Butte Semi-Weekly (MT), 5 June 1886
The dead body of John Madden, a lawyer, was found yesterday morning in his rooms in Dublin Gulch. Mr. Madden had been a resident of Butte for about two years, and at one time held quite a prominent position at our bar. Last fall he was a candidate for Probate Judge upon the Republican ticket of Silver Bow County. The deceased was admitted to the bar in Chicago, where he read law in the office of Sidney Thomas, Esq., a leading lawyer of that city. He was a man of excellent attainments and extensive reading and at once took a prominent position at the bar and a strong place in society.
He served for four years in an Illinois regiment and was a moving spirit in Grand Army matters.
He was a man of kindly impulses and did many acts of mercy and charity, even in his years of poverty. He was much loved by those who knew him best and his comrades, who knew and appreciated his many good qualities of head and heart, will today lay him to rest with all the honors due a good and faithful soldier, tried by fire and unflinching, in the Butte cemetery. May his spirit be at rest.
