Eugene Hulbert of this city passed away at his home on North Franklin street Tuesday morning, March 9, 1915, after a brief illness of typhoid-pneumonia. Funeral services will be held at the family residence on Thursday forenoon at 11 o'clock. The services will be under the auspices of the Masonic lodge, the members of the local lodge, and members of the Greeley Masonic lodge attending in a body. The local lodge members are asked to meet at their hall at 10 o'clock and then go in a body to the home. The funeral address will be delivered by Rev. W. J. Suckow, pastor of the Congregational church of this city. Following the services at the home the body will be taken to Earlville and interment made in Fairview cemetery.

Eugene Hulbert was born in Stevenson county, Illinois, October 7, 1850. When he was a child of only three years the family removed to Iowa, and located in Colony township, Delaware county. He lived in Colony township until 1877, when he removed to Greeley and resided there for about ten years. Following his residence in Greeley, Mr. Hulbert moved on a farm east of Greeley and was actively engaged in farming there until ten years ago, when he came to Manchester to make his home.

Mr. Hulbert was a member of the Masonic lodge at Greeley. During the many years of residence in and near Greeley he took an unusually active part in the work of the lodge.

Deceased leaves to mourn his death, his aged mother, Mrs. William Hulbert, and two sisters, Mrs. L. Matthews and Miss Fannie Hulbert, of this city; and two brothers, William Hulbert, of Primghar, Iowa; and Harmi Hulbert, of Bennett, Nebraska. Mr. Hulbert never married.

The death of Mr. Hulbert brings profound sorrow to many in this city and in the northern part of the county where he resided for many years. His kindly nature and strictly fair and honorable dealings with his fellowmen won for him the highest esteem among his- friends everywhere. In lodge circles and in the family circle he will be sadly missed.

The aged mother, the two sisters and the brothers are being sympathized with in the sorrow that has come to them because of the death of the son and brother.
