Hallin, Arthur B.,

The people of Harrington and vicinity were greatly shocked last Sunday morning by the news of the death of A. B. Hallin,  one of the firm of the Harrington Drug Co and a brother of Mrs. J. M. Gunning. Mr. Hallin was taken ill Wednesday night of last week … and passed away Sunday night at midnight.

Hallin was a young man about 30 years old, the greater part of his life having been spent in Lincoln County, in Sprague, Harrington and Davenport. He was for years chief deputy in the county auditors office, and was one of the most efficient and accurate officials ever in the court house. Being an excellent penman his books were a marvel of neatness. He was the democratic nominee for the county auditor at the recent county election. He had been in Harrington the past year, a member of the Harrington Drug Co. A general favorite with all his many friends, of a cheerful and exceptionally pleasant disposition, his death is much lamented. Funeral services were held at the Baptist Church Tuesday, conducted by Rev I S Leonard. After the sermon the body was taken in charge by the Knights of Pythias, he having been a member of Davenport lodge, a large number of Knights from Davenport being in attendance.

They named this place Floatwood Shorthorn Farm. These brothers were bachelors, and after the death of John, Charles continued to carry on alone. He was of a jovial turn of mind, and could always hold up his end of a conversation when jest, fun or “kidding” entered into it, and he was a likeable fellow. The funeral, under the auspices of Harrington Lodge No 160, IOOF, was held Wednesday afternoon at the Harrington Funeral Home where the Rev Ernest Goudge delivered the funeral sermon… Mr. Hollopeter had been an Odd Fellow for about 30 years.

Hollopeter, D. W.

After an eventful life of more than four score and eight years, Grandpa D. W. Hollopeter at 8 o’clock on Monday morning, Aug 26, 1912, peacefully closed his eyes to the scenes of this life. That mysterious guiding intelligence which governs this wonderfully intricate human mechanism through the five senses, that divine spark, deserted its earthly home and released through what we call death, fled to realms more beautiful than anything earth ever saw. The end came at the farm home south of town where he lived with his two sons and a daughter, J. C. and C. G. Hollopeter and Mrs. McAllister. He was first taken ill with a severe cold contracted during the week of our early harvest rains, but he soon rallied from this, only to suffer a relapse and on Friday of last week a trained nurse came out of Spokane and remained with him until the end, which came after five days, the direct cause of which, aside from advanced age, was uremia. He was born May 4, 1824, almost a century ago, in Rye Township, Perry Co, PA.  With his parents he moved to Miami County, in the western part of Ohio in the year 1831. Here his parents tilled the soil, enjoyed the frontier life, reared a large family, and finally they too as all mankind must do, came to the end and were laid to rest in the vicinity of their home. In 1848 Mr. D. W. Hollopeter was united in marriage with Miss Hattie Ingle, near Covington, Ohio, and to this union were born nine children; five sons and four daughters, of whom 4 sons and 3 daughters survive their father as follows: J W; J C; C G; and Mrs. McAllister, all of Harrington, WA; Marion Hollopeter of Ledora, Iowa; Mrs. L. A. Brooks of Waterloo, Iowa; and Mr.s M. V. Elliot of Carroll City, Iowa.  His wife preceded him in death March 23, 1898 at Moscow, Idaho. One son, Cyrus died in Colorado thirteen years ago and one daughter died in infancy. He leaves more than 25 great grandchildren. In 1854, before the railroads had shortened the distance across the continent from months to days, Mr. Hollopeter moved by team to Iowa County, Iowa; thence back to the Buckeye State again in 1859, returning again to Iowa in the fall of 1868. Their next journey brought them to Foster County, North Dakota in 1898 and in 1899 they came west to Harrington, WA where Mr. Hollopeter had since resided. The funeral was held Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock from the First Presbyterian church, the Rev S H King, pastor, officiating… On July 6, 1910, Mr. D. W. Hollopeter called upon The Citizen and, in a reminiscent mood, said that his grandfather on the parental side of his house was a personal friend of George Washington, under whom he fought for seven years. This great grandsire, he said, was a powerful man of fine physique and was seven feet six inches in height. He came to America from Germany and lived to the exceptional age of 130 years. Many of his descendants lived in Northwestern Ohio and were noted for being very tall of stature. At that time the old gentleman remarked that he had not used tobacco in any form for 30 years. He wore a full beard nearly black and his heavy beetling eyebrows were black as coal. He walked quite freely with the aid of a cane and read the newspapers without the use of glasses. (Citizen-Aug 30, 1912)

Hollopeter, Harriet “Hattie” (Ingle)

Last Sunday morning J. W. Hollopeter and J. E.

