Notes for Dresden Winfield Huston HOWARD:
It was fitting that a man brought up from the pioneer's log cabin and the Indian's wigwam to be a leader and legislator of a great state should die in a farm home on the site of an Indian village. Col. Dresden Winfield Huston Howard died at his home, at Winameg on Tuesday morning, Nov. 9, 1897, just past 80yrs. of age, after a life of activity and usefulness such as few men live. From early childhood he had been actively identified with the development of this state, from the time when as a boy he advanced the early trading with the Indians to when even in advanced years he aided in the direction of state affairs and institutions. The death of Col. Howard had been long expected, as he had suffered from a cancer on his lower lip for more that two years and lately it was known that the end was close at hand. The funeral was set from the
home at Winameg, the Reverend J. W. Lully of Hicksville to conduct services. General J. Kent Hamilton of Toledo was invited to deliver the funeral oration at the tomb in compliance with a request made by Col. Howard before his death. The body was placed in a vault which he had constructed in the cemetery at Winameg. H. T. Brigham and Col. E. L. Barber of Wauseon were among the pall bearers.
