The TALES you probably never heard about

THADDEUS W. TATE

[Welland Tribune, 7 May 1897]

T.W. Tate, son-in-law of Jacob Crow of this town, died in Embro, Ont., on Wednesday morning, of appendicitis. Mr. Tate attended church on Sunday morning, was taken ill during the afternoon and on Monday grew rapidly worse. On Tuesday an operation was performed, from which the patient rallied long enough to recognize his family and friends, and then slowly sank. Death followed at 8.45 on Wednesday morning. May 5th. Mr. Tate was a prominent merchant of Embro and one of the most respected residents of the county of Oxford. He leaves a widow, daughter of Jacob Crow of Welland, and sister of Mrs. R. Cooper, Mrs. A.L. Pattison, and John William and Arthur Crow. Deceased also leaves one daughter about sixteen years of age. The sudden taking way of a loving husband and father is a sad bereavement to the sorrowing widow and daughter. Mr. and Mrs. R. Cooper, J.H. Crow, W.H. Crow and A. Crow will attend the funeral at Embro today.
