View a history of Terre Haute.

Under this head we propose to give extended biographies or personal sketches of a large number of the leading citizens of Terre Haute and vicinity, not only of early settlers, but also of the more modern. The items have been obtained, as far as possible, from the parties themselves, or their intimate friends, and are believed to be perfectly reliable. Many of the subjects have already been mentioned in the preceding pages, but we believe it will add vastly to our work as a book of reference and as a basis for the future historian, to give to this department a most minute detail. As far as practicable, the sketches have been arranged in chronological order or rather than in the order of coming to the township or county.--[Ed.

F.W. HERTWIG, grocer, Terre Haute, is one of the young business men of Terre Haute, who has proved by his success his business ability. He was born in Terre Haute, and is now twenty-five years old. Previous to his engaging in the grocery trade, in 1872, he had been in the employ of Mr. E. OHM, dealer in boots and shoes. He took a course of bookkeeping at the Terre Haute Commercial College, and kept the books for Mr. OHM before leaving his employ, though when he left he was but seventeen years of age. His step-father, Mr. O. KUHLMAN, had engaged in the grocery trade at No. 730 Poplar street, where their business house still remains, and was having but poor success, when Mr. HERTWIG, then but seventeen years old, stepped in as manager of the business, and by his good financiering and close attention to business he has built up a good trade, increased the stock of goods, and enlarged the store-room, until now every year is adding to their business an increase of trade. To such men as Mr. HERTWIG should be given the credit of building up the business industries of the city of Terre Haute.

JAMES N. HICKMAN, dealer in the White sewing machine, 306 Main street, Terre Haute, was born in Georgetown township, Floyd county, Indiana, October 6, 1849.

He was there five years, and then went to Chicago and was engaged one year in the grocery business. He afterward returned to New Albany, where he commenced the sale of the White sewing machine, remaining there one year. He obtained the agency for the sale of the White sewing machine in the city of Terre Haute and country surrounding in January 1877, and sold the first year about 200 machines. Since that time his business has increased so that he is now selling upward of 500 machines per year. He is one of the live business men of Terre Haute, and will make his mark among his many competitors. He was married May 11, 1880, to Miss Maggie HANCOCK, daughter of B.H. HANCOCK, of Fredricksburg, Washington county, Indiana, who was born in Harrison county, Indiana, June 1860. His father, Preston HICKMAN, was born in Floyd county, and in the same township in which his son James was born. He was married in 1845 to Miss Sarah ROSS, and in 1849 he went to California and staid three years, and brought home with him the money with which he bought his present farm, the ROSS farm, on which his wife, Sarah ROSS HICKMAN, was born, raised and died. She died August 1879. His business has always been farming. James N. HICKMAN was born and raised on the farm, which is the place where nearly all of our successful business men originate.

EMIL HIRSCHBERG, tobacconist, Terre Haute, has taken an important place among the dealers in his line of goods in Terre Haute. He is a native of Berlin, Germany, where he was born January 8, 1838. He was educated in Europe and spent his life there in travel and business till 1864, when he came to the United States. He spent a short time in New York city after his arrival, and in the fall of 1864 went to St. Louis, Missouri, and began working for a firm of large tobacco dealers. He remained there until 1867, and then went back to New York city, where he remained till 1868. From that city he went to Buffalo and began traveling. His intentions were to have become a resident of Chicago, but while there, in 1871, during the fire, he was unfortunate enough to lose property, which event changed his plans for the future. He came to Terre Haute in the fall of 1871, and as the prospects in Chicago were not flattering, he concluded to remain. His first engagement was with the firm of Ripley & Demming, for whom he kept books for a short time. He then bought an interest in the "Banner," the German organ of the city, and became the editor of that paper. He continued to edit the "Banner" for about one and a half years, and then sold out, after which he spent a short time in travel through the south and east. Returning to Terre Haute he again became connected with the "Banner," but only as editor and manager, not as a part owner. In 1877 he quit journalism and began merchandising. His present place of business is No. 529 Main street. Dependent upon his own resources, he has displayed an energy and enterprise in his business that in three years� time has changed his standing from a small retail dealer to that of one of the principal retail and jobbing houses in the city in his line. To such men as he must be given the credit of building up and pushing forward this line of the business industries of Terre Haute.

