Obituary.
The following is a short sketch of the life of the late Dr. J.C. Hawver, who died in Auburn May 15, 1914, and is so deeply lamented by every man, woman and child in Auburn, and innumerable friendes in Placer county:

Dr. Hawver was born October 4, 1854, at North San Juan, California. Upon his fathers side he was of Dutch and German stock, and his mother was a Douglas of Scotland. She was a very superior woman in every way. Early left with the burden of rearing a large family, she struggled bravely and exercised every self denial to give of her best to the growing family, and she inculcated in them her own lofty ideal of character and conduct. It was their delight to gather about her knee while she read to them.

To his mother Dr. Hawver owed his stanch uprightness, his beautiful, affectionated nature and his thirst for knowledge.

At an early age his mother placed him upon a cattle ranch under the care of the owner, who was a man of excellent principles.

Here he led an outdoor life, where his horse was his chief companion, and where he acquired a sturdy independence and self reliance that stood him in good steat in his later life.

He had little opportunity of schooling, but his naturally active mind and indomitable courage and a very retentive memory made his own all knowledge that came within his path.

When he was about eighteen years of age the family transferred their residence to Nevada county. There the lad did various things for a livelihood, working in a store, teaming, etc.

At thenty-three he married Miss Lutie Backus. His wife was material help and assistance to him in his quest for knowledge in their early married years, she having had more educational advantages.

All during his professional career he was greatly interested in all branches of history, but early began to specialize on geology.

The last days of his life he (with his fellow trustee, F.E. Byre) was busy in the work of attendant in the calling if the bond election to build a new and modern school house for the beloved children of Auburn under his care. Even in the hours when Death was so near he took thought of this, and completed arrangements i the matter unfinished from the day before.
