AN OLD PIONEER GONE
Hugh Shanks, an old pioneer, brother of Dave and John Shanks and
father of Albert Shanks, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Jack Smith at Hemlock early Friday morning, October 23 at the age
of 73 years.
Mr. Shanks has been an invalid for two years, having been confined
to his bed since April 1906, when he fell and sprained his
ankle.
Mr. Shanks came to Clark County in the early 80's from LaCrosse
County. Further mention will be made next week.