WILLIAM P. HOCTOR, plumber and steam and gas fitter, though a resident of Terre Haute for but about six years, has already established a good trade in the line of plumbing, steam and gas fitting. He is a native of Ireland, but at the age of eight years he came to the United States with his people. They settled in Rochester, New York, where at the age of sixteen years he was bound out until he would be twenty-one years of age, to learn his present business.

He remained in the service but about twenty-two months, when he was discharged on account of disability brought on by fever. During his service he was under fire about fourteen times and was at both the battles of Winchester. For some time after leaving the army he was located at Chicago, Illinois, but became a resident of Terre Haute in 1878. In February, 1877, when the Governor�s Guard of Terre Haute was organized, he was made captain of the company, which position he still holds. He was one of the organizers of that military company, and has since taken a pride in keeping it up. His place of business is located at No. 12 South Sixth street, where he keeps a neat stock of everything required in his line. He is now about thirty-seven years of age, and has been wholly dependent upon his own resources in the building up of a good business.

MARTIN HOLLINGER, one of the attorneys of Terre Haute in good standing at the Vigo county bar, is a native of Preble county, Ohio. He is a man now about forty-four years old. The early part of his life was spent at farming. In 1837 he came with his people to Terre Haute, and his father, soon after arriving, began shipping goods to New Orleans by flat-boat. He had engaged in this but a short time when, by accident, he was drowned. By this accident Martin was left to the care of his mother, who, when he was eight years old, sent him to Montgomery county, Ohio, where for six years he was under the care of an uncle. At the end of this time he returned to Terre Haute, and for six years was employed by one man who was engaged in farming, after which he engaged at farming on his own account, which he continued until 1862, and then entered the Union army in the war of 1861-5. He enlisted in Co. G, 85th Ind. Vol. Inf., under Col. J.B. BAIRD, and remained in the service until the close of the war. His regiment being connected with ranger's reserve corp, he experienced both hard marching and fighting, being fifty-two days on the Atlanta campaign. He returned to Terre Haute in July, 1865, and shortly after began the study of law with Mr. MACK, of the firm of Allen & Mack. After completing his studies he was admitted to the bar, and engaged in the practice of law until 1868, when he was elected to the office of county clerk. In 1873 he was reelected to the same office. At the expiration of this term of service, in 1877, he again began the practice of law, which occupation he is now busily engaged in, and with success.

B. HOLMES, real estate dealer, Terre Haute, is one of the active, wide-awake business real estate men of the city. He was born March 30, 1833, in Fairfield county, Ohio. There he received his early education, and at the age of nineteen years took charge of Kirksville station as railroad agent. In 1857 he came to Terre Haute, where the first thing he did was to take a thorough course in bookkeeping. He then entered Shannon's bank, where he remained for a time, and then spent some years as salesman. He has now been engaged in his present business for about eleven years. Besides his business of selling and trading real estate and merchandise in the vicinity of Terre Haute, he is land agent at this point for the Iron Mountain railroad, in which line he is doing quite an extensive business. He was about the fourth signer of the greenback club, and in 1876 was treasurer of the committee in their campaign. Mr. HOLMES is probably the most active member of the order of I.O.O.F. in the city. He was initiated into the order of June 25, 1854, in Evergreen Lodge, No. 238, of Kirksville, Ohio. About twelve years ago he transferred his membership to Terre Haute Lodge, No. 51, of Terre Haute. He has passed all the chairs of the subordinate lodge, and is a member of the grand encampment, in which he is past chief patriarch and past grand. During his conneciton with the order he has aided in initiating over 1,000 members into the order. Though he has taken so much interest in the order of Odd Fellows, he has not on that account neglected his business, as he is now one of the shrewd, sharp, though honest, real estate men of the city.

