Obituary from Newport Hoosier State
Wednesday, February 2, 1887
The uncertainty of life in this world is frequently verified. One week ago last Friday, Neil Hise, Trustee of Clinton Township, was in Newport, and before leaving for home gave us a pleasant call. He seemed to be in good health and spirits, and laughed and joked freely. On the day following his visit here, he went to Clinton on business, and returned home in the evening quite sick. He continued to grow worse until the middle of the next week, when the physicians thought there was a slight improvement. But it was only temporary. He immediately took worse, and at 6 o'clock on last Sunday morning, January 30, 1887, his spirit took its flight to a better world above. The doctors pronounced his disease congestion of the stomach and bowels.
The deceased was nearly 47 years of age, and leaves a wife, now on her deathbed with consumption, and 3 children - 2 daughters and a son - all grown. At the breaking out of the war in 1861, Mr. Hise enlisted in the gallant 14th Indiana, and served his country honestly and faithfully 4 long years. As a citizen and neighbor, he was honored and respected by everybody. About 2 months ago, he took out a $2500 policy on his life in the Odd Fellows association, of which he was an acceptable member. He had only paid one assessment on his policy. It seems that he had a premonition of his death. A short time ago, in conversing with his neighbor (Samuel Taylor), he told him that he was nearly 47 years of age, but that he would never live to see 47.
A few minutes before he died he said he felt no pain, and was going to get up and bid his wife good bye, before he died. He got up and walked to her bed, kissed her, and bade her good by, telling her that he could not be with her any longer. He told who he owed, and who owed him, and who he wanted to settle up his estate, and then taking a long farewell look at his invalid wife, who had been confined to her bed for the last 6 months, he walked to his bed and said, "I am ready to die," and in 5 minutes more he was a corpse.
His funeral took place at 10 o'clock on last Monday morning, and was the most largely attended funeral that has taken place in that township for many years. The remains were taken charge of by the Odd Fellows, who performed the last sad rites, and gently laid the good man to rest in the Spangler Cemetery.
