History

Hibbing was founded in 1893 by the town's namesake, Frank Hibbing. Hibbing was born in Hannover, Germany on December 1, 1856 and was christened Frans Dietrich von Ahlen. His mother died when he was still in infancy and it was her name, Hibbing, which he assumed when he set out to seek his fortune in the New World. He first settled in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin where he worked on a farm and in a shingle mill. Injured in a mill accident, he considered becoming a lawyer, but after deciding he was not familiar enough with the English language to make a legal career possible, he turned to timber cruising.

The Noise Of Time

by: Hyponic

The wave of time
Flooding in the space
The noise of time is mourning
The noise growling in silence in creatures mind
For the vast ages
Wisdom fails to dust a trip
Chasing by time beneath the experience
With the evil thoughts
Until the failure of the burning sun
Refreshing the endless faith
In the space of fury
Expanding the hatred in mind
