Hiram A. HOWARD died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. George NEFF in Grand
Marsh, on Saturday, November 22nd, following a prolonged illness.

Mr. HOWARD came to this county from Waukesha county some twenty-five years
ago, and purchased a general mercantile business in White Creek, which is
now owned by A. H. GREENWOOD. He conducted the business successfully for a
number of years, but the infirmities of age coming on, he sold the business
to his sons and moved with his wife to Kilbourn to reside. During his
residence in White Creek, he was an active worker in the church at that
place, and was known and respected for his honesty and uprightness of
character. He was a veteran of the Civil War, and was always interested in
G. A. R. matters. Some five or six years ago his wife died, since which
time he has made his home amongst his children.

Deceased is survived by four children, Mrs. George NEFF of Grand Marsh,
Mrs. Frank WITT of Easton, A. C. HOWARD of Rosalia, Washington, and S. H.
HOWARD of Kilbourn.

Funeral services were held Monday, conducted by Rev. D. W. Barclay of
Oxford, and interment was in the Easton cemetery. The children have the
sympathy of all in their loss.
