JAHU HUNTER.

The Hunter family are from Scotch-Irish ancestrya race in which the Scotch stability, shrewdness, mental vigor, physical energy and endurance, blended with the geniality, the warm heartedness, the versality of the Irish blood has given us a people whose physical, mental and moral qualities have made them leaders and powerful promoters in every industry and in every profession, and enriched

our history with an almost endless roll of distinguished

men.

Robert and Elizabeth (Park) Hunter who were born in Ireland in 1758 and 1762 respectively, were ancestors of Jahu Hunter.

About 1808 Robert removed with his family to a farm upon the east side of the Allegheny River and built his house, a rude log cabin, about two miles below the mouth of Tidioute Creek, and this farm was his home until the end of his days. He was a quiet, industrious man, it is said, devoting himself closely to the care of his family and the clearing up and cultivation of his farm. Matthew Hunter, son of Robert and Elizabeth (Park) Hunter, married Sarah Magill and they were the parents of ten children of whom Jahu Hunter was the eldest son and upon him fell a large share of the work and responsibility of the family. Very early in life he became a valuable helper in the work of his father and an important factor in earning for the family their daily bread. In the practical affairs of the time and the region he was an advanced student and in his seventeenth year he began jobbing and getting out and banking square timber. Later he did much work in getting out and rafting lumber and running it to Pittsburg and points below. From these trips he usually returned on foot across country, sometimes securing passage on steamboats for part of the way. In this work he acquired that knowledge of timber lands and the lumber business that made his judgment in such matters so good and brought him so much success in lumbering. On January 1, 1860, he married Margaret R. Magee, daughter of Alexander and Nancy (Smith) Magee. In 1868 he became a Mason and advanced in this order to the thirty-second degree, Scottish Rite. The partnership of Mabie and Hunter, consisting of his brother-in-law and himself, was formed in 1868 and conducted a large business in general mechandising and lumber until 1882. In 1871 he joined with others in organizing the Tidioute Savings Bank, of which he gradually became the chief owner, and of which he was Presi

dent since 1883. In 1873 he formed a partnership with H. H. Cummings in the oil business. They were also associated in various other enterprises, in the Tidioute Savings Bank, in wheat lands in North Dakota, as members of the Missouri Lumber and Mining Company, in pine lands and lumbering in Missouri. The exhaustion of the oil fields about Tidioute left the borough stagnant, and to bring employment to the idle and prosperity to the community he aided in establishing the Tidioute Chair Co. and became its President and so continued until his death. Jahu Hunter was a man of unusual ability and strong individuality. Simple in his tastes, unpretentious and modest in manner and feeling, helpful to those in distress, seeking always to increase the sum of human happiness and morality and to promote the general well being of his associates. He died March 15, 1897, and is buried in Tidioute.

Livingston Legrand Hunter, only son of Jahu and Margaret R. Hunter, was born in Tidioute, Pa., Jan. 10th, 1861. He attended the home schools and later, the Pennsylvania Military Academy at West Chester, and Oberlin College, graduating from the latter institution in 1882. His business education was obtained from his association with his father and he proved an efficient teacher, as his son was an apt pupil. Gradually the large business interests of the father were delegated to the son and when the elder Mr. Hunter died in 1897, his son easily assumed the entire responsibility and discharged with great credit the many duties pertaining to a large and growing business, carrying out with conscientious fidelity every idea and plan both in business and charitable enterprises originated by his father. After his death his wife and mother followed the same plan in trying to fulfill the wishes of the elder Mr. Hunter. Thus we see the generous impulses of one good man continuing to bear fruit for many years.

The fine high school building erected by Mrs. Jahu Hunter and Mrs. L. L. Hunter to the memory of their loved ones is most typical of the men it was built to honor.

Livingston Hunter was married January 6, 1887, to Lillian Acomb, daughter of Dr. James L. Acomb of Tidioute. He met a most tragic death on April 20, 1902, when the steamer "Pittsburg" was destroyed by fire near Cairo, on the Mississippi River.

Many of Mr. Hunter's qualities were inherited from his capable mother who was a woman of unusual strength of character and sterling worth. She will long be remembered and honored. In her death the remaining members of her family lost a wise counsellor and friend.
