Death Of Harry P. Maddea.

Death claimed one Of the prom
inent residents of Meridian Tues
day night, when Harry P. Mad
den departed this life at the age
| of 46 years, as the result of tuber-
cular meningitis, of which he had
been a sufferer for several months.
Last fall he was stricken with a
severe case of pneumonia. He
did not recover from this suffi-
ciently to attend to work, but his
friends advised and thought va
cation in the open air would bring
back his health. He never got
strong enough to take trip and
about a week ago his condition
became serious, and he took to. his
bed.
Harry Preston Madden was born
at Pioneerville, in the Boise Basin,
in 1864. He was said to have been
the oldest living native child of
this part of the state, one other
child born in the Basin a few
months earlier, having died several
months ago. His father, Charles
f. Madden, was a 49er, coming
with the gold seekers to the west
at that time, He moved when
Harry was two years old to farm
in the Boise valley, near Caldwell,
and this old homestead has been
the abiding place of the father and
family since. The mother died
last fall, which was the first break
in the family circle, which in
cluded six girls and four boys,
Harry being the oldest of the 10
children.
Harry Madden spent his early life
on the range, of which he was very
fond. He would probably have
followed this life, but when Is a
horse fell on his leg, which rem
dered him d cripple. He clerked
for several years for Monte Gwinn
in stores at Middleton and Cald.
well, and four years ago moved to
Meridian and has since conducted
a harness shop here. Last year he
was elected one of the village
trustees, and, even though i'll, he
has taken a deep interest in the
plans for the water works system.
He was we'll thought of by all, and
had many friends in this vicinity.
His brothers and sisters, con-
sisting of Merritt K. Madden, of
Alpha, Idaho; DIR. Charles P.
Madden, of Caldwell; Roscoe S.
Madden, of Caldwell; Miss Ada f.
Madden, teacher at Butte, Mon
tana; Mrs. G. P. Hartley, of EN-
NETT; Mrs. j. J. Walling, of
Nampa; Mrs. G. G. Deeter, of
Modesto, Calf; and Amy and I'm
ogene Madden, of Caldwell, have
been notified of their brothers
death.
The funeral will be held at Me-
ridian Saturday at Up. m, Rev.

The body will be taken on the af-
ternoon train to Caldwell for
burial, and the friends who so de-
sire may meet the train there and
accompany the remains to the
cemetery.
