Hosbrook, after II years res
idence in that institution
age go years.
The deceased was born at Indi-
annapolis, Indiana, is 1916, came
to Harrison county, Iowa, in
1867, where he resided until he
became mentally afflicted some
II years ago, at which time his
friends, after due constellation,
thought it best to send him to
the asylum where proper atten-
ton could be given hoping
thereby to restore him to health,
but failed.
On his coming to this county
in 1867, he farmed, and taught
school, and was a man highly
respected by all who knew him.
The remains were brought to
this city on Sunday and con-
veyed to the residence of his
brother, A. B. Hosbrook, where
a short religious service was
had and then the body was con-
veyed to Oak Grove cemetery

responding to the call Of Uncle
