HAMMOND.---At his residence in the town of Cato, Manitowoc Co., on the 1st day of July, Preston H. Hammond, aged 45 years.
Mr. Hammond was one of the early settlers of Manitowoc county, and a man who was universally esteemed by all who knew him. A kind husband and father, his death has cast a dark shadow over the home circle, yet they can truly feel that it is only a link in the golden chain that binds them to the great beyond.---He had suffered for some time with a nervous disease, and bore his trouble with fortitude to the end.
He was born in Herkimer county, N.Y., April 9th, 1832, and removed to Jefferson county in that State, at the age of seven years where he lived until the age of twenty-one; the remainder of his life was spent in Wisconsin.
His religious belief was in the Methodist Episcopal church.
He leaves a wife and seven children.
Farewell father, brother, husband dear,
We part with you, but not in fear,
We hope to meet you, soon again
And know our hopes are not in vain.