W.C. HOLMES, lumber merchant, Terre Haute, of the firm of Briggs & Holmes, has for many years been identified with this branch of the business industries of Terre Haute. Their office is No. 925 Chestnut street, and in close proximity to the yard, which is usually stocked with about 1,000,000 feet of lumber, a quantity of which is black walnut, in which they do a jobbing business. They keep a supply of all manner of building material properly belonging to their branch of business, in which is usually embraced about 500,000 shingles and 100,000 lath. Their annual sales of lumber will aggregate about 4,000,000 feet. To conduct their business properly, they give employment regularly to about five men. Mr. HOLMES is a native of Knox county, Indiana, and his people were among the early settlers of that county. His early education was received through the old subscription system. He became a resident of Terre Haute in 1847, and for about fifteen years thereafter he was employed at his trade, which is that of a carpenter. In 1862 he accepted the position of foreman in the lumber yard of W.B. TUELL, and in 1878 he became associated with Mr. BRIGGS in the lumber trade, in which business he is still engaged, one of the enterprising, respectable business men of Terre Haute, of good reputation.

CHARLES E. HOSFORD, attorney, Terre Haute, one of the leading and long established attorneys of the city of Terre Haute, had occasion sometime since to trace the genealogy of his family back to and beyond the emigration of the first of the name to the United States. He found the name of HOSFORD was something over 200 years old in the United States. He also found the name to be of English origin, and formerly to have been spelled OSFORD, but by the peculair pronunciation of the name by the English, who always prefixed the aspirate H, it was changed to HOSFORD, with the emigration of Dr. OSFORD to the United States over two centuries ago. Dr. OSFORD settled in Rhode Island, and from him all who bear the name HOSFORD, in the United States, have sprung. Chas. E. HOSFORD, the subject of our sketch, was born in Thetford, Vermont. He received a collegiate education, and studied civil engineering with a view of making it a business for life, but afterward abandoned the idea and entered the legal profession. He had also devoted a great deal of time to the study of Latin and French, and for some time previous to becoming a resident of Terre Haute he had been employed by the proprietor of a large business house in New York city, as French interpreter. He has now been a resident of Terre Haute for about twenty-two years, and has been practicing law about twenty-one years of the time. He began the study of his profession with Judge A. KINNEY, with whom he afterward became a partner in the practice. Since the dissolution of the partnership between himself and Judge KINNEY he has had two different partners, the firms being Hosford & Brown and Hosford & Boudinot. At present he is engaged in the practice of law alone, and as before stated is one of the leading and representative attorneys of the Vigo county bar.

