John HalcrCW.

There died at Bowesmont IN Thurs
day, April 18th, man who lett life re-
cord which deserves more than pass
ing notice. Not that he was great, in the
sense of standing above his fellows as a
genius, not that he was distinguished by
more than average talent, but because
he was a man, who more than most
succeeding in filling to fuller extent
that part Of his work in the world to
which his Maker had assigned him.
John Halcrow's life work is done. As
pioneer in Canada, and in Dakota, as
the father of a large family, as farmer,
as a Christian member of the Methodist
church, as politician and prohibition
i>t, as citizen and neighbor, his work
was we'll done in every Sense and he has
therefore ''entered into the JOY Of his
Lord"
Such men as John Halcrow are the
real foundation stones Of the nation.
They do not occupy the eye of the pass
ing throng in their lifetime, but when
they are taken away, we realize that they
are the supports to the whole fabric.
The cycle of a mans life is not to be
judged by the diameter of the curve. but
by the perfection and completeness OF
the circle. John Halcrow's life was well
rounded.
He was born IN Scotland: May 18th,
1S41, emigrated to Canada in 1873 and
then to Dakota in March. 1854 He was
married to Elizabeth Manson in 1854.
The widow and ten children remain to
mourn for loving husband and father
All were present at the time of death.
The funeral held on Saturday was
largely attended.

Hutchinson of Casselton, Cooper Of
