DIED
HARTMAN
At Rochester, Minn., on Saturday, July 25, 1903, aged 78 years.
Deceased was born in Stark county, Ohio, on Nov. 6, 1825. In the spring 
of 1853, at the age of 28 years, he left his native State for Rock county,
Wisconsin. The following fall he removed to Fayette county, Iowa. In the 
summer of 1856 he came to Faribault county, Minn., arriving in Winnebago 
City township on August 3, where he files a claim under the preemption 
law on Sections 10 and 15, but at the time of the Indian massacre of 1862
he sold his claim. He then returned and spent the winter in Fayette 
county, Iowa, and in the spring of 1863, on his return to Winnebago City 
township, he purchased a claim of 160 acres on section 7, and suring 
the first winter here worked a part of the time at his trade, shoemaking,
he having made the first pair of boots in this township.
	About two weeks ago Mr. Hartman went to Mayo hospital in Rochester
where he underwent an operation. He came out of the operation nicely and
for a time it looked as if he would recover, but a turn for the worse
occured and medical skill was powerless to save his life.
	Deceased was an honorable, upright man. In the commmunity in 
which he so long lived he was held in the highest esteem. He was a 
consistent Christian and a member of the United Brethren church. Mr. 
Hartman had been three times married--first January 11, 1849, in Ohio,
to Miss Barbara Sanders, who died June 19, 1852. His second wife died 
April 3, 1877. On Dec. 31, 1881, he was married to Matilda (Robins) Hill,
a native of Granville county, Ontario, and widow of A.R. Hill, who 
survives him. Four children are living, namely, Mrs. Mary Douglass, of 
Kansas; Mrs. J.W. Sheaffer, of this city; Mrs. Edward A. Perman, and 
Lorin Hartman of Winnebago City township.
	The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from the
Basey church, Rev. A.B. Wolfe officiating.
