"Death of Rev. M.S. Olds, Rector of Christ Church, Navy Yard
"We regret to announce that the Rev. Dr. Olds, Rector of Christ Church, died at 1 o'clock this morning after a lingering illness. Dr. Olds was in perfect health, apparently, until six months ago, when a cancer appeared on his right cheek, which developed itself so quickly as to cause the most serious apprehensions to his family and friends. He consulted eminent physicians of this city and Baltimore also, whose skill was of no avail, and, as a last resort, he went to the springs at St. Albans, Vermont, the waters of which are said to be a special curative of cancer. He remained there some time without any perceptible improvement, and came home to die. The members of his congregation have been unceasing in their efforts to alleviate the terrible agonies of pain, which he endured with the most Christian fortitude. For twelve days prior to his death he has been unable to take nourishment of any kind, on account of a cancer which appeared on his tongue two months since, and developed itself as rapidly as the one on his face.
"Dr. Olds was forty years of age, and was a son of Judge Olds, of Ohio. Early in life he moved from Ohio to Wisconsin, where he studied and practiced law. He served gallantly as a Lieutenant during the Mexican War, and [at?] its close returned to Wisconsin. A few years after he studied for the Ministry, and in 1855 was ordained by Bishop Whipple, with whom he was always a great favorite. He was pastor of a Church in Wisconsin for some years, and afterwards in Trenton, New Jersey, from whence he received a call in 1864 to Christ Church in this city, which he accepted, and has since acted as its Rector until prostrated by sickness. He leaves a wife, who is a daughter of Nathan Sargent, Esq., of this city, and five children. The funeral services will take place tomorrow at 12 m., at Christ Church, when the Holy Communion will also be celebrated. The Evening Star, September 20, 1868
