Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Memory of Hope Reed Cody: Born April 14, 1870, Died November 7 1899 Hope Reed Cody was born at Naperville, DuPage county, Illinois, April 14, 1870. He was the youngest son of Hiram H. Cody, for many years judge of the Circuit Court of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit, and Philomela E. Cody, whose maiden name was Sedgwick. In his early environment he was exceptionally fortunate. He had the association, during his entire youth, of his father, who was honored in many ways by the people of his county, as no one before or since, and of his mother, who was respected and beloved by all. He was able to have much more real companionship with mother and father, brothers and sisters, than would be possible in a large community, and thereby his early development was more rapid. Being the youngest child perhaps his chances of virility were greater on that account. In his boyhood he was privileged to breathe the pure air of the country; to live close to nature, and yet near enough to the western metropolis to feel its impulse and absorb its ambition. Even in this early period of life he evidenced his genius for leadership. Two instances may be noted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
