DEATH OF nov. JOHN WALES,

The Hon. John Wales died at his resi-
dence, in this city, on Thursday night
last, about half-past ten o'clock. Mr..
Wales was born in New Haven, Conuecti-
cut, on the 3lst of July, 1888, and was
consequently in the Slst year Of his age.
He was a son of the Rev Samuel Wales,
Professor in the Yale Theological
School. The deceased graduated at Yale
College in 1901 with much honor and
soon after commenced the practice OF
law at Hartford Connecticut, where
he remained until 1912, when he re-
moved to Baltimore, but finally settled
in this city in 1915, where he resided
until his death. For many years he prac
ticed law at the bar of the Courts of this
State with much success, and occupied
position in the front rank in his profession.
On the induction of Major Thomas Stock
ton into the Gubcrnatorial chair in 1885,
he was selected as Secretary of State,
which position he filled with distinguished
ability until the death Of Governor Stock
ton. In ls49, Mr. Clayton, having been
appointed by President Taylor as Secre-
tary of State, resigned his seat in the
United States Senate and Mr.. Wales was
elected by the Legislature to fill the va
cancy. Mr.. Wales was identified with the
Wing party during its existence, and was
a firm and ardent friend and conidant
of the lamented Clayton On the forma-
ton of the Republican party he was one
of the first in Delaware to connect him
self with that organization, and labored
jealousy in the great cause OF human
freedom. Although an ardent politician
he was not an Office seeker, and conse-
quently filled but few official public posi-
tons. He diligently labored for his party
from pure and patriotic motives, believing
that the establishment of its principles
would be for the best interests of the
country.
He was kind, atfable and obliging in
his disposition, and highly respected by all
who knew him, His life was extended
far beyond the time allotted to man,
during which lie uniformly enjoyed ex-
celent health. On the 18th of Novem.
Der last he attended the grand demon
stration of the friends of the Union at
Middletown, and contracted heavy cold
which terminated fatally on Thursday
night last. His death will be sincerely
regretted by oil who knew him. Our Stat,
has lost one who was ever ready to defend
and uphold her interests, and the Union
cause ons of its most Jealous advocates.
His funeral took place yesterday after
noon from his late residence in this city.
The large concourse of sorrowing friends
that followed his mortal remains TO the
tomb, attest the esteem in which he was
held while living.
