LODI CEMETERY LAST RESTING PLACE OF WELL-KNOWN TOWNSMAN

Keast of the Methodist church officiated at the late residence, 226 South Sacramento street, and also at Lodi cemetery, where interment was had.
Music was rendered by a quartet composed of J.C. Ferguson, Ernest West, Henry Rinn and Rev. W.A. Schwimley.
The pallbearers were C.A. Black, John Galloway, Dr. S. W. Hopkins, Dr. J.M. Blodgett, S.E. Wright and W.A. Moreheat-all old-time friends of the deceased.
Deceased was a native of New York, aged 65 years, 6 months and 18 days.
He was the husband of Emma Corbin, father of Lucy C., George H. and Joseph H. Corbin, Mrs. Ed Hutchins, Mrs. George Keagle and Mrs. James T. Langford of Lodi and Mrs. H.A. Hopkins of Los Angeles; brother of Charles P. and Benjamin F. Corbin and Mrs. Mary A. Eliason of Fairmont, West Virginia, and Mrs. M.E. Clowe of Knight Landing.
William Corbin was a kindly soul who had a host of friends in Northern San Joaquin. He took a great interest in politics and questions affecting the state. When Secretary of State Bryan came to California to investigate anti-alien legislation, Mr. Corbin escorted The Commoner through the Elk Grove district and proved to him that California needed such laws as would deprive Japanese from owning California land.
Up to a few years ago, Mr. Corbin was a building contractor, but failing health forced him to retire from active work.
Death was due to a stroke of apoplexy. He was stricken two weeks ago and for a time seemed to be recovering. But Saturday the end came.
