R. A. HINDE HAD SUFFERED LONG
Seven Years Illness Is Terminated by Visit of the Death Angel

Richard Hinde, a well known and popular resident of Seney vicinity, died at his home on Tuesday after a long illness of tuberculosis.

"Richie", as he was familiarly called by a large circle of friends and acquaintance, enjoyed a great popularity and his death is regretted by many neighbors and friends. He was a victim of tuberculosis, from which disease he had suffered for the past seven years. Prior to that he was noted for his physical strength and prowess and few men could vie with him in feats requiring brawn, muscle and agility. During the illness which finally caused his death he lived largely out of doors, camping in a tent, enjoying fishing and hunting. He bore his suffering uncomplainingly and was always cordial and cheerful.

Richard Hinde was born in Dubuque county forty-six years ago and in 1881, when a boy, came with his parents to this vicinity, locating in Sioux county, just beyond the confines of Plymouth county, where he has lived practically all the time.

He leaves to mourn his death his father, Richard Hinde, five brothers and two sisters, who are John Hinde, Ralph, Edwin and George, of the vicinity, T. W. Hinde, at Forestburg, S. D.; Mrs. D. F. McArthur, of Seney and Miss Mary Hinde, who lives at home with her father.

The funeral was held yesterday morning at the Methodist church in Seney, Rev. T. L. Klutz officiating adn was largely attended by old friends and neighbors.
