His death cast a shadow over the entire community in which he lived. Mr. Hinton had been sick for several weeks with typhoid fever and although every possible medical attention was given him, his condition grew more serious every day until the final hour came. His death was a peculiarly sad one. Mr. Hinton had lived at home with his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hinton, both of whom are very old, a sister and an afflicted brother. He was a young man, only twenty-five years of age, and looked after the entire business on the farm. It was upon him that all the responsibilities and burdens rested. He cared for his father and family and was a devoted son. His death has left a vacancy in the home circle which cannot be filled. Mr. Hinton was a young man who had many friends. Perfectly fair to all of his business dealings, of an affable and pleasing disposition, he was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. The interment took place at the family burying ground near his home and the funeral was largely attended.
