LAID TO REST

On Tuesday morning, Jan. 19, 1892, at six o'clock a.m., at his residence in
the town of Brooklyn, Edward T. Wing passed peacefully to that "sleep that
knows no waking." He was taken with the LaGrippe which terminated in Acute
Congestion of the Lungs. The deceased was sick only three days, his death
was a great surprise to his many friends and neighbors, for many of them
had not even heard of his illness.

Mr. Wing was born in Addison County, Vermont, Nov. 13, 1822, he came to the
state of Wisconsin, in 1864, he first stopped in Evansville where he worked
at his trade (Carpenter) building the Congregational church. In January
1855, he became a resident of Brooklyn, Green County, where he had
previously purchased a farm where he has since resided. Mr. Wing was a hard
working unassuming gentleman, a good law abiding citizen, a true husband
and father.

Besides a widow he leaves three children, one son, Allen J., of Britt,
Iowa, wife of Willis Searles, of Evansville, and Miss Ada, who resides with
her mother.
