"Frank J. Dodd grew up on the home farm and attended the local schools when not engaged on the place, and he has devoted his life to agricultural pursuits in his home community, and having managed well, he has met with a large measure of success as a general farmer and stock man, being now the owner and operator of Clear Creek stock farm, one of the best in the township, which he has kept well improved and under a high state of cultivation. At present he raises nothing but graded stock, which, owing to their superior quality, find a very ready market. He has a splendid, well furnished home.....Politically, Mr. Dodd is a Democrat and he has been a member of the school board."

"F. J. Dodd, proprietor of the Clear Creek Farm, on Section 19, Independence Township, was born in Clear Creek Township, Jasper County, April 28, 1858.

"His parents were Joseph and Amelia Dodd, who came from Illinois to this section and became pioneers in Jasper County. They were natives of Kentucky.

"Our subject was united in marriage in 1885 to Mary A. Altman, who was born in Jasper County August 7, 1859. They are the parents of two children: Arthur J., born September 15, 1887, and Tharies, born February 18, 1895.

"When our subject started for himself, he had but limited means, but has succeeded well. Besides doing a general farming business, he devotes a great deal of his time to the buying of stock, principally cattle and horses, either of which he has for sale in quantities at most any time."
