				DIED.
			      HARTMAN

At Rochester, Minn., on Saturday, July 25, 1903, 
Phillip Hartman, 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 
filed 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 during the first winter here 
worked a part of the time at his trade, 
shoemaking, he having made the first boots 
in the township.
   About two weeks ago Mr. Hartman went to 
the Mayo hospital at Rochester where he 
underwent an operation. He came out of the 
operation nicely and for a time it looked 
like he would recover, but a turn for the worse 
occurred and medical skill was powerless 
to save his life.
   Deceased was an honorable, upright man. 
In the community 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. Scheaffer, 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. Interment was made in the 
church cemetery.