A. Allin in the presence of his Odd Fellow brethren, his town and country friends and his relatives. Mr. & Mrs. J. E. Turner, morticians, had charge of the body. Corcoma, a cancerous form, attacking his internal anatomy, was given as the cause of death. Mr. Hollopeter was born at Ladora, Iowa, Aug 21, 1862 and came to Harrington in May, 1899, a short time after the arrival here of his brother Charles. The two brothers leased and farmed the J. L. Ball land southwest of town for 17 years, gradually acquiring land of their own until they had built up quite a little stock ranch and had founded a herd of purebred Shorthorn cattle—and as a minister said from a Harrington pulpit, as his text, “Then came Schenacarib.” Mr. Hollopeter is survived by three brothers and one sister: J W “Joe” of Spokane; F M of Ladora, Iowa; and Charles G of Harrington; Mrs. V. M. Elliot of Carroll City, Iowa. Brothers J. W. of Spokane and Charles G. of Harrington were at his funeral, as were the following nieces and nephews: Mrs. J. W.

Deceased was a member of Harrington Lodge No 160, IOOF, and Unique Encampment IOOF of Spokane. The funeral was held in the forenoon, following a custom in the hollopeter family, coming down through generations, from the old-time Dnukards. “No Hollopeter was ever buried, as far as we have any record, at any other hour except one falling in the forenoon, and almost always at 11 o’clock,” said his brother J. W. Hollopeter. John Hollopeter lived and died a bachelor. He was frank, honest, jovial, sincere and thrifty. He and his brother Charles were life companions and business partners. They ate each other’s cooking, forebore each other’s “chafing,” and were jolly good companions. They shared alike each other’s joys and sorrows. (Harr. Citizen-Oct 14, 1929)

Hollopeter, J. W. (Joe) ,

M. at LaDora, Iowa, and one sister, Mrs. U. J. Bussler, Stevens Co, WA… “Joe” Hollopeter was a good citizen and neighbor, a loving husband and fond father. He was a good conversationalist, perfectly at ease in any crowd, which he could entertain from his store of rich experiences gained through years of mixing with humanity as it flowed to and from across the continent behind the steam horse. He was courteous, obliging and accommodating, always solicitous for the unfortunate, the weaker and the needy. (Harrington Citizen-Mar 20, 1931)

Hollopeter, Sarah

Funeral services for Mrs. Sarah Hollopeter were held Wednesday at 10 AM from the Community church under the direction of Danekas & Duncan Funeral Home. Rev E. R. Madson was officiating clergyman.

She joined the Rebekah lodge here, and was proud of her 50-year membership to Spokane chapter. She was a member of the Pythian Sisters lodge during its existence here; she was a member of the former Presbyterian church here, and its Ladies Aid. In all of these organizations, Mrs. Hollopeter was a faithful worker. In 1917 Mr. & Mrs. Hollopeter moved to Spokane where Mr. Hollopeter died in 1931. In 1939 Mrs. Hollopeter went to live at the Masonic Home at Zenith. During her time there she became known as “grandma” to the old people. Mrs. Hollopeter, in company with her children, Mr. & Mrs. D. Lee Hollopeter of Portland and Mr. & Mrs. Joe Bartlett of Walla Walla, visited Harrington just a year ago. She was alive and active for her 88 years and told of her various interests at the home; she made quilts, crocheted, made her own house dresses, etc. At 86 years, she was thrilled with her first air plane trip—Portland to Los Angeles. Although she had been on the hospital floor at the home, a month, she was able to be in a wheel chair, and was mentally active up to her death. Her condition became worse Thursday of last week and death was the result of senility. Surviving Mrs. Hollopeter are her children: Ira W. Hollopeter, Seattle; Roy A. Hollopeter, Gresham, OR; Dan (Lee) Hollopeter, Portland; Alta Pilant, Boulder City, Nevada; Maude Bartlett, Walla Walla; 3 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren. (Citizen-1 June 1951)
