Obituary Notice.

The many relatives and friends of Mr. Hugh Fishback will be pained to learn of his death, which occurred at his home, three miles southeast of Dunkirk, Indiana, on February 14, 1890.

In the death of Mr. Fishback the wife loses a kind, loving husband, the children a kind and indulgent father, and the neighbors an honest Christian man. We shall miss him and mourn his absence, but do not mourn as “those who have no hope.”

He was a brother of Mr. Richard Fishback, formerly a well-known citizen of this place, and also an uncle of the Garrett brothers, several of whom live here, and hence his death is a cause of much grief in this immediate vicinity.
