Ignace Hainer was found dead in the road east of Mr. Bozarth's house Monday afternoon at l o'clock by Bert Cummings, who was on his way to town. He stopped and seeing that Mr. Hainer was dead, rode on to town and spread the alarm. Immediately Dr. Horner, J.H. Kling and several others went to where the body lay. As there were no signs of violence on his body no inquest was held, but his death was caused by cerebral hemmorhage.
He was seen to leave his home about l0:40 a.m. for town and as he was only 3/4 of a mile from home when found, he must have fallen dead about 11 o'clock.
Mr. Bozarth saw him lying in the road at noon but supposed it was a garment someone had dropped from a wagon and did not go to investigate.
Ignace Hainer was born Nov. l5, l8l8 in Hungary. He was married in l846 and came to the United States in l854 and lived for one year in Chicago, when he came to what was then known as the Hungarian Colony at New Buda. In l856 he was chosen Professor of Modern Languages of the State University of Columbus, Mo., and served until the Civil War when the college was suspended in l860, and he returned to New Buda near which he has since resided. During later years he had resided with his children during the winter and spending his summers on his farm.
On last Wednesday he returned from spending the winter in St. Louis.
He died Monday, March 26, l900, aged 8l years, 4 months and 11 days.
The funeral was held at the Union Church Wednesday at 3 p.m., conducted by Rev. A.H. Rusk of the M.E. Church, and interment made in the Davis City Cemetery.
The day was extremely disagreeable, but the church was well filled with sympathizing friends who desired to pay their last tribute of respect to the aged exile for liberty.
It will be remembered that Mr. Hainer was one of the noble band of Hungarian Patriots who joined with Kossuth in a glorious but fruitless endeavor to secure that priceless boon so dear to every people, whether they be Anglo Saxon, Hungarian, Boer, Cuban or Fillipino -- self-government.
The history of the colony of exiles who settled at New Buda is pathetic. None are left now but Mr. Varga, of Leon, and Mr. Radnich, of this place, both of whom filled honored positions in the land of their adoption. The colonists were not reared to the hardships of a new country and knew little of agriculture, hence their lot was a hard one. But they secured for their children the opportunities denied to themselves, and they are among the most honored members of the communities where they reside.
Hon. E.J. Hainer, of Aurora, Neb.; Prof. J.C. Hainer, of St. Louis; Judge B.T. Hainer, of Guthrie, Okla.; Mrs. Vesta Chase and her husband, Dr. Chase, of St. Louis, were in attendance at the funeral of their father, Ignace Hainer.

The people of our community were greatly shocked last Monday when word reached this city about noon that Bert Cummings had found Ignace Hainer lying dead in the road about one mile south-east of our city. Mr. Hainei lived alone on his farm about three miles south-east of town, aud had started to walk to our city, something he very frequently done. J. H. Kling acting as coroner had the body removed to a Davis City hotel where an inquest was held, it being pronounced a stroke of apoplexy by the physicians. He was laying on his face when found which was bruised some in falling. He had something near $500 on bis person when found. His children have been notified and the remains will be kept till Thurs day when interment will be held in the Davis City cemetery.
