About Eleazer Bales

Obituary from "The Union Herald," of Union, Cass County, Nebraska, in April 1901:

Eleazer Bales, a resident of this vicinity for a number of years, died Wednesday morning, April 3, (1901) at Lincoln where he had been making his home the past few years. The remains were shipped here last Friday, arriving on the noon train, and Saturday they were interred in the Wyoming Cemetery where his wife had been laid to rest about ten years ago. Deceased had reached the age of seventy-eight years at the time of his death. Mr. Bales was well known in this part of the county, he having resided at Factoryville a number of years before Union became a town. Since the death of his wife, which occurred about ten years ago, he has lived among his relatives most of the time. He was always a kind and sociable old gentleman for whom everybody had the greatest respect, and his death was a matter of regret among his many friends in this village.
