OBITUARY.
Charles O Martin, for man? years a
resident of this place, died at his
home here' last Friday after a short
illness with pneumonia and lagrippe.
Mr Mattin had been ill only about a
week, and his frail constitution was
nnatle to withstand the ravages of
the disease.
The deceased was in his fifty-seventh
etr, and had lived in this place the
greater portion of his life, having
fOQ'e here with his parents in 18.rG.
He was born in St Louis, Mo, January
3D, 1851. ne was baptized in 1853 by
the Iiuv John Matthews of the Kaskas
k i t Presbytery, in the church of which
Lis fattier was stared supply.
lie learned the trade of harness
maker at an early ago and was con
sidered one of the best workmen in
this part of the country. He was cm
itloved us foreman in the L Humbert
shop iu Sioux City for several yers,
and in his spare time wrote for differ
ent leather ana harness journals, one
of which paid hiiu $300 for an article
ou that subject. lie continued to
write for a harness journal published
in (Janada, ana ouiy a lew nays beiore
his death he received a check for 110
for his work.
lie compiled a book on harness
making, which was copyrighted and
sold in great numbers. Every harness
maker that saw the book pronounced
it a (treat help to anyone in the busi
ness .
For the past ten years he has lived
in bachelor apartment, doing what
he could, in his crippled condition, to
eke out an existence conducting a har
ness repair shop in the little room he
called home.
His crippled condition was the re
suit of a fever contracted while at
work with a wrecking company on the
Nugget, a steamer which struck
snag and sunk in the river about four
mil"s f oath of Dakota City, i his was
in 1871, and since then ho has been
deaf and dumb, and his feet and legs
racked with rheumatism.
The funeral services were held Sat
urday at 10:30 a m, from tho Lutheran
chureh, and were corducted by Rev
W S Oberholtzer. The remains were
deposited in their final resting place
u the Dakota City cemetery. v
Died at Jackson, Nebraska, Jan 17,
1908, Gerald Dillon, aged 80 years, of
pneumonia.
In the death of this highly respect
ed pioneer, Dakota County, Nebraska,
has suffered an irreparable loss; the
Epiphany Council, Knights of Colum
bus at Sioux City have added the
name of their oldest member to their
list of deceased brethren : Catholicity
has lost one of its warmest advocates
and the village of Jackson has laid to
rest, all that is earthly of the man who
was its sponsor.
A little over eighty years ago in the
County of Mayo, Ireland, Gerald Dil
lon was born. He oame to the United
States at an early age and settled in
the south near Natchez, (Miss. Here
for a time he had charge of a ootton
plantation. In 1849 he went out it
the California gold fields and in 1857
he came to Dakota county and joined
the Father Tracy colony in old St.
John's. He became part and paroel of
the colony and at a to vn election held
at the house of John Traoy, Feb. 15,
1858, the first of which there is any
record, he was elected village recorder.
In 18G0 he erected the first frame
house and in the same year a school
house was built and Gerald Dillon
taught the first sehool. A few years
later St. John's was deserted and the
colony moved to the new town site
which was plotted by Mr Dillou and
which for a time was known as Frank
lin. Owing to difficulties arising over
the fact that Nebraska boasted two
towns of the same name, Gerald Dil
lon with bis characteristic energy and
business ability, petitioned the county
commissioners to, change the name to
Jackson. The petition was granted
in 1865, the town was incorporated
and Mr Dillon was appointed its first
postmaster. He served the village,
the county and the then territory of
Nebraska iu many capacities and
throughout the whole community the
name of Gerald Dillon was a synonym
fur honesty and principle of the high
erder. k
During his long continued residence
of fifty-one years in Dakota county,
the deceased has left a record, clean
and unsulied, that any man might em
ulate. The life of this sturdy pionear
was as an open book: his sunny, genial
nature attracted both young and old
and his friends were numbered by his
acquaintances. At heart, he was a
philanthropist; besides being a publio
benefactor, the number and kinds of
his piivate charities will never be
known. The Catholio church, to
which he strictly adhered and cheer
fully obeyed throughout his long, well
spent life was a bountiful recipient of
his benefactions.
A pure, simple life is ended : as he
lived he died. After one short week's
illness, he calmly and resignedly pass
ed to the great beyond. 'He has gone
but his memory shall live on rever
enced und cherished by his fellow
townsmen who have felt aud will con
tinuo to feel the influence of this good
man who ever htood for what wss
hiclioHt and best in life, who held his
neighbor s reputation to be pnnelesa
and who served the couutrv of his
adoption as faithfully as he served his
God.
The funeral took place from St Pat
rick's church at Jackson, Monday al
10 a m, Solemn high mass was sung
by Rev J English of Hubbard. He
was assisted by llev Dather liyrno oi

Knights of Columbus from Sioux City

the deceased all the business houses

Hard or Soft Coal,
Coke or wood, whatever fuel you use, costs
money. You have to pay so much for it,
whether you get all the heat out of it or
not. If a stove wastes the fuel and only a
part of the heat is extracted, your fuel bills
are higher than they should be. It is there
fore profitable for you to get a stove that
will get all the heat out of the fuel and
not waste it.
fThe "Genuine" Round Oak and the
"Radiant Home" are the stoves that will
do it ; even the smoke they send out of the
chimney is clear, ( showing that the gases
and soot have been burned and all the heit
extracted. The comfort of a stove that is
everything it ought to be; that gives heat;
holds the fire ; that lasts and is always good
and efficient, is worth almost any cost.
The Round Oak and Hadianc
Home are such stoves and are a sourc
of comfort in thousands of homes, and they
will prove the same in yours. There are
imitations, be sure and see the names of
"Round Oak" and "Radiant.IIome."
