Died at Tangier, Ind., Nov. 24th, 1890, Capt. Frank W. Baird, Co. H, 7th Indiana Cavalry. He like many other fellow soldiers came out of the struggle with impaired health. He came among us two years ago, a stranger; but in consequence of his consistent living and his social disposition, he gathered around himself many friends, amongst whom was our esteemed lady friend, Miss Eunice Welch, who subsequently became his wife. When informed by his physician that he could not live, he remarked, Through God's mercy I am ready; am at peace with all men.' Thus passing to the other the 'other shore' from which the bugle's wild and warlike blast shall muster him no more. The bereaved wife has the sympathy of all our good citizens. - Rockville Republican, December 8, 1890.
Baird enlisted on September 5, 1863 joining Co H 7th Indiana Cavalry. He was discharged March 25, 1864.
