Mr. Hibbard is a member of the Horse-breeders' Association, one of the most successful, if not the only successful, association for trotting horses in the state. He was elected mayor of the city in 1865. He was one of the principal stockholders in the organization of the People's National Bank, was vice-president, and still retains his interest. Mr. Hibbard has been very successful in the accumulation of property, and is one of the largest holders of
real estate in the city.
Joshua Palmer came to Jacksonburgh in 1835, and engaged in business as a blacksmith. He was a very skillful workman. He worked many years at his trade, and acquired a competence by his industry and frugality. Mr. Palmer has always stood high in the estimation of his fellow-citizens as an honest and upright man. In 1837 his brother, Dan R. Palmer, became his partner. His son William H. Palmer is now a practicing physician in the city.
