Daniel Hoover Dead
On Monday morning Edgar Hoover received by telegram the sad intelligence of the death of his father, Daniel Hoover, in Lee County, Iowa, and left on the morning train for that point.
Daniel Hoover was one of Taylor County's oldest and most highly respected settlers, having owned considerable property near Bedford. The old timers will all remember Uncle Daniel, and will hear of his death with regret. He was 75 years, 5 months and 29 days old at the time of his death. He had lived in this county about thirty years, and moved to California where he had resided for a number of years, also made his home in Arizona for a period of time, where his first wife died about eight years ago. After his second marriage Mr. Hoover moved to Lee County, Iowa, where he died. His death came suddenly and unexpectedly. The funeral was held at 11 o'clock, a.m., Tuesday, March 26, at Warren, Iowa.

Another Old Settler Gone
Warren, Iowa, March 26. Death has this time called our beloved friend and neighbor, Daniel Hoover, to the beyond from whence no traveler ever returns. Deceased was born in Kentucky in September 1825; moved to Lee county, Iowa, with his mother, two brothers and one sister in 1840. In 1850 he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Jane Henkle. Of this union ten children were born, six sons and four daughters. Three have preceded him to the other shore. Those living are: Edgar and Josiah of Taylor county, Iowa, Edwin, Clinton, Mrs. Mary Flaies and Miss Nora, all of Santa Barbara, California and Charles of Arizona, who is superintendent of a gold mine. Edwin and Edgar are twin brothers, the latter being a teacher in the college at Santa Barbara. Clinton is superintendent of a vineyard. The deceased moved to Taylor county in 1850. Here the writer cannot give the correct dates. About 1875 he moved to California and about 1880 he returned to Taylor county. About 1890 he made another move, this time going to Arizona. While there his wife died. In 1895 he came back to Lee county and on April 1, 1896, was united in marriage to Mrs. Anna Wauner, nee Miss Anna Henkle.
Mr. Hoover was at the writer's house Saturday afternoon apparently all right. Shortly after reaching his home he complained some; at 4 o'clock he waked up vomiting and at 5 o'clock he died.
The funeral occurred Tuesday, March 26, at 11 o'clock, Rev. Dimmitt officiating. Josiah and Edgar of Taylor county were present to take the last earthly view of their father.
