           DEATH OF JOHN D. HOWARD
The Duluth Millionaire Pioneer Passes Away
Special to the Globe
DULUTH, Minn., Sept.26--Hon. John D. Howard, one
of the pioneers at the head of the lakes, who
has been much broken in health for some time,
died at 2 p.m. to-day at his rooms in the
Morris-McDougall block. Mr. Howard was a
native of New Hampshire and was married
to Miss Hannah F. Fessenden, of Massachusetts, 
who died two years ago. They came to Superior
in 1856 and removed to Duluth in 1873. Mr.
Howard represented this district in the state
senate from 1878 to 1882, being elected as
a Republican. Five sons and one daughter,
Benjamin F., John G., Julius D., Edward C.,
Mrs. F. C. Gilbert and J. C. Howard, survive
him. He leaves a will, and, though there had 
been some misunderstandings, it is said, he 
was reconciled to all of his children. His
estate is variously estimated at between
$1,500,000 and $2,000,000, a large share of
which is in cash. He was seventy-eight
years old. The funeral will take place 
tomorrow afternoon.
