FRANCIS HERMAN HAMMOND.
Former Coudersport Resident Died on Friday.
Francis Herman Hammond, who for many years was one of the representative citizens of Coudersport, died at his home in Binghamton last Friday. His death was caused by a severe nervous affliction with which he had long suffered. Mr. Hammond was the founder of the tannery, which has grown to be one of the most important of our industries. The tannery station was named for him but several years ago the waiting room burned and it has gradually fallen into disuse. About fifteen years ago Mr. Hammond retired from business since which time he has made Binghamton his home. He was past seventy years of age and leaves a wife and one son, Frederick Hammond, who is a banker in Binghamton.
Mrs. S. Burr, of Hattiesburg, Miss., who visits here nearly every summer is a sister of Mrs. Hammond.
The funeral was held Monday.
