H. M. Hoxie was a native of Macedon, New York. He early in life moved to Iowa ; showed in boyhood energy, decision of character, and, during the war, on account of his conspicuous ability and tact in the con- trol and management of men, was appointed Provost Marshal of the State. In this position he performed his duties in such an impartial manner as to attract the attention of the civil as well as military officials. When the building of the Union Pacific Railway was undertaken, Mr. Hoxie was ...offered a position of trust and responsibility, which he filled in such a manner as to win for himself the respect and admiration of General G. M. Dodge, the Chief Engineer, to whose brains and energy the incep- tion and completion of the Union Pacific are mainly due. A change in the administration of this road was brought about and Mr. Hoxie, at the earnest solicitation of Mr. "\Vm. E. Dodge and others, took charge of the International Railroad then l)uilding in Texas. He remained with this road some twelve years.
