Of Ed. Wainey, Tuesday morning, three
miles below Dallas. Commodore David
son ordered, by telegram, a metallic case
to be sent up from Keokuk On the packet
Mitchell. The deceased's sister, Mrs,
Watkins, of st. Louis, left on the Golden
Eagle, Tuesday. to take part 10 the sad
obsequies at Dallas.
The flags OF all steamers of the Keokuk-
Northern Line have been lowered to half
mast in respect to the memory of the
steward, Wainey, who lost his life on the
Red Wing Wainey was a native of
Alsace, France, and was about As years of
age, having lived in the United States
from his early childhood. He had spent
about thirty years of his life on the river,
first as cabin boy, then as steward. Geo.
20. Wolf, of So. Louis, had him on the
Wenona as a cabin-b boy in 1854, and speaks
Of him feelingly as an industrious boy.
Mr.. Lampe, an old boatmau, speaks of
him in similar terms of praise. According
to Mr.. Lampe, Wainey was steward of the
Golden Era, Capt. Bersie, in the st. Louis
and Galena trade in 1852. He owned the
bar of the same boat, and acquired almost
a competency, which he sunk 10 the lead
mines Of Galena. 1t was his regular habit,
on the close of navigation every winter, to
repair to Galena and work industriously in
lead mining, following that occupation
until the ice in the river broke up and be
was called to duty on board, where be was
beloved by all his associates. He married
in Galena womPn who is noted among
acquaintance as most DEVOTED and loving
wife, and his fearful and unexpected death
must have been worse than death to her
Mr.. Wainey was also engaged in the Lower
river trade as steward of the Clara Dolsen
Richmond, and other large and elegan
steamers. The death of that exemplary
man has cast a gloom over steamboat
circles.
