The Liberty Tribune, Apr 26, 1861
Liberty Tribune, Apr 26, 1861:
Death of Samuel Hadley. Esq.
It becomes our painful duty to announce the death of Samuel Hadley, Esq., on 
the 22nd instant, which took place at his residence near this city.  It may be 
said of him, of a truth, that he was a good man; gentle, kind, and 
accommodating in his disposition, he had a host of friends among men of all 
parties.  In the exercise of a Constitutional right, we have often opposed his 
election to the office of Sheriffalty of Clay county – to which he was often 
elected, over some of the most popular men in the county; greatly outrunning 
his party strength – but we never done so as an enemy; but on the contrary, 
with painful reluctance.  Mr. Hadley, was sixty-five years of age, and was born 
near Lexington, Ky., and was raised in Todd county, Ky., and removed to this 
county in 1828.  Alll over upper Missouri, where he was well known, his death 
will bring a pang to many a heart, and be deeply regretted.  He has left this 
world in a time of great trouble to our country, but we trust has found 
that “rest” which will be never ending.  Peace to his ashes.
