Mustered Out Company F, 153rd Infantry Regiment Indiana on 4 September 1865 at Louisville, Kentucky. Hallet B. Hidy was born on the old homestead in Chester township, Wabash county, Indiana, April 2, 1848, and is a son of William and Catherine (Parrott-Wilson) Hidy. He was granted an ordinary education in the public schools in the country, which he attended during the winter months, while he assisted his father in the farm work during the summers, as was customary with farmers' lads of his day and locality. When the Civil war broke out, he was too young to become a soldier, although he saw his brothers march away one by one to the front to tight under the flag, but finally, May 12, 1864, when he had just passed his sixteenth birthday, he managed to get himself accepted as a private in Company G, One Hundred and Thirty-Eighth Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry, in the 100 days' service, and was mustered into his regiment at Indianapolis. He received his honorable discharge in September, 1864, and returned to his home, but February 1, 1865, again enlisted, joining Company F, One Hundred and Fifty-third Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry, with which he served until the close of the war, being honorably discharged in September, 1865, at Indianapolis. During the greater part of his service he was engaged in picket and scout duty and in watching the numerous guerrillas, and his record was ever that of a brave and faithful soldier, cheerful in the performance of his duty and admired by comrades and respected by officers. Upon his return home he again assumed the vocation of farmer, and was so employed until the time of his marriage, October 15, 1868, to Miss Sarah F. Howe, daughter of Luke Howe. Mr. and Mrs. Hidy have had the following children: John Wilson, who died in 1891; Emma, who married Clyde Lowe of Warsaw, Indiana; Charley, who died young; Alice, who died at the age of twelve years; Elizabeth, who married Joe Kelley; Levi, who served as a member of the One Hundred and Fifty-seventh Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, during the Spanish American war, and died October 31, 1902; Mary, who married Floyd Lewis, of Laud, Whitley county; Minnie, who married Virgil Lawrence; Frank D., who died February 8, 1906; and Bessie, who was married February 25, 1914, to Glenn Pence. The mother of these children died May 19, 1909, and was laid to rest in Pleasant Grove cemetery. In the spring of 1869 Mr. and Mrs. Hidy located on the farm on which Mr. Hidy now resides, and on which he has continued to be engaged in farming ever since. This is a tract of thirty-eight and one half acres, located four miles east of Manchester, in Chester township, and is under a high state of cultivation, due to Mr. Hidy's intelligent efforts. He is possessed of more than ordinary business capacity, and in his various dealings with his fellow-men has shown himself a man of the highest integrity whose word may be relied upon as is his bond. He may well take a pride in his farm, for it has all been cleared by his own labor and the houses and other improvements are of his own construction. Politically Mr. Hidy is a Republican and much interested in local affairs. He is a stanch advocate of good roads, and was one of the subscribers for the bettering of the road along the front of his home, working his share out during the next three years. A progressive citizen, thoroughly alert, he is entitled to a place among the men who are making Wabash county one of the most prosperous in the state. He is popular among his comrades in John A. Logan Post, Grand Army of the Republic. In his youth Mr. Hidy joined the Christian church, which was the religious home of his parents. Later with his wife and two or three of the oldest children he united with the United Brethren church in its class in the neighborhood of their home, and continued members of that class until about five years ago, when the organization was abandoned. About four years ago Mr. Hidy and his youngest daughter went into the Methodist church, which was the closest society holding regular services, and Mr. Hidy still worships there, his daughter having since moved away.
