About two years ago he had a second attack, and last Friday evening he had a third attack, which caused his death Saturday evening. He was born in Dowlingville, now Baxter, four miles below Brookville, on Redbank Creek, on September 10, 1843. When he was a boy the family moved to Brookville, and Mr. Hayes lived practically all his life in or near Brookville. In August of 1869, he was married to Miss Jane Hildebrand.
