PETER CODRIC HORN
The community was greatly shocked Thursday afternoon when the word came that P.C. Horn had suffered a paraletic stroke and was in a very serious condition. He and his wife were making the final preparations intending to start for California Saturday. He had come to Rifle to attend to some business matters and on the way in he was taken suddenly ill. He stopped at the Harmon ranch two miles west of Rifle, where his wife and a doctor were summoned. He rallied some and the next day seemed to be better, but the end came Monday afternoon and he passed in his rest.
Peter Codric Horn was born in Pike County, Illinois, June 1st, 1856, and died at Rifle , October 2nd, 1922 at the age of 66 years, 4 months and 1 day. He came to Colorado about the year 1874 and has resided principally in this state until his death. He was married to Miss Melissa A. Alkire in October, 1877, to which union were born Ida B., Mary E., Arthur L., Charles W., Maud L., Walter C., Egbert S., and Mabel I, of whom six still survive and all the living children were present at the funeral except Maud, who resides in Oregon. In January, 1916, the mother of the children passed on before. In June, 1918, he was united in marriage with Mrs. Ella Guinn, who also survives his departure, and two brothers and a sister, J.C. Horn of Lamar, Colo., S.T. Horn and Mrs. Belle Prosser of Briggsdale, Colorado.
He was a member of the Odd Fellows Order for thirty years and of Woodsman of the World for twenty five years.
He came to this part of the country in 1891 [he was at McCoy, Co from 1881 until 1902] and settled on the ranch on Cache Creek on which he lived until two years ago, when he sold out. He was a prominent stockman and was held in the highest esteem by his fellow men. His was a jolly and kindly disposition and he always had some cheery words for all of his friends, who were innumerable. With his wife, he spent the past two winters in California.
The funeral services were held at Rex Theater, Wednesday afternoon, Rev. John M. Flynn of the Methodist Church officiating. The remains were accompanied to the Rose Hill cemetery by the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs in a body, and the final services were conducted by the Odd Fellows, whose ceremony was very impressive. Mrs. Joe Whitt and Mrs. Harry Harp rendered two beautiful selections, with Mrs. Charles Cramp at the piano.
The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community in their loss.