Col. R.N. HUDSON, retired, Terre Haute, who is one of the old and prominent citizens of Terre Haute, is a native of Indiana, his father having settled in Brookville in 1819. He is descended from an old stock of sea captains, whose ancestor settled on the eastern coast of Maryland more than two hundred years ago. This ancestor received from the English government a grant known as the Hudson grant, of twelve miles square, on the eastern coast of Maryland, for services rendered the government in the navy and merchant marine. This large body of land was held in the family down to the time of the Colonel's father, who sold his interest only when he determined to come west. They were a race of hardy, strong and long-lived men, with constitutions such as men have who spend their time on the "ocean wave." Col. HUDSON came to Terre Haute in 1840, and in 1841 entered the Asbury University, at Greencastle, Indiana, from which he graduated in 1844. Returning to Terre Haute, he read law in the office of R.W. THOMPSON, present secretary of the United States navy, and commenced practice in 1847. In 1849 he was first elected to the state legislature, and again in 1858. During this session, which was the first after the adoption of the present constitution of the state, he was chairman of the committee on banks, and was the father of the free banking system which existed in the state until it was superseded by the national banks. In 1856 he purchased the Terre Haute daily and weekly "Express," and edited it until the close of the campaign which elected Mr. Lincoln. His paper was one of the first to advocate the nomination of Mr. Lincoln, and, as a delegate to the Chicago convention, he threw all the might of his influence in that direction. After the campaign in 1860, the legislature elected him the financial agent for the state in the city of New York. While in the discharge of his duties as agent of state, the war of the rebellion commenced, when he at once placed the business of the agency in the hands of a clerk and went into the service. Receiving a colonel's commission, he was ordered to duty as a staff officer under Maj. Gen. FREMONT, in the Missouri campaign. When Gen. FREMONT was superseded and ordered to return to St. Louis, Col. HUDSON refused to return with all of the rest of the staff, and was at once placed on the staff of Gen. HUNTER, where he served during the remainder of that campaign. When the "Mountain Department" in Virginia was organized and Gen. FREMONT ordered to take command of it, he asked that Col. HUDSON be again assigned to duty as one of his military family. Mr. LINCOLN, with the approval of the senate, commissioned him colonel of cavalry, and ordered him to duty as staff officer in the "Mountain Department". He remained with FREMONT until that officer was relieved of his command, and then came to Terre Haute and organized the 133d reg. Ind. Inf., and commanded it during its term of service. He was in the war for over three years, and almost up to the day of its close. In politics Col. HUDSON was an abolitionist, in full sympathy with Owen LOVEJOY, who was his messmate in the Missouri campaign. He was a radical republican until Gen. LEE laid down his arms at Appomattox Court House, and then he was a liberal. As an earnest advocate of his liberal sentiments toward the defeated rebels, he started the Terre Haute daily and weekly "Gazette," and advocated the liberal side of republicanism. He attended the Cincinnati convention which nominated Mr. GREELEY, and advocated his election. After the election he sold the "Gazette," and afterward purchased the Terre Haute "Journal," and conducted it until 1873, when he retired from journalism. Perhaps the most important service which Col. HUDSON has rendered his state, was in the adoption by the legislature of what is known as "The State Debt Bill." This bill he drew, and advocated its passage until it became the law. Under its provisions the debt of the state was paid, and the school fund placed upon a solid and permanent basis, thus preserving the financial reputation of the state, and relieving the people of heavy taxation. After this Col. HUDSON organized the scheme for closing the trust of the Wabash and Erie canal, and on behalf of the holders of the canal stock, finally and forever settling up that important financial matter. This is now about being accomplished, and soon he will have the satisfaction of seeing the large debt of the state contracted under her internal improvement system, finally, properly and forever adjusted, and mainly through his efforts and influence.

HERMAN HULMAN, wholesale grocer, Terre Haute, whose name is familiar to the citizens of Terre Haute, is a native of the kingdom of Hanover, Germany. He is now a man of about forty-eight years of age. His early life was spent in his native country. His father being a merchant, he acquired some knowledge of merchandising while doing business for him. This knowledge, when, at the age of fifteen years, he began serving an apprenticeship in a large wholesale grocery house, lessened the customary period of four years to three. In addition to serving the three years he was also obliged to pay $100 per year to the firm to whom he was apprenticed. In 1854 he emigrated to the United States, and the same year became a resident of Terre Haute. Shortly after his arrival he engaged in business, which he has gradually increased year by year until his wholesale grocery house is said to be the largest in the State of Indiana. To this he has recently added a large spice-mill, 63x140 feet, which fronts on Fifth street. This establishment is supplied with an engine of ninety horse-power, and has a capacity for roasting one hundred sacks of coffee per day, in addition to the regular daily manufacture of other spices. This addition to his business also adds about ten men to the army of his employes. The grocery house proper is 40x150 feet, three floors and basement, and is located on the corner of Fifth and Main streets. Probably no better estimate of the magnitude of the business done by this house can be given than the figures of the gentleman who does the transferring of receipts and shipments of goods, who says that the daily average of goods transferred by him is about seventy-five tons. The importance of this trade cannot be over-estimated as a branch of the business industries of Terre Haute, nor can too much praise be awarded the proprietor, Mr. Herman HULMAN.

