HONORED PIONEER GONE
Samuel Coad, One of Dallas' Oldest
Residents, Dies of Neuralgia
of the Heart.
Samuel Coad, an Oregon pioneer of
1853, and one of Dallas' oldest and
most honored citizens, died of neural
gia of the heart, Tuesday morning, at
8 :30 o'clock, aged 73 years and 1 day.
He had been in failing health for
several years. About a year ago he
suffered a severe stroke of paralysis,
and from that time on he rapidly
grew more feeble. He was able to
walk about and to attend to his busi
ness affairs, however, and his sudden
death was unexpected by his family.
Sunday night he complained of neu
ralgia in his breast and arms, and
was able to sleep but little. He arose
early Monday morning and, after eat
ing breakfast, laid down on a couch
before the fire to rest. A few moments
afterwards, he gave a sudden gasp
and expired almost instantly.
Samuel Coad was born in Pennsyl
vania, February 19, 1833. His parents
John and Jane (Jeffrey) Coad were
natives of England. Their family
consisted of 16 children, 11 of whom
were born in England and Ave in the
United States. In 1842, they moved to
Iowa, where the father died at the age
of 80 years, and the mother at the age
of 76 years.
Mr. Coad learned the carpenter
trade in Iowa, and when he was 21
years old, came to Oregon, working
his passage across the plains by driv
ing a team for John Wolverton. He
arrived in Salem in September, 1853,
and after working at his trade for a
few weeks, came to Polk county, where
he built a house for John Phillips.
After spending the wintef at the home
of Mr. Phillips, he went to Southern
Oregon and prospected for gold on
the Eogue P.iver, near Jacksonville.
He next returned to Polk county and
worked at the carpenter trade at
Lewisville, in partnership with J. J.
Williams. Later he worked for the
Government, and was employed in
building block-houses. When the
Indian War broke out in 1855, he vol
unteered his services, went to the
front, and was in the engagement at
Snake river.
In the spring of 1858, he married
Miss Henrietta Gilliam, daughter of
General Gilliam, and settled on the
Luckiamute, where he took up 140
acres of land. Here he farmed for
five or six years. He then purchased
a farm one mile east of Dallas, and
subsequently purchased an interest
in a drug business in Dallas, in part
nership with his brother-in-law, B. F.
Nichols. His wife died in 1874, and
on June 25, 1876, he was married to
Miss Annie MoNeal, a twin sister of
Mrs. J. S. Cooper, of Independence.
These sisters were the first white
children born In Dodge county,
Nebraska, and, after the death of their
parents were adopted by Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Emmons, well-known early
pioneers of Dallas.
Mr. Coad is survived by his wife;
one brother, Harry Coad, of Des
Moines, Iowa; four sons F. J. Coad
and C. G. Coad, of Dallas ; Jasper Coad
and George Coad, of Portland, and
one daughter, Mrs. John B. Stump, of
Monmouth. His daughter, Maggie,
(Mrs. T. B. Bowell) died in 1890, and
his youngest daughter, Ketta, in 1892.
He was a member of the Masonic
fraternity for 35 years. He was a
Republican in politics, but never was
a candidate for office.
The foregoing is a brief history of a
long, busy and useful life; a life that
was free from any stain or blemish,
and in which selfishness had no part.
It is the history of one who started out
to make his way in the world unaided
by wealth or position, and who fought
his way through every obstacle and
discouragement to the final goal of
success. Samuel Coad was an honor
able, upright citizen, a faithful friend,
and a good neighbor. The memory
of his clean and blameless life will
ever be fondly cherished in the hearts
of those he left behind.
Th8 funeral was conducted from the
family home yesterday afternoon by
Rev. D. Julian Becker, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, and was largely
attended. The remains were laid to
rest in the old Dallas cemetery with
Masonic honors by the officers and
members of Jennings Lodge, No. 9,
A. F. & A. M., of this city. All the
business houses of Dallas were closed
during the afternoon as a mark of
respect to the memory of the deceased,
Grandma Irvine is seriously ill at
the home of her son-in-law. Sheriff
J. T. Ford, and no hope is entertained
of her recovery.
The many friends of Mrs. Martha
CosDer will be triad to learn that she
has so far recovered from the effects
of her recent accident as to be able to
walk again.
