DOUGLASS ELLIS HOPKINS.

In the death of Douglass Ellis Hop
kins one of the respected pioneers of
the town of Fulton has been taken
away from the community. He was
born in Argyle, Washington county,
New York state, March 81, 1848. His
parents, James and Anna Hopkins, be-
longed to those hardy and courageous
ad yenturers who in 1851 crossed the
country from their eastern home to
Wisconsin in wagon, carrying their
belongings with them. In 1854 they
settled on farm in the town of Full
ton. Here their only living son, Doug
lass Ellis, grew up. He attended the
early rural school, and as young man
attended Milton college for some time.
October %, 1873, he took as his bride
Carrie Schoonover. During AZ years
Mr.. and Mrs. Hopkins gave their labor
and influence to the upbuilding of the
community. Mrs. Hopkins died five
years ago. They had only one child, a
daughter, Mrs. Mabel Wood, who with
five children mourn the loss of a good
father and grandfather. Mr.. Hopkins
had always enjoyed good health until
two weeks ago when he was taken i'll
with pneumonia. Everything possible
was done for him, but his age and the
nature of the malady counted against
him, and he passed away last Monday
at 80 in the afternoon. The funeral
was conducted from the home Thurs
day of this week and the body laid to
rest in the Fassett cemetery. Mr.. J..
N. Davidson, retired Congregational
minister of Madison, an old friend Of
the family, officiated at the home and
the grave. The following acted as pail
bearers: VIM. Bradley, Seth Pope ST.,
VIM. Cox, Henry Cox, Frank Brace

The superintendent of water works
and one alderman were down to Beloit
the last of the past week to investigate
the electric power water pump used
there. One of the steam boilers in the
home power station is giving trouble,
and the council is making Investigations
as to what sort of replacement should
be made, if found necessary.
AT special business meeting of
the Congregational church Monday
evening, Rev. Atkins presented his
resignation in order to accept a call to
church in California. The meeting
refused to accept Rev. Atkins resig-
nation, but granted him a six months
leave of absence. Easter Sunday serv-
ices will be the last conducted by Rev.
Atkins before leaving for the West.
Rev. Atkins has by his ability and ap-
plication to work endeared himself to
the members of his church, and by his
pleasing personality and quiet good
sense he has won for himself large
circle of friends outside of his church;
all hoping that Rev. Atkins may have
very enjoyable visit in sunny Califor-
MIA, and at the expiration of his leave
of absence, return to Edgerton to con-
tinue the work he has so well begun.

While the compulsory education laws
OF these two states are not yet work
