He
was frequently selected as a delegate
to the general assembly and synod of
the church, and at one time was a
member of the senate of Monmouth
college. His piety and sound judg
ment made him leading advisor in
the councils of the church at home
and abroad. His wife died in Janu-
airy, 1890. Their only child, J. ID.
Warnock, is left to mourn the loss of
a father who lived for eternity as well
as time. The funeral will take place
from his late home Saturdaviat 9 D. m.
The remains of W. p. Jones. who
died of heart disease at Atlantic. Iowa.
were brought here for interment to-
day. He was Il brother-in-law of W.
+. Hynes, of this city, and Will
Crouch, of Sears. Mr.. Jones formerly
resided in this city. but recently
moved to Atlanta, where he repre-
scented the Mccormack Binder com
pany, of Chicago.

An unusual circumstance has de.

ster. the mother, and Trury Palmer,
the sister, of Mrs. Robinson. went on
the stand and testified against her.

faithfulness. Sitting aside Mrs. Rob-
inson in the court room is Mrs. James
Robinson, stepmother of the former S
husband. She will testify in behalf
of Mrs. Robinson, who will seek to

band was sufficiently cruel to her to
warrant the jury in dissolving the
bonds of matrimony existing between
them. The jury trying the case is
