So the Ruby valley loses one of its famous pioneers and a citizen of high honor, who came across the plains here 57 years ago. Samuel Paige was born 82 years ago, on June 8, 1841 at Thornton, New Hampshire, and he lived at that place until he was 21 years old. The civil war called him into service and he went in 1862, down the Atlantic coast from New York to (where) he stationed on the Mississippi river, keeping ports open for union ships and soldiers. At the close of the war Mr. Paige joined a party that was making ready to bring two quartz mills to Montana. The journey was made with two trains, each having 20 teams of four yoke of oxen coming by way of the Bozeman trail and reaching Alder gulch in the fall of 1866. After working for two years in the vicinity of Virginia City, Mr. Paige moved into the Ruby valley to establish a home in 1868. He has been engaged in farming and stock raising and has been identified with the development of western Montana, always for community welfare. He was a democrat in politics and served as county commissioner in the early eighties. At the time of his death he was commander of Frank Blair Post, G. A. R., at Virginia City, and a member of the I. O. O. F. Mr. Paige was married in 1869 to Minerva Taylor, who died in 1904. Of his four daughters and seven sons, three are dead. Those living are Ida of Salt Lake City, Alice of Twin Bridges, Bert of Twin Bridges, Oscar of Baker City, Ore., Wilbur, Warner, Charles and Henry of Ruby. His sisters surviving are Mrs. Arvilla J. Weeks of Laconia, N. H., Mrs. Azelia Bryant of Wolfsboro, N. H., and Mrs. Alice Eastman of Ruby, Mont. A number of grand children and great grandchildren also survive. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and the interment was in Taylor cemetery. Rev. Wiley Mountjoy conducted the service at the family residence and the American Legion of the valley paid military honors at the grave.
