Rev. M. T. Hough, who for the past thirty days has been suffering from spinal trouble and other complications, departed this life last Saturday, October 27, 1900.


In 1861 he enlisted in the Union army, and while upon the field of battle was stricken with a sun stroke and lay upon the battle field of Chattanooga for three days before any medical aid could reach him. Being rendered unfit for field service he was sent back to serve in Madison hospital where he remained until he was mustered out in 1865. Shortly thereafter he entered Butler college, Ind., to prepare himself for the ministry. He spent thirty years in the ministry of the Christian church.


The deceased was twice married, the first time to Miss Mattie J. Alcorn, of Scott county, Indiana, who departed this life February, 1889. He was married the second time to Miss Vic Cain, of Nortonville, Kansas, who with three children by the first union, two married daughters and one son, survive.


The members of the G.A.R. and M.W.A. both orders of which the deceased was a member attended the funeral. The inclement weather prevented as large an attendance at the cemetery as there otherwise would have been.


The Holton Recorder, November 1, 1900.


Milton T. Hough was born in Scott Co., Indiana, Feb. 6, 1840, being at the time of his embrace into rest, sixty years of age. His boyhood days were spent upon his father's farm. He left its simple duties for the first time to answer his country's call in 1861.


The Tribune, November 2, 1900.


Note: Milton & Mattie Hough had a son, Homer Harrison Hough, whose burial place has not yet been found.
