Funeral Service Thursday, Nov 3, at 2 p.m., at the residence of the Hon. Charles B. Farwell, 98 Pearson st. Source: Partner Information Historical Newspapers, Birth, Marriage, & Death Announcements, 1851-2003 Record for Historical Newspapers, Chicago, IL, Nov 1, 1892 ----- Wayne Bogue Chatfield. For twenty-three years the house of Street & Chatfield, and Street, Chatfield & Co., organized in 1869, by Charles A. Street and Wayne B. Chatfield, and later, when by the addition of Frederic A. Keep, it became Street, Chatfield & Keep, was one of the prominent and most highly respected among the many lumber houses of Chicago. Wayne B. Chatfield was the son of a farmer, Horace Chatfield, who came West from New Hartford, Oneida County, N.Y., to which place Oliver Chatfield, the grandfather of Wayne B., emigrated many years before from the neighborhood of New Haven, Conn. The wife of Horace and mother of Wayne B. was Catherine Bogue, a native of western New York. Wayne B. was born in 1840, at Polo, Ill., whither his parents had removed, and his earlier days were divided between the common schools of the neighborhood and the work required of him on his father's farm, and it is greatly to his credit that from these humble opportunities he acquired fluent speech in three foreign languages, which as an extensive traveler in foreign lands, proved of the greatest advantage to him in his riper years. His first business venture was as station master for the Illinois Central Railroad at their station at La Salle, Ill., where he remained for several years. In 1865 he came to Chicago, and remained until 1869 in the employ of his brother-in-law, H.H. Taylor, dealer in agricultural implements. In the spring of 1869 he became associated with Charles A. Street in the firm of Street & Chatfield. At the incorporation in 1888 of the Interior Lumber Company and erection of extensive mills at Interior, Mich., Mr. Chatfield was elected secretary, an office which he continued to hold until his death, although for several years past he had given but little attention to active business affairs, being accounted a capitalist, from bequests which had reached him from the decease of wealthy relatives, as well as from the profits of his business ventures. Mr. Chatfield was never a robust man, while always enjoying fair health, and having the means as well as the disposition to travel, had made himself acquainted with the peoples and customs of foreign lands, in which his linguistic acquirements stood him well in hand and added greatly to his enjoyment. He was a prominent club and society man, being a member of the Union, Chicago, Calumet and other leading clubs of this city, and as well of clubs in Eastern cities. He was a man of liberal tendencies and broad ideas, and was held in the highest esteem by all with whom he came in contact. Mr. Chatfield's death at Fort Smith, Ark., October 31, 1892, was sudden and unexpected, but few of his friends being aware that he had left the city but a few days before with an apparently slight cold, and had gone to Fort Smith on business, where he was taken with pneumonia which speedily came to a fatal termination. Mr. Chatfield was the last of his family in the male line of descent, and in order to perpetuate the family name requested his nephew Hobart C. Taylor, to assume and adopt the name of Hobart C. Chatfield-Taylor, and by recent decree of the courts, the request has been complied with, and the name has become a legal designation. Mr. Chatfield left a handsome fortune, the bulk of which was bestowed upon his nephew, who is a son of the late Henry H. Taylor, a leading merchant of the city, and son-in-law of Ex-Senator C.B. Farwell, of this city, and a young man of considerable note in the social and literary world.
