He was a Scotchman by birth and had seen a great deal of the world, having shipped before the mast when very young. He sailed the salt seas for many years, visited many ports, served as a soldier in the English army, in both India and Ceylon, and could relate many interesting stories of the hardships, and privations of war and adventure. He was one of the first white settlers of Greeley county, a friend of the Indians, was well known and acquainted with many of them, treated them kindly and in return they often brought him venison and fish. He was one of the hardy pioneers who helped to settle and develop as best they could under very trying circumstances, this part of Nebraska. Mr. Horn was here before the streams were bridged, railroads built, or any of the modern conveniences we enjoy today were possible, and we of a younger generation should not forget the privations endured by the old family of pioneers who are fast passing away, who made this wonderful country possible for us to enjoy. OBITUARY – Wm. Horn was born in Talkeet Adanberg, the capital of Scotland on June 22nd, 1833, he died in Wolbach, Nebraska, May 19th, 1916, at his home after an illness of more than a year. Services were held in the Catholic church on Saturday morning of May 20th and remains were laid to rest in the Wolbach cemetery. There remains to mourn his loss besides his wife, four daughters, Mrs. F. M. Cutler, Mrs. Ed Dollarhide, Mrs. Jake Grossart and Mrs. Carl Baird, and two sons David of Wolbach and George of Burwell. Card of Thanks – We wish to express our sincere thanks to the many kind friends and neighbors who so kindly helped us in the sickness and death of our beloved husband and father. Mrs. Wm. Horn and family.
