The sad tragedy which took from our midst one well known friend, Clyde Cady, has caused a
deep gloom throughout this vicinity. Everyone who knew him will miss his smiling
countenance and congenial disposition. His family has the sympathy of the entire
community.

Sad Death of Clyde Cady
It becomes our sad duty this week to chronicle the untimely taking away of one of
Gascoyne's most highly respected citizens, Allan Clyde Cady.
Having taken his wife to the home of her parents near Cadyville, S. D., last Friday, he
was returning to Gascoyne when his auto became stuck in the mud. Mr. Cady then went back
to the Cavin home for a horse with which to extricate the auto. In passing out of the
yard, thru a gateway, the horse was seen to plunge and fall, throwing Mr. Cady violently
to the ground and upon investigation he was found to be unconscious, remaining in that
condition until about 3 o'clock Saturday morning when he passed away. Altho three
doctors were called and an operation was performed upon the skull, their efforts were of
no avail.
It was believed that the horse caught his foot in the gate, which caused him to fall, thus
throwing his rider.
The body was brought up to Gascoyne Saturday to the saddened home, which he had left a few
days previous so full of life and with all the bright prospects that a young married
couple, with a cozy new home, usually have.
Allan Clyde Cady was born at Maple Ridge, Minnesota, on Sept. 22, 1884, being nearly 31
years and 6 months old at the time of his death. He was married the 30th of November,
1915, to Miss Sarah Cavin, of Cadyville, S. D. who with his parents, Mrs. and Mrs. A. D.
Cady, Sr. two brothers, Arthur and Leroy of this place and other relatives, survive to
mourn his loss.
The funeral was held at Scranton on Tuesday a.m., at 10 o'clock and was conducted by
Rev. Father Belch of Bowman. Remains were interred in the Catholic Cemetery at Scranton.
Short services were held at the home here at 8 o'clock. A choir of five voices
rendered the music, namely, Mr. and Mrs. Hert Perison, Mrs. L. V. Skoglund, Jessie Wescher
and Link Fischbein. The Bazette extends its heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved family
and relatives.

In their write up of the recent death of Clyde Cady, the Bowman County Pioneer, published
at Bowman, has the following to say of Gascoyne:
Gascoyne is one of the liveliest and most enterprising villages in the country, and this
man who has been so suddenly taken away had a large part in making it so. He will be
greatly missed in that part of the county.
