Read More	Henry Heeb, a prominent pioneer of Gallatin valley, died yesterday morning at his home in Bozeman from Bright’s disease. He was 78 years of age and a native of Pennsylvania. He came to Montana from Colorado in 1863, arriving at Virginia City in October, and at first engaged in freighting. He came to the Gallatin valley in the winter of ’63 and ’64 and pre-empted a quarter section of land near what is now Manhattan. His farming that year was not entirely successful, but in later years he was very successful, not only in farming, but in raising horses and cattle. He added to the original ranch until he owned at one time nearly 1,500 acres of good farming and grazing land. About 10 years ago he purchased a house in Bozeman, where he since made his home. Mr. Heeb is survived by his second wife, who was Mrs. Margaret Ault; and by five children, all grown, John, Frank, Barbara, Grace and Buell. Barbara is Mrs. August Peterson of Chouteau; Miss Grace Heeb is in Helena and the three sons on farms. Funeral services were held Sunday morning at 11:15 at the Payne Memorial Christian Church, conducted by the Rev. A. L. Chapman. The remains will be interred in the old Hamilton cemetery. Printed in the Dillon Tribune ~ January 30, 1914 Bozeman, Jan 19 – One of the largest funerals held in this city for some time was that of Henry Heeb this morning at Payne Memorial Christian church, a number of persons being unable to gain admittance in the church, the auditorium and the chapel being crowded to the doors. There were a number of pioneers who had known Mr. Heeb since he came to the Gallatin valley 50 years ago and others who had known him as a neighbor. The Rev. A. L. Chapman paid a fitting tribute to his high character and spoke of his having united with the church about 12 years ago at Central Park under the ministry of the Rev. O. F. McHargue, and that he was baptized in the West Gallatin River when the ice had to be broken for the baptism. The choir rendered appropriate hymns and the floral tributes were numerous and beautiful. It was Mr. Heeb’s request that his body be interred in the old Hamilton cemetery, near Manhattan, and it was a most unusual funeral procession of 11 automobiles that left the church immediately after the services and made the trip of about 25 miles to the cemetery, accompanying the remains to their last resting place. The honorary pallbearers were B. F. Sanborn, A. Truman, L. S. Briggs, Tom Lewis, Dwight Stone and Emil Ketterer; the active pallbearers were W. S. Erwin, Charles Waterman, W. C. Ryan, A. S. Ecton, H. B. McCay and E. A. Westlake. Printed in the Anaconda Standard ~ January 20, 1914
