THE COMMITTEE.
THE PASSING OF A PIONEER

The people of this community were
deeply grieVed on Thursday morning,
December 8, 1909, upon receiving a mes
sage from Des MOines, informing them
that Mr. H. H. Dimick was dead, in
that city. On Saturday morning Mrs.
Dimick her only living child, Mrs. G.
T. Holden, her husband and several
other near relatives arrived with the
body and were met at the train by
delegation of Extra MaSOns who escort
ed th9m to the home of her nephew,
John NJ. Dimiok, where the remains
were temporarily placed. At ten o'clock
the Masons of Exodus, Blue Lodge,
Masons, and ladies of Exodus Chapter,
Order of the Eastern Star, in gOOdly
number met at the Masonic Hall and
marched to the John NJ. Dimick resi-
dence, then carried the body of their
fallen brother to the Extra COngrega-
tiOnal church where a vast audience,
many as the building could possibly
hold, and deep hush pervaded the
entire surroundings. The church was
beautifully decorated, cut flowers and
ported plants being i'll profuSiOn every
where. Rev A. B. Miller, pastor of
the Presbyterian church at Audubon,
Iowa, preached the sermon, using as his
text the words AT evening time there
shall be light" and he very beautifully
brought out the thought that the even
ing, with the beautiful tints at sunset
represented a human life well spent.
Daring the services at the church the
choir sang favOrite hymns, soft and low,
and at the conclusion the procession was
again formed and slowly wound it's way
over to a grave in the Extra Cemetery
where all that is mortal of Uncle H. H.
Dimick was laid to rest, there to await
the call of the Grand Master on high.
The bereaved wife and relatives took
a farewell look at the casket, then they
and the friends turned away with sOr-
rowing hearts and sought their homes
Hiram II. Dimick, one of Iowas oldest
pioneers, died at the home of his daugh
ter Mrs G. E. Holden, Thursday morning
December 8, 1909, at an early hour.
Mr.. Dimick was born at Town of DOSet,
Bennington county, in Vermont, in
1929, and although he has not spent all
his life here, he is well known, being
one of the most prominent Masons in
Iowa. Mr.. DinicK was eighty years of
age at the time of his death. He was a
veteran of the civil war, having fought
his way to the sea with General Sher-
