Almon Martin Hull was born in Berlin, N. Y., August 28, 1847, and died at his home in Milton Junction, October 8, 1925, aged 78 years, 1 month and 10 days.

He was the youngest of six children born to D. P. Hull and Susan Burdick Hull, and was the last of the family to answer the call.

Mr. Hull was educated in the district school of his native state and spent his early life on the farm, remaining at home until the death of his parents. He continued to farm in New York state until 1876, when he went to Illinois, settling in Fulton county. A few years later he returned to New York state where he remained until 1889, when he went to Forest City, S. Dak. He cultivated land there until the fall of 1890, when he went to Iowa, locating on a farm near Rockwell City. In 1892 he moved to Panora, the same state, where he conducted a hardware store until Sept., 1893, when he sold out and purchased a general mercantile business in Rippey, Iowa, where he remained for 17 years, or until he came to Milton Junction, in Jan. 1911. Here he conducted a general merchandise business.

In Sept., 1866, Mr. Hull was united in marriage with Mary E. Sweet. To them were born two children, A. D. and A. C. Hull. She died in 1883, and in 1885 he married Mary E. Owen, to whom were born three children, S. Chapin, Emeline, Now Mrs. Dugan, and Edward R., all of whom were with their father at the time of his death. Their mother died in 1913. Besides the five children, he is survived by 13 grandchildren and five great grandchildren.

For many months Mr. Hull was confined, for the most part to his home, and toward the end was a great sufferer. During his long illness he was tenderly cared for by the two sons and daughter who were in the community.

Funeral services were held in the home Sabbath afternoon, and were conducted by Rev. Erlo E. Sutton of the Seventh Day Baptist church. The last rites at the grave were conducted by the Masonic order of which he was a member.

Mr. Hull had made many friends during his business career and will be greatly missed in the community. The floral gifts and large attendance at the farewell services were evidences of the esteem in which he was held.
