Dortan D. Hunter was born June 29, 1885, at Brookville, Pennsylvania, and moved to Fruitland in 1900, where he has lived most of the time since. In 1910 he made a visit to Pennsylvania, when he was married to Miss Ida Bell Luther, March 15, 1910 at Corsica. They returned to Idaho, and have made their home on their ranch southeast of Fruitland for the last several years. He was a member of the Royal High-lander lodge. He became ill last week while working in Emmett, and came home Friday evening. It was not thought his condition was serious until Saturday evening, when he was taken to the Ontario hospital for an operation but passed away at 2 o'clock Sunday morning. Death was due to spinal meningitis following the flu. He leaves to mourn his loss his widow, two sons and six daughters, one daughter preceding him in death last August, his mother and two sisters, Mrs. Ray Russell of Modesto, and Mrs. Phil Carpenter of this place, besides a host of friends who extend to the bereaved ones their heartfelt sympathy. Funeral services were held from the M. E. church Monday afternoon at 2:30 and interment made in Riverside cemetery, beside his little daughter.
