We notice with painful sadness the
recent death of Col. ID. f. Wade, at his
home near Nashville. At the beginning
of the late war between the adhering
and seeding States, Col. Wade was
living on beautiful farm near Mt
Pleasant. He was elected Capt. of the
Bigby Greys, a company raised and
equipped for the Confederate service at
Mt. Pleasant before the State of Tonnes
see seeded and which afterwsrde be-
came part of the famous 3rd Tennes-
see Regiment, Commanded by Gen.
John G. Brown. Col. Wade was dang
erously wounded at the battle of Fit.
Donelson, while leading his company
in Floyd's attack on Grants right, and
was afterwards sev4rely woultded by
bush whackers in the mountains of
Alabama. Al the close of the war Col.
Wade married Miss Margaret, daughter
of Gen. G. j. Pillow, and lived in David
son county until his death.
