OBITUARY: Funeral Services for Henry (Hugh) G. Hocking held on Friday. Funeral services for Henry G. Hocking were held from the Muleshoe Methodist church last Friday afternoon being conducted by the local pastor, Rev. R.S. Watkins, and interment made in the cemetery a few miles northwest of this city. Mr. Hocking died Wednesday morning of last week at a Lubbock sanitarium from the complication of conditions producing heart failure. He was one of the pioneer citizens of this section, having been a resident of Bailey County and Muleshoe for the past 20 years. Little of his past life is known by fellow citizens. Whether he was born in Illinois or Ohio or some other state is not clear; but it is known he was born October 3, 1868, and was therefore, past 68 years of age at death. He came from a Methodist family, yet it is unkown if he ever had any churchly connection of his own. It is unknown by many of his former business friends and acquaintances that he lived the practical Christian life rather than a theoretical kind, for he was continually doing something for his fellow man. He has helped many in times of need. Some of the pall bearers who carried him to his last resting place, and many of the congregation who listened to the last rites pronounced over his body, were sometime during past years beneficiaries of his generosity and philanthropic nature. Quietly and without ostentation he gave of his own assist to others needy and deserving. No one will ever know how much,for these simple humanitarian acts were never heralded befor the public, rather was it his custom to say nothing about them at all. Being naturally generous; but he was always known to be on the humanitarian side of every question arising, expressing himself feelingly in such directions. Deceased is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Elizabeth A. Haddock, Cleveland, Okla., and Mrs. Fannie J. Hocking, Amarillo, two nephews, Howard Hocking, Albion, Illinois, and George Hocking, Kutch , Colo. None of his relatives were present at the funeral service; but his remains were as tenderly laid away by sincere friends and neighbors as though he had been surrounded by a large retinue of a kinsman. Just a few days before his death, realizing the end was near, he called an attorney to his bedside and made his will, leaving the little remaining property after funeral expenses are paid, to his two nephews. The Rix undertaking Co., Lubbock, was in charge of funeral arrangments. Typed by Mrs. Elizabeth R. Lamb and in her files, Drawer D, Thomas Hocking file.
