FRANCIS T. HOPKINS DEAD
 
Following an operation to relieve an internal trouble which had confined him 
to his home for about two weeks, Francis T. Hopkins died Thursday afternoon, 
February 3, at the Morehead hospital in Weiser.
 
F. T. Hopkins belonged to the later group of pioneer settlers who came here 
when the permanent growth of the community had begun and have taken part in 
that development.  The immediate reason for his coming was to help his 
brother, A. J. Hopkins, in the construction of the Washington county court 
house for which the latter had the contract.  
 
In his later years the deceased was caretaker at the East Side grade school 
and there among teachers and pupils he will be mourned and missed almost as by 
the members of his family.
 
Francis Theodore Hopkins was born July 25, 1849, at Greenwich, Ohio, and was 
married to Josephine E. Higgins, who survives him, January 15, 1880.  There 
are also three daughters, Mrs. Ann Coulter, of New Plymouth; Mrs. Caroline 
Miller of Rexburg, and Mrs. Hazel Hinckley, of Seattle.  He also leaves his 
brother, A. J. Hopkins, who came from Ohio to Idaho in 1889, and three 
brothers and one sister at the old Ohio home.
 
Funeral service will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 from Northam & McCann 
chapel in charge of Rev. W. W. Deal, a former Weiser pastor and friend of the 
family.
