WILLIAM HENRY HINSHAW DEAD
William Henry Hinshaw died at his home one and one-half miles east of Emporia, on Sixth avenue, at 4:30 this morning. Mr. Hinshaw came to Emporia in November, 1865, and married Anna M. Barnett, February 28, 1869, and had lived at the home place ever since, except temporarily. Their children are Mrs. Mary Harvey, of Saffordville; Dorian, of Lewiston, Mont.; Miss Sidney Hinshaw, of Kansas City; Mrs. Millicent Motter, of Cherokee, Okla., and Roy Hinshaw, who is at home. A daughter, Abbie, died in 1873, also one in infancy. Mr. Hinshaw is survived by three brothers, Andrew and Ira, of Lyon county, John and a sister, Rebecca Pruitt, of Hamilton county, Ind.
He was born in Hamilton county, Ind., December 6, 1839. He inherited the Quaker faith, and while not an active member in the church, his life was consistent and upright, gentle, cheerful and ever ready to lend a helping hand, even to the detriment of his own business.
He served three years in the Civil War, with an honorable discharge, and while not knowing that he ever slew an "enemy," he had always regretted bearing arms against his fellowman.
Funeral services will be held at the Friends Meeting house, First avenue and Sylvan street, at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Interment will be made in Cottonwood cemetery, five miles west of Emporia.
