Read More	A Pioneer Passes Away Margaret Hickman, one of the early pioneers of Jasper County, passed away last Tuesday morning, May 26th, at the ripe old age of 77 years, 8 months and 22 days. She had been in failing health for many months, gradually failing under the infirmities of age; and when death came she was ready and only waiting for the summons to join her loved ones on the other shore. Margaret Hickman's maiden name was Margery Moffitt. She was born near Chillicothe, Ohio, Sept. 3, 1819. When but an infant her parents immigrated to Randolph County, Ind., then a wild, unbroken forest almost solely inhabited by Indians, where her early life was spend and where, on the 10th day of September 1837, she was united in marriage to Samuel Hickman. In the fall of 1852, they came to Jasper County, purchasing the farm three miles west of Newton a good part of it from the government. Jasper County was then but sparsely settled, and they, in common with the settlers of that day had trials and privations to encounter which we of today can scarcely understand. The hospitalities of their primitive log cabin were known all over this county, and their latchstring was always out to those who needed shelter and comfort. They continued to live on the old farm until the spring of 1893, when they moved to Newton, where on the 4th day of Nov. 1895, Mr. Hickman died. Mother Hickman was raised a Quaker, but over fifty-three years ago, she united with the M. E. Church, and has ever remained an earnest believer in its doctrines and a faithful follower of the Master. Six children were born to them, one of whom died in infancy. Those surviving are E. M. Hickman, Seward, Seward, Neb., Mrs. L. A. Whitmore, Muscatine, Ia., and Mrs. P. J., A. M. and Z. N. Hickman, of this city all of whom were permitted to be at the bedside of their mother when death claimed her, but her eldest son, Erastus M. The funeral services were held in the M. E. Church at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. C. V. Cowan, and were attended by a large number of relatives and old friends and neighbors of the deceased.
