DEATH OF JOSIAH GODDARD
The death of Josiah Goddard which occurred on the 21st ult., 1882, at his home in Ft. Atkinson, Iowa, is of especial interest to our readers, as the deceased was one of the earliest pioneers of this section, and was prominently identified with the development of our county, during the first sixteen years of its history. He was a man of large intelligence and striking originality of character, which with the noble and generous traits uniformly manifest in his intercourse with society, and the spirit of enterprise which characterized the more active period of his life, caused him to be a conspicuous figure in our early annals.
