DEATH OF THOMAS GOLDEN
From Wednesday's Daily
Died, May 22nd, at the home of his parents, one mile north of the city, Thomas, oldest son of Reuben and Helen Golden, Tom's death although not unexpected, comes as death does, as a shock to his many friends in Nebraska City. He was born near Rockport, May 13, 1856, his parents coming soon after to Nebraska City, where he grew to manhood. Going a few years since to South Omaha in the employ of the Cudahy Packing Co., he married there, and leaves a wife and little daughter to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father. His brothers and sisters--Mrs. Dora Lloyd, of Sioux City, Iowa, Mrs. Odie Bickel, of Kansas City, Mrs. Viola Hart, of Omaha, Frank and Wayne, of this city, and John, of Omaha--were all with stricken parents when death came. Tom's gentle, kindly nature endeared him to his large circle of friends, who join in extending their sympathy to the afflicted family. He was a member of company C and went with the boys to Pine Ridge during the Indian war of 1890-1 and proved himself to be a good soldier. He was an enthusiastic democrat and four years ago was known as "Otoe chief."
The funeral will be held tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon at 2 o'clock from the family residence
