An illness of five years ended in the death of Mrs. Hattie Johnston on August 3 at the age of 77 years. She had spent most of her life in and around Winterset.

Mrs. Johnston was born Susan Harriet Hobson, daughter of James and Sarah Rutherford Hobson, in Indiana on April 29, 1858. On March 18, 1886, she married Addie Harrell of Winterset.
