Daniel E. Weatherly of Albion, an old resident of Marshall and Story counties, died Monday evening at 6:55 o’clock at St. Thomas hospital, where he was brought Saturday to be prepared for an operation for bladder trouble, which was to have been performed this morning. Mr. Weatherly had been a sufferer for about forty-five years with Bright’s disease, contracted while in the army. Only during the past eight or ten years, however, has it been considered that the malady was to be considered as especially alarming. Mr. Weatherly was a native of Indiana, and was 65 years of age on October 23 of last year. He came west from his native state in 1855, and located on a farm near this city, where he engaged in farming until the outbreak of the war, in 1861. He enlisted in Company B, of the Second Iowa cavalry, Capt. “Pete” Hepburn’s company, and served throughout the war, altogether four years, four months and fourteen days. After the war he returned to Marshall county and was married to Miss Mary Ann Miller, a daughter of Charles Miller, of Liscomb, who survives him. Three sons and one daughter also survive the father – William A. Weatherly, living on a farm four miles north of Hubbard; J. H. Weatherly, and Charles F. Weatherly, of Albion; and Mrs. Lydia C. Chamness, of Liscomb. The late William H. Weatherly, of this city, was a brother of the deceased, and three brothers and two sisters survive him. They are A. J. Weatherly, of Indianola; Calvin and Timothy Weatherly, of Liscomb; Mrs. Paulina Waldo, of New Providence; and Mrs. Sarah Bennett, of Illinois. The funeral will be held from the Albion hotel Wednesday afternoon at 2 o’clock, Rev. Joel Myers, of LeGrand, officiating.
