T. H. Batte, 69, proprietor of the Washington hotel at Lander, died Saturday morning from apoplexy. Saturday evening (sic) Batte went to the barn to feed his horse. The horse, which was a vicious animal, supposedly kicked him in the breast, as he indicated that his side hurt when he returned to the office of the hotel. The men in the office noticed the man acting queer and they took him and put him to bed, summoning a doctor. From the time he entered the house he was unable to talk and never uttered a world although he could let his wants be known by gesture. There was a small bruise on the man's left side in the vicinity of his heart, but no ribs had been broken, and there were no indications of a severe kick. He was a member of the Lander Post G. A. R. He was burried (sic) Monday from Episcopal church.

T. Batte, 66 years of age, passed to the great and mystic beyond on Saturday morning and a life of gentleness and goodness ended at his home in Lander. He came to Wyoming eleven years ago from California. A widow and son are left to mourn his going.

Death of T. H. Batte
Thos. H. Batte died very suddenly at his home at the Washington House in Lander last Saturday morning at 5:30 o'clock, and was buried in the Lander cemetery on Monday afternoon. Services were conducted at the home of the deceased by Rev. John Roberts of Lander, the interment taking place under the auspices of the G. A. R., of which the deceased was a member.
On Friday evening Mr. Batte had evidently met with some minor accident while watering his horse, as his hand was bleeding from a slight wound when he entered the hotel office. He soon became unable to walk and was taken unconscious to his room where he passed away at an early hour the following morning.
Thomas H. Batte was born in Jackson, Mississippi, in 1849, being 67 years old at the time of his death. He served in the Civil War in Co. E. 136 Regiment, Indiana, Infantry, and in Co. C, 145 Indiana Regiment as private. He was less than 12 years old at the time the war began, and it is stated the he was probably the youngest soldier to see actual service in the war, as he shouldered a musket when he entered.
Mr. and Mrs. Batte, with their adopted son Gus, came here from Rawlins about fifteen years ago, and soon became known as among the leading and progressive citizens of Lander. Mr. Batte was interested in the building of the Armory, and erected several buildings at and near the corner of Washakie and Fourth streets.
The deceased was in every way a good and honorable citizen, and will be greatly missed, more especially by the laboring men, to whom he was a true friend. His creed was to live and let live, and while he might not have considered that he was his brother's keeper, he doubtless felt that he was to some extent responsible for his brother's welfare. He leaves a wife and son, who are deeply grieved at their great loss, and have the sympathy of the community in their bereavement.
