I G EO- KRI EGE Rl mum DIED TODAY This morning at o'clock William Hackc';t died at th home of his daughter. Mrs. ' Fro-l Bwaney. Mr. Hackett had been in 111 health (or a number of months, and while his death was a great shock to the rela tives and friends. It was not alto gether unexpected. Mr. Hacket was 73 years of age, and had been a resi dent of La Grande, for the past eight years. He was born In Staffordshire, England, but came to the United States when but 9 years of age. ; He was a! man of strong character, one of those men who commanded the re-' spect and love of all with whom he came In personal contact. , Especially were the children and young , men drawn to him from the fact that he was always ready and willing to assist or advise. To the older people he was what might be trmed reticent, but at the same time was always ready tc take a decided stand for what he con sidered right and proper. He was a man whose friendship was an honor; whose companionship a true pelasure. He leaves two- daughters and a son, his wife having preceded him to the other life two years ago last Thanks giving day. The children are: Mrs. Fred Swaney of this cltyi Mrs. J. A. Jackson of Council Bluffs, Jowa, and H. B. Hackett, now residing In Oklahoma. Both have been noti fied of their father's death. Mr Jackson will come to La Grande, but It Is not known at this time If the son can come. Funeral arrangements cannot be made until Mrs. Jackson ar rives. The deceased was an active member of the Episcopal church, and also a member of the Masnn'e lodge. Phonos Residance, Blask 701. Yard, Red 621.
