At his home in New Auburn, Minn., December 16, 1913, Henry M. Truman, aged 69 years, 8 months, and 26 days.
Mr. Truman was born in Allegany County, N. Y., March 20, 1844, where he spent the first eleven years of his life. He then, with his parents, moved to Dane County, Wis.
February 1, 1864, he enlisted in Company I of the Third Wisconsin Volunteers and served his country till the close of the war. During his service he was in the famous march "from Atlanta to the sea," witnessed the surrender of Johnston, at Goldsboro, N. C., with the victorious army entered Richmond at the time of its downfall, and participated in many other notable events of the war, the last of which was the grand review at Washington, D. C., May 23, 1865.
In the spring of 1866 he moved to Sibley County, Minn., where he continued to live till the time of his death, with the exception of two years which were spent at his old home in Wisconsin.
July 11, 1874, he was married to Miss Caroline E. Atrops, who survives him. For thirty-three years they lived on the farm in Transit Township, and from the virgin prairie built up a substantial and fine home where their children were reared to maturity. In recent years, having sold his farm, they made their home in New Auburn.
In early life Mr. Truman made a profession of faith in Christ and united with the New Auburn Seventh Day Baptist Church, of which he remained a loyal member "till the day was done." He was an enthusiastic and honored member of the J. K. Merts G. A. R. Post, the few remaining members of which attended his funeral and were assigned seats of honor.
He leaves to mourn their loss his wife, five sons, one daughter, a brother, a sister, and a wide circle of friends.
Funeral services were held from the New Auburn Seventh Day Baptist church, December 19, conducted by Rev. E. H. Socwell, a former pastor. It was said to be the most largely attended funeral ever held in the village, people coming from a circle of twenty-five miles around.
