Wade, David -
J. C. Wade of Beatrice, Neb came in this morning bringing the death of his father, David Wade, who died Monday night after a few hours illness. Mr. Wade, or Uncle Dave, as he was called by his acquaintances, was born in Ohio in June 1830, moved from there to Illinois and then to eastern Iowa. Came to Taylor county in 1875 and improved the farms now owned by Geo. Black and Greene Chaney. His wife died in 1887 and is buried in the Morgan cemetery. Since 1894 the deceased has lived in Nebraska and was making his home with his son at Beatrice at the time of his death. Mr. Wade served in the civil war, enlisting in the 152nd Ohio. Two children survive, a son and daughter, and two preceded the father in death. The body was taken out to the Morgan cemetery this forenoon and laid to rest beside the wife who passed away more than twenty years ago.
