Hoyt People of Whitman and vicinity were shocked beyond expression last Tuesday morning to hear of the sudden death of Charles S. Hoyt, who was instantly killed by falling into the open stairway leading to the basement of their home in Whitman. Mr. Hoyt stepped out on the back porch, and the supposition is that he did not know the door being open, or attempted to close it and missed his step and when found a few minutes later was near the bottom of the steps lying on his head. Dr. Howell was called and gave as his opinion that death was instantaneous from a broken neck. Charles S. Hoyt was a prominent and successful rancher and stockman of Cherry county settling in the sand hills in the 70's. (1870's) He was born near Mount Ayr, Ringold county, Iowa, January 1, 1852, and died January 11, 1926, age 74 years and 10 days. He was united in marriage Nov. 18, 1888, Josephine Wright and to this union was born five children, the two oldest boys dying in infancy. There remains to mourn his death, the wife and mother, Josephine Hoyt, two daughters, Mrs. Maude Henderson, and M. Leo Henderson and the one son Harry E. Hoyt, who are living on homes provided for them by Mr. Hoyt. Besides these he leaves one brother , Bert Hoyt of Newport, Nebr., and two sisters, Mrs. Anna Hoffman of Kilgore, Nebr., and Mrs. Jessie Link of Indianapolis, Ind., also a host of friends who join with the family in their hour of sorrow. Charles S. Hoyt had led an active life, always pushing and although 74 years old it was no trick for him to straddle a horse and ride to the ranch and back, a distance of 18 miles. Mr. Hoyt will be greatly missed from the business circle of Whitman, and non can fill his place. He was laid to rest in the Whitman cemetery January 14, the procession that followed his remains to the grave being the longest ever seen in Whitman. It was a beautiful tribute to his memory and attested the high honor and esteem in which he was by friends. Contributor: Keri63
