Mr. Hindman has been a minister of the Methodist Church for thirty-eight years; for the last twenty years, owing to failing health, has not been on a circuit. Mr. Hindman is a self-made and self-educated man and has never depended on the ministry for a livelihood. In 1872 he was chosen a member of the Fifteenth General Assembly of Iowa. His third son was a member of the Upper Iowa Conference. ====== DEATH OF A GOOD MAN. Rev. John Hindman Passes Away at His Chester Home. CHESTER, Neb., May 10. - (Special.) - Rev. John Hindman died at his home yesterday afternoon. He was an ideal citizen, a kind husband and father. The end came peacefully. For days has he waited for the time when the end should come. Patiently he bided his time admonishing his loved ones to "stand fast" and meet him. No man, in his last days, ever received better care. The faithful wife and mother; the affection love of the children were strained to the utmost to make his last days comfortable and in his departure easy and painless and in the performance of that sacred trust they have fulfilled every obligation. The funeral will be held on Saturday, May 11, 1901, the services being held at the house at 10 o'clock a.m., conducted by Rev. P.P. Carroll, and the remains will be laid to rest in the Chester cemetery (sic). Among the six children who survive him are Mrs. Ada E. Pickering, of Lincoln.
