Wing, of Jefferson township .... died early Thursday morning .... The Holton Weekly Recorder, October 18, 1894. The subject of this memoir was born in Montgomery county, New York, September 3, 1836, and died October 11, 1894, aged 58 years, 1 month and 8 days. The cause of the death was a fall received while working on a barn on the farm of Mr. John Bernard, falling a distance of over thirty feet .... He grew to manhood in his native town, and on arriving at his majority, he, like many other pushing, energetic boys, left home and friends and set out for what was called in those days, the distant west. In the spring of 1858 he arrived in Henry county, Ill., and began ... to make for himself a future house. In the spring of 1861 .... He enlisted in Co. D, 17th Illinois Infantry, and hastened to the front to do or die, if need be, that his country might be saved. Before his time expired he enlisted for three years, or during the war. In the memorable battle of Donaldson, on account of exposure and injuries received, he was sent to the hospital, unfit for service. At the battle of Shiloh, contrary to the orders of his captain, he followed his regiment into the fight, but owing to his weak condition, he was found after the battle, by himself in a tent, more dead than alive, was taken back to the hospital and was nursed back to life again by the faithful nurse of the regiment, Mrs. Cunningham .., Not being able to do active service, in October following, against his own wish, was given his discharge, and lived many years to suffer from the effects of his service ... On the 16th day of June, 1864, he was united in marriage to Anna Jackson, of Cambridge, Ill. Seven children were born to them, the oldest being taken by death when but a few months old. In 1867 they removed to Iowa and settled near Prairie City, Jasper county. They remained there a number of years. Nine years ago this fall they came to this place and have remained here ever since. He leaves behind the wife ... the children .... The Holton Weekly Recorder, October 25, 1894.
