HERRICK, Don F., Obituary

At Randall, Kenosha county, Wis., March 14, 1880, Don Ferdinand Herrick, aged 81 years.

Deceased was born at Le Raysville, Jefferson county, New York, and afterwards lived in Otsego county; then at the age of 31 years, filled the office of Sheriff of Cooperstown. After removing to Oswego, he came to Wisconsin, where he has since resided, his wife having died some years ago. A man of fine culture and amiable qualities, he gained many warm friends wherever he was. Mr. Herrick leaves three daughters, one of them, Mrs. E. G. Garner of this city. For many years in great weakness of body, he seemed only to be waiting till from out the gathered darkness, the Father, Allwise, Eternal, should guide the wayworn feet to the life unmeasured by years. The family have the sincere sympathy of a large circle of friends and acquaintances, in their sorrow. [Wisconsin State Journal, (Madison, Wis.), Mar. 30, 1880]
