Old Pioneer Passes Away.

John Hruska, sr., and old pio-
neer of this place died at the
home of his son Joseph Sunday
morning at 2 o'clock after several
weeks of suffering from a compli-
cation of d lseases. AT the time
of his death he was 81 years and
six months of age. The funeral
was held from the Catholic church
of this place Tuesday morning
where Requiem Mass was offered
and a sermon delivered by Rev.
Bouska, after which. the remains
of the old pioneer were inferred in
the family lot in the adjoining &C.
metery, The floral offerings were
many, as also the attendance as
evidence that the deceased was
highly esteemed.
John Hruska was born in Bohe-
mia and came to this country with
his wife, who preceded him to
eternity, fifteen years ago, in the
spring of 1866 and located in the
state of Iowa. In April, 1870,
they joined the many homestead
ers to this state and took up a
claim I mile southwest of TABOR.
Twenty years ago they retired
from active work turning the farm
over to their son, Joseph, who at
present is residing in town and
with whom the deceased had
been living. Only two sons sur
vive him: John Hruska, who lives
IN Bolivar, Mo, where he moved
from here ten years ago and JOS
eph, who is a business man in
town; FIVE of the children having
died in infancy. He also leaves
asbrother. Frank Hruska, who
lives west of Tabo-. Our sincere
sympathy goes to all who are ag.
grieved by his departure.
