Funeral service was held today

News was received here Thurs
day night of the death of l)r.
Charles Calvin' Hubbard, 76,
which occurred at his home at
Parmer, Randolph county, late
Thursday afternoon.
Dr. Hubbard Was a native ot
Wilkes county, where he was born
January 14, 1868, the son of Wil
liam and Jane Saner Hubbard. At
the age of 17 he began the study
ot medicine under the direction of
the late Dr. Ldury Stokes, of
Wllkesboro, and a year later en
tered Jefferson Medical college,
Philadelphia, completing a two-
year course and received his di
ploma In April, 1888.
Returning to Wilkes county. Dr.
Hubbard began practice at Mora
vian Palls. Aftbr four years there
and at Wilkesboro he went to
Worthyllle, Randolph county,
where he remained 1908,
when he located at Farmer.
He was married June 21, 1893,
to Miss Frances Porter, of Ashe-
boro, first cousin of William Sid
ney Porter (0. Henry). She had
been a teacher In Randolph coun
ty schools. She died November 16,
1943. Surviving are two daugh
ters, Mrs. C. Elbert Kearns,
Greensboro, and Hope Hubbard,
of the home, and one grandchild,
Elbert Kearns, Greensboro.
A brother, W. R. Hubbard, of
Moravian Palls, and a sister, Mrs.
W. S. Surratt, of Hyattsvllle, Md.,
also survive.
The funeral was held Saturday
afternoon at 3 o’clock at Science
Hill Friends church, near Farmer.
Interment was made afterwards
in the family plot In the Asheboro
cemetery.
Dr. Hubbard was a member of
the Science Hill Monthly Meeting
of Friends; had held the office of
elder for many years and con
tributed as liberally as possible to
all the activities of his denomina
tion.
Ever since he located in Ran
dolph Dr. Hubbard had been as
sociated with Sunday school work
of his county and state, having
served as county president of the
Interdenominational Sunday
School association. He often at
tended both state and county Sun
day school conventions, contribut
ing both time and money to ad
vancement ot the work. He was
also an earnest worker for tem
perance and prohibition.
He had been a member of Ran
dolph County Medical society
since 1892 and had served at
various times as its president, its
secretary and on important com
mittees. For several years he had
been an honorary fellow of the
North Carolina Medical society.
The following tribute to the
life of Dr. Hubbard was read at
the funeral service by Dr. G. W.
Joyner, president of the Randolph
Medical Association, on behalf of
the association;
‘‘The word of the passing of Dr.
C. C. Hubbard brought to me that
sense of weighty depression which
always accompanies the sustain
ing of severe personal loss. As I
consider the life of this man, who
was an ornament to his profession
and to his county, I was moved to
place upon the written page some
of the countless thoughts and re
flections which engaged my mind.
‘"Tc the medical profession of
Randolph county, the loss of our
most reverened and respected col-
legue is irreplaceable. For more
than 50 years he strove for the
advancement of knowledge and
the perfection of professional
ideals through our medical asso
ciation. He served us well as
president, secretary, and as head
of our most important committees,
but of deeper slgnifance was the
constant example of his own noble
life and works. Wherever Dr.
Hubbard sat in our councils, there
was the head of the table. He re
tained a youthful and vigorous
outlook toward his chosen pro
fession; he was eager always to
advocate strenuously Jhe explora
tion ot any course of knowledge
which might lead to the allevia
tion of human suffering and mis
ery.
“To me personally. Dr. Hub-
hard was much more than a fel
low-worker, a professional col
league. Although I enjoyed the
privilege of his friendship only for
a brief span of years, I could not
hold him in higher regard If this
privilege had extended through
the whole course of his long and
useful life. To me he was an Im-
splratioD—an inspiration which
challenged me to greater achieve
ment for the honor of the profes
slon which he so nobly graced. To
me he was guide, counselor, and
friend. 1 think perhaps my first
impression of Dr. Hubbard was:
"Here Is a man who practices
medicine both with mind and
heart”. This early conviction was
confirmed and strengthened as I
came more and more Into contact
with men, women, and children
who were, or who had been, his
patients. Their testimony com
poses a tribute to this great,
Christian gentleman which is more
enduring than if It were cast In
bronze. His was a gentle nature
—closely interwoven with his
knowledge was the generosity of
a sympathetic q>irlt. He took up
on his own hecurt the burdens of
his patients; their snfterin^ were
his enffwlncs, and his ready
response to their nail was never
tempered with nay iSionght for hts
own material rMrud,
“Jut a«^;^Wrd been
an inspkatfoh tp' i£s so he, too,
bad his own laaptratloa.'. He, too,
had « guide, eotmselor, and friend.
Those of yon who have known him
longer, and perhaps better, than t

this inspiration. Bb was the Great
Z .hysiclan of daUlOe, vthose pre
cept and example cast a shining
light down through the agcaa And
counted among those who walked
in this light, with firm tread and
with eyes turned toward Hla
countenance, was our brother phy
sician, Dr. C. C. Hubbard, who has
now attained his reward at the
very source of that light”.
Those attending the funeral and
burial services from this county
were Mr. W. R. Hubbard and
daughters, Misa Ruth Hubbard
and Mrs. Lawrence Criteber, and
Mrs. Ralph Hubbard, of Moravian
Falls; Mr. James C. Hubbard, Mr.
and Mrs. Julius C. Hubbard
and Mrs. Lula C. Hubbard, of
WUkesboro. Mr. and Mrs. Ray
mond Harris, of Elkin, also at
tended the services, Mre. Harris
being a niece of the deceased.
