Quinn 24 ========== "The Highland Weekly News" Hillsboro, Ohio March 17, 1886. Death of Harness R. Quinn Harness Renick Quinn died on Friday, the 12th inst. after an illness of several months. He was the youngest son of Dr. J. M. and Ann C. Quinn and was born at Bainbridge, Ohio, August 17th, 1855. . A few years after his birth his parents removed to Hillsboro where Mr. Quinn resided until his death. He attended school here when a youth and is remembered by his teachers and schoolmates as a boy of more than ordinary ability and of a genial good natured disposition which endeared him to all his associates. He early developed great aptitude and love for study and was imbued with a desire to make himself a thorough scholar. In pursuance of his desire for knowledge, after leaving the schools at home, he went in 1873, to Michigan University at Ann Arbor. He at once took high rank here as a student and applied himself assiduously to his studies. He remained there two years, and after leaving college, applied himself to the study of the law. He was admitted to the bar in 1878, and soon afterward became a member of the law firm of Matthews, Huggins & Quinn. Shortly after engaging in the practice of his profession, in 1879, without solicitation on his part, he was elected Justice of the Peace for Liberty township. He filled the office creditably but on account of his ill health, resigned in March, 1880. Some time afterward, for the same reason, he gave up the practice of the law and sought some more active occupation in the hope of perfectly restoring his health. Accordingly, some three or four years ago, he embarked in the drug business with his brother, John W. Quinn. As a business man he made many friends and gave as close attention to his chosen occupation as his health would permit. For several years his health had not been good, but hope constantly buoyed him up with the belief that he would conquer the disease that was working on him. A few months ago he was compelled to remain in his room with what did not then appear a serious illness. As it generally is with persons afflicted with pulmonary disease, he did not give up his hope of recovery. However, he gradually grew worse and for the last few weeks his friends and physicians saw that his days were numbered. Notwithstanding the best available medical attention and the most careful and faithful nursing, he breathed his last on Friday in the arms of his loving and devoted wife, whom as Anna Trimble Lilley, he had married April 15, 1884, and who has the warmest sympathy of the entire community in this her great bereavement. Mr. Quinn was buried on Sunday morning from his late residence. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Geo. B. Beecher and were simple but impressive. The remains were followed to the grave by a large number of sorrowing relatives, friends and old associates. May he rest in peace. He was a man whom none knew well but to love and respect. "The earth hath returned to the dust as it was and the spirit to the God who gave it," But his memory will ever be sweet to his many friends, who in their sorrow will recall with pleasure his many lovable traits of character. It is hard to realize that he should have to go so soon, but "Whom the Gods love die young" was said of yore, And many Deaths do they escape by this: The Death of friends, and that which slays even more, The Death of Friendship, Love, Youth, all that is Except mere breath; and since the silent Shore Awaits at last even those whom longest miss The old Archer's shafts, perhaps the early Grave Which men weep over may be meant to save."
