Mr. Corbly came from the Gallatin valley in 1889, and settled near Lewistown and has ever since resided in Fergus county. He associated himself with the Masonic fraternity in Sedan, Kansas, in the year 1877, and affiliated with the Lewistown lodge in 1890. His honesty and integrity and his influence among men and Masons have ever been noteworthy and a great force and character for good. His genial soul and pleasant associations will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him, and to know him was but to have a kindly feeling for the man. In Fergus county, Jacob Corbly has held the offices of school clerk and school trustee of the Lewistown public schools and was elected and held the office of Fergus county commissioner for four years. At the age of only 23 years, Mr. Corbly enlisted on the 17th day of July 1861, in Company A, Sixth Iowa Infantry Volunteers as a private soldier and thereafter advanced to corporal and on 26 January 1864, was honorably discharged by reason of his re-enlistment as a veteran volunteer at Scottsboro, Alabama. He was appointed sergeant of company A, Sixth regiment of own Infantry Volunteers on 27 February 1864, and was honorably discharged from service at Louisville, Kentucky, on 21 July 1865. He was a good and faithful soldier and officer, true to his government and just to his country. He was with Sherman in his march to the sea, engaged in the battle of Shiloh and Chattanooga, was in the siege of Vicksburg and Atlanta, where he was injured by having his hearing partly destroyed, and was also engaged in the battle of Lookout Mountain and a number of minor skirmishes.
