From a newspaper clipping, date & location unknown, found in the files of his great nephew, Edwin Hunt Badger:
The Chicago Tribune contains the following account of the death of a young gentleman whose decease will be lamented by many Louisville connections and friends of his family:
The funeral services of A. Hunt Badger, youngest child of A. C. Badger, was held at his father's house, No. 2, 106 Calumet avenue, Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. The Rev. Clinton Locke, D.D., read the service of the Episcopal church, and the music was rendered by some of the surpliced choir of Grace church. There were many beautiful flowers, and all those who were present at the sad services felt deeply the sorrow of this bereavement. Young Mr. Badger was confined to the house since Monday, the 12th, but his illness did not seem important enough even to warrant the daily visits of a doctor. He seemed much better Friday, though he did not go out, and words cannot paint the consternation and grief of his family when suddenly, about 1 o'clock Sunday morning, he breathed his last. His brothers and sister, Mrs. Farlington [sic] Harvey, were all away, and reached here only yesterday. Hunt Badger was a noble-looking young man, just 17. He was born here October 14, 1868, was educated at Harvard School, and was at the time of his death a student in the Boston School of Technology. A letter from the head of that school received only a few days before his death spoke of him as one of their most brilliant and promising students. He was the idol of his parents and his friends; of winning manners and charming disposition. He was a communicant of Grace Episcopal church, and was at the communion with his mothern the first Sunday in July. His death is a bitter sorrow indeed to a family already heavily afflicted. The cause of the death was rheumatic Peritonitis.