Mrs. M.C. HUMOSTON, dealer in confectionery, Terre Haute, is now carrying on the business which was established by her son John in 1878. He began when he was twenty-two years old by buying a small stock of goods and engaging in the baker's trade, which he had learned. His first baking was seven loaves, from which small beginning he gradually increased the business, till in three years' time he required seven barrels of flour every night to supply the demand he had created for his breadstuffs. After conducting the business for three years he sickened and died. Though young, he had displayed a business ability that had he lived would in time have placed him among the leading business men of the city. Mrs. HUMOSTON has been a resident of Terre Haute for twenty-two years. Her husband was away most of the time until his death, which occurred about 1872, while he was in Texas. He served his country during the war of the rebellion, in which he was engaged about four years. After the death of her son Mrs. HUMOSTON became his successor in business. She is now making more a specialty of small toys, in which she has the leading trade of the city. Her place of trade is No. 30 South Fourth street, where in a pleasant, courteous way she quietly attends to her business.

JAMES HUNTER, dealer in men�s furnishing goods, Terre Haute. It is an infrequent thing to meet men who are such capital financiers that they succeed admirably in almost any undertaking. James HUNTER, of No. 523 Main street, seems to be of this class. He is a native of the north of Ireland. Though he has been a resident of the United States but ten years, he is as fluent a speaker as native-born Americans. This is due partly to a good education, and partly to his native place being in a Protestant community. He has now been engaged in the mercantile business fifteen years, and ten years in his present line, seven of which he has spent in Terre Haute. He is now but twenty-seven years old, and has established a trade more extensive than many men are able to do at the age of fifty years. As before stated, he is located at No. 523 Main street, where he occupies a room 22x140 feet, besides the basement and thirty feet of the second floor. His stock consists of a fine line of gents� furnishing goods, though his specialty is the manufacture of shirts. In 1877 he established the Troy laundry in connection with his business. To fit this up for perfect work he has spent about $2,000, one notable feature being a handsome horse and vehicle with which to gather up and return goods from the laundry. In all he gives employment to about seventeen hands. The Troy laundry is well appreciated by the citizens of Terre Haute, if one may judge by the continued rush of business to the place. In this, as in other things, Mr. HUNTER seems to have anticipated the wants of the public. He now has a trade established in Terre Haute of which he may well be proud.

PENCE HUSSEY, banker, Terre Haute, who since 1865 has been president of the National State Bank of Terre Haute, is a native of Vigo county. His father was a native of Baltimore, from which city he removed to Vincennes as early as the year 1818. In 1820 he left Vincennes and with his family removed to Terre Haute. He was one of the first to begin merchandising in the then small village. Later, however, he removed to the country and became a resident of Lost Creek township, where he engaged in farming. It was during this residence in the country that the subject of this sketch was born, and where the family resided until he was about four years old, when they again became residents of Terre Haute. The early life of Mr. HUSSEY however, was spent in the country. There being none but the old subscription school system in Vigo county at that time, he was educated by his father's teaching, who, having had the advantages of the schools of Baltimore during his early life, was a gentleman of culture and well fitted to aid his children in acquiring an education. On leaving the farm, Mr. HUSSEY accepted the position of clerk in the Terre Haute post-office. This position he filled about two years, and then began clerking in the old state bank, which was the first organized bank in Terre Haute. He became associated with the state bank in 1852 and continued his connection with it until 1865, when he accepted the position of cashier in the National State bank. Upon the death of Mr. WARREN, under whom the bank was organized, he was made president and has since remained at the head of that organization. He is one of the few citizens of Terre Haute whose early life was spent with few advantages, yet who are now the most wealthy, enterprising and respected citizens of the city.
