He died in Florida Son of Peter and Rebecca (PETTIT) DODGE (Peter was a son of Aaron DODGE) Hiram G. DODGE, a retired business man of Madison, Dane County, WI, is now enjoying the fruits of years of hard labor, in his pleasant home at No. 101 Butler Street. He has been a resident of Madison since 1850, when he engaged in business as a general merchant, continuing until 1863. During this time he also established a lumber and grain business and was active in the latter business for 25 years, dealing to some extent in the former and house supplies, continuing in the same until his retirement some years ago, when his business was taken by his sons, who are now extensive lumber, grain, and coal dealers. He has never sought for office, but has always been a decided Democrat, public spirited in all that contributed to the welfare of the city. Success has attended his efforts and he is now the owner of some very valuable property in Madison, while his brick house is one of the old landmarks of North Butler Street.
