Obituary:  Charles  Franklin  HARDY

Austin,  Minnesota newspaper.... dated   August  11,  1870.

DIED...

In Brownsdale,  Mower County,  Minnesota,   August 9,   C.F. HARDY,   
of heart disease formally  Probate Judge  of this county,  in  the  
63rd  year  of  his  age.

The above announcement will be received with sorrow by his many friends 
throughout the country,  although it was not entirely unexpected.  
Mr. HARDY had but a short time since resigned his position as Probate 
Judge at the solicitation of his friends,  not doubt with  the 
expectation that he had not long to llive and now it becomes our painful 
duty to record the death of  this good old man.

Mr. HARDY was born in Lincoln,  Massachusetts,  in the year 1807,  
and resided in Waltham,  Massachusetts,  until he was 21 years of age,  
when he became a student in the Harvard College.   He came west in 
1840,  and has been a pioneer ever since,  and in 1856 he settled in 
Mower County,  where he has since lived and been identified.  The
deceased was a member of  the Baptist Church.  His death was 
instantaneous and without  pain.

The funeral will take place from his late residence,  one mile 
south of  Brownsdale,  at half-past ten o'clock,  today,  August  
11th,  1870.
