HULME, I. H. G.
(13 Aug 1920, Elk City Press, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
I. H. G. Hulme was born near Elberton, Elbert county, Georgia, October 8,
1850.  In January, 1881, he moved to Gainesville, Texas, a year later to
Bowie, Texas, and in 1897 he moved to Oklahoma, settling in El Reno.  He
moved to Weatherford later, and about eight years ago to Elk City, where
he died August 7, 1920.  His age was 67 (sic) years, 9 months and 29 days.
Vocationally he spent nearly the whole of his adult life in mercantile
business, chiefly general merchandising, altho at times being interested
in various other industries.
Brother Hulme was married three times, first to Sallie F. Hall, Feb. 28,
1869, from which union 13 children were born.  The second marriage was to
Emma F. Frisby, Nov. 4, 1894, whose death occurred eleven months later. 
The last marriage was to Hannah J. Sackett, October 29, 1898, to whom two
children were born.  The surviving members of the family are the widow and
the following children: daughters, Mrs. Mamie Mitchell, Bowie, Texas; Mrs.
E. Brown, Chickasha, Okla.; Mrs. Laura Bird, Farmersville, Texas; and
sons, G. W. Hulme, Thomas, Okla.; O. H. Hulme, Thomas, Okla.; Russell
Hulme, Amber, Okla.; James S. Hulme, Elk City.
For many years Brother Hulme was an honored member of the Masonic order,
took an active part in its work and had filled nearly all of the higher
offices of the order.
Last and best of all, he was a devout believer in Jesus Christ and that
religion founded by Christ, the greatest factor for good in the present
civilization and moral redemption of the race.  He took this position
while yet a young man, and at the time of his death he was one of the two
senior elders of the First Christian church of Elk City.
He rests from his labors, and his works continue after him.
