1. Obituary 12, The Newton Evening Kansan-Republican, 29 Sep 1936 in Newton, Kansas
Word has been received by Newton friends of the death September 28 of H. W. Hubbard, of Siloam Springs, Arkansas, and formerly as resident of this city. The news came through the elder son Corril Hubbard of Kalamazoo, Michigan who was leaving for Siloam Springs. Mr. Hubbard was 89 years of age and he and Mrs. Hubbard had hoped soon to celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard and their three sons, Corril, Gene, and Harold left Newton in the late nineties leaving many warm friendships in Newton which have never been severed. Newton has been dear to them throughout their years of residence in Arkansas, and Newton friends hae never failed to call on the honored couple when on motor trips to that vicinity. Death claimed the second son Gene. Harold is living in Arkansas and it was through him that the older son Corril was summoned to the aid of their mother in this time of sorrow. Further details are not known as yet, but will probably come later.

J.C. Johnston Answers 'Taps'. Harvey Co. Homesteader and Civil War Veteran Passes On. John Calvin Johnston, 85 year old Civil War Veteran, died at his home at 623 1/2 Main last evening at nine o'clock. Mr. Johnston had been in frail health for some time, but yesterday did not complain and was about a little more than usual. Shortly before nine o'clock his son, Don W. Johnston who has lived with his father for the past seven years, went to the post office for the mail. He took it up to his father, went downstairs... going back at nine o'clock. He found his father lyig in the hall connecting the living room with the kitchen, for which place he had probably started to get a drink. The son called help and lifted his father to his bed where he breathed his last a few minutes later.
Mr. Johnston's death takes from the community one of its best known and highly respected citizens and one of the pioneers of this locality. He and his two brothers, Milton A. and Will E., arrived in this county o May 1, 1871 from Indiana Couty, PA., he homesteading the southeast quarter of section 34, Highland township. He lived there for about ten years moving to Newton when he became county treasurer for four years and for thirty years has been in the real estate business here, at the same time handling all old soldiers' pensions for the local Judson Kilpatrick post. He has kept their records for years, his books being an example of good penmanship and careful detail. He was married Nov. 17, 1868 at Pine Flats, PA., to Mary Perry, leavig his wife and oldest son, Sam, in Pennsylvania when he and his brothers came to Kansas. They joined him later when he had a place prepared for them.
In the meantime he had joined Company A, 61st Pennsylvania Volunteers in May, 1864, and served his country during Civil War days. It was at the Spottsylvania Courthouse famous battle of that war that Mr. Johnston received the wound that he carried for life. On the morning of July 5, he had stationed himself behind a tree and was pkcing off gunners of the enemy. They soon spooted him and turned a cannon on the tree which sheltered him. A shell struck the tree and a large piece tore away the left side of his face. He lay there all day and at nighta detail of his company was sent back to gather up their dead. A comrade discovered he was still breathing and sent him 20 miles on a feed wagon to an emergency hospital. He was given temporary treatment and sent home on a furlough. A year later he determined to have some surgery done to permit removal of a mask and his bravery was again demonstrated when he refused to take an anesthetic for two hours of cutting on his face. His patriotism, continued thru life. He was one of the original memebers of the National Guard here and a charter member of the Judson Kilpatrick post, being secretary of that organization at the time of his death.
Mr. Johnston was born on July 1, 1846 in Indiana County, Pa., a son of Samuel H. and Sarah (Darr) Johnston, making him 85 years, ten months and 11 days at the time of his death. His two brothers and his wife have passed on, the latter about 22 years ago. She was buried in Greenwood cemetery, in which Mr. Johnston and his two brothers, dug the first grave. There are surviving him this his three sons, Sam P. of Crawley, La., Harry H., of Rosemead, Calif., and Don W. at home. Mr. Johnston will be at the Sprinkler Mortuary until the funeral hour which will be Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the First Presbyterian church, the Rev. F. E. Black officiating.

The deceased never lost his identity with the "boys i blue" with whom he served during Civil War days and in which service he nearly lost his life during the battle of Spotsylvania Court House, Va., the scar of which he bore all of his days. The adjuntant's records were in his desk when death came so suddenly the evening of May 12.
Friends made thruout the yeears gathered to show their respect and sympathy, for sixty one of his 85 years have been spent in this community where he and his two brothers helped in organizing what is ow known as Highland township. Newton city has been his home for many years and it was here that he and Mrs. Johnston reared their three sons, Sam, Harry, and Don. Mrs. Johnston has gone on before, as have the two brothers, W.E. and Milton, and their sister, Mrs. Trembley.
