The funeral of Daniel C. Stover, of Ladoga, will occur on Saturday morning at an hour to be determined later.
In the sketch of Mr. Stover’s life published elsewhere in The Journal omission was made of his former prominence in Indiana politics. In his earlier years he was a leading Democrat of Indiana and was for some time state bank examiner, accumulating a large fortune, most of which was later lost in New York and in the west. He was one of the parties to whom the Union Pacific land grant was made, but being unable to meet some of the obligations lost his share of the profits.
