Hines, who died last Monday, was a native son of Oregon, born in Washington County and received his education at the Forest Grove schools. He came to Jackson County in 1889 and was married to Mrs. Pauline Johnson in 1890. He bought the Union livery stables and moved to Jacksonville in 1891. Mr. Hines was a superior business man, fair and honorable in all his dealings, and uniformly affable and courteous in all the relations of life. His acquaintances at once became his friends, and he had, in an unusual measure, the confidence of all who knew him. It is not believed he had an enemy living. He has been a number of times a member of the town council and was a member at the time of his death. He belonged to Banner lodge, A. O. U. W., and Degree of Honor, of Jacksonville, P. P. Prim Cabin Native Sons, and was an Artisan. He leaves a wife and three sons, Fred, who is in eastern Oregon, Claud, living in Yamhill County, and little Rowell, who is at home with his mother. His stepson, Wm. Johnson, is also at home. The funeral took place from the family residence at 2 o’clock Wednesday afternoon under the auspices of the Workman lodge. The members of the D. Of H. And Native Sons in regalia joined the procession and these, with many visiting members of other lodges, made the procession a very large one. Rev. W. B. Moore offered prayer and made a short address when the procession reached the grave, after which the regular funeral services of the order was [sic] read by Past Grand Master Colvig. The ceremony was very solemn and impressive. And thus was laid to rest the remains of an exceptionally good man.
