We are very much grieved this week at the announcement of the death of Wade H. Roberts, of Olathe, which  occurred at Greenville, Texas, where he has been for several months tor the benefit of his health. He had been sick at his home in Olathe nearly all winter, but had greatly improved and it was thought his trip south might prove further beneficial. Wade was operator at the city telegraph office in Paola for a couple of years and had a great many friends, to whom his death causes profound sorrow. The remains were brought to Olathe and interred there.  - Paola Rep.
