The funeral procession that followed the remains of Henry Egge to their final resting place last Monday, was the largest ever witnessed in Grand Island. The deceased was one of the pioneer settlers of Hall County, having located here with the first colony, in 1857, and remained here ever since. In all his dealings with his fellow men he was strictly honorable, and as he never meddled with the affairs of other men he enjoyed the respect and confidence of all who knew him; and who was there in Grand Island that did not know "milk-man Egge," who for so many years, rain or shine, made his regular trips to his customers. He was quite well-to-do, and leaves his wife and children in easy circumstances. He lived an upright life and has now gone to his final rest, mourned by hundreds of the good people of Hall County.
The funeral was conducted by the members of the Grand Island Liederkranz, of which he was an honorable member. Peace to his memory.
