• Notes

  We clip the following from a Kansas exchange: - James Hunt, one of the most prominent and respected citizens of the community passed to his final rest yesterday afternoon at 3 p. m. Mr. Hunt was a native of Canada, and of Irish parentage, and about 45 years of age at the time of his death. - He has resided here twenty-fives years, and during that period has filled many positions of emolument and trust. Five years since, he was married to Miss Mary Lyndon, who survives him. He leaves no children. He was an exemplary citizen, a good christian, and a true friend, and his untimely demise will be sincerely mouned by a large circle of relatives and friends. The above was the oldest son of Mr. Hunt of this place. Elmira Advirtiser 1 Aug 1889
