DANIEL HAMMAN DIES
The community was shocked Tuesday morning when the word was received that Dan HAMMAN had passed away. Mr. Hamman has been in poor health for a year or more but has been around all the time and was in town Monday. Monday evening he retired in seemingly usual health. About three o’clock Tuesday morning he arose and went down stairs; after waiting a few moments other members of the family went down to see if anything was wrong and found him on the floor dead. The body was taken to Eaton Rapids, Mich., his former home, for burial, Wednesday.
OBITUARY
Daniel HAMMAN was born in Franklin township, DeKalb Co., Ind., April 26, 1853. His death took place at his residence near Hamilton, Ind., Aug. 3, 1915, making his age 62 years, 3 months and 7 days.
His first marriage was with Malinda Oberlin Jan. 1, 1874. To this union were born two children: Henry Marshal and Gertrude May Meerrit HAMMAN, both surviving their father. Besides these, there surviue him four brothers and four sisters, of whom one sister and three brothers live in or near Hamilton, two sisters and one brother reside in Wichita, Kans.
His second marriage was with Mrs. Nancy M. Gall, of Hamilton, Ind., on Thanksgiving day 1910, whom he leaves to mourn his departure.
He was brought up in the Lutheran faith and teaching in which fellowship he continued until death.
The deceased has been in broken health for a year or more, yet generally able to do light work up to the hour of his death, which came to him almost instantly.
Mr. Hamman was a man of a very kind social nature, with a kind word for all. He will be missed by a large circle of friends.
The funeral services were held from his residence near Hamilton, conducted by L. W. Spayd after which the local Grange, of which he was a member, had charge. From thence he was taken for interment to Eaton Rapids, Mich.

We wish to thank all who in any way assisted us during our recent bereavement.
