His residence in North Collins was one of the finest in the town. It was on the corner of Main and Center Streets and is occupied by Dr. James V. Fregelette, North Collins dentist. The brick barn in the rear has been remodeled into a fine building, now the North Collins Public Library. Mr. Hibbard was active in many ways in the life of the town, political and otherwise, being one of the first to advocate the running of the railroad through North Collins."
