and they lived there until Octo­

ing, they being Mrs. E. C. Hoo­
ver, o f Roseburg, Mrs. C. D.
Long, of Lincoln, Neb., Harry
Hibbard, Percy Hibbard, Hattie
and Amy, o f Dallas.
The death o f Mrs. Hibbard is
much regretted by her many
friends, made during her long
life among us. She was one o f
nature’ s noble woman, a devoted
wife, fond mother, and steadfast
friend, and has gone to the re­
ward earned by her life o f doing
for others while on earth.
