[edit] Death Date Wrong?

It appears that Cole's death date is wrongly reported here, and in many other places on the Internet. I looked up his death certificate, and it read:

Alphaeus COLE

     Birth Date:  12 Jul 1876 
     Death Date:  2 May 1989 
     Social Security Number:   130-05-3991 
     State or Territory Where Number Was Issued:   New York

  Death Residence Localities
     ZIP Code:  10011

[The information on this is from the United States government records and is in the public domain.]

Other sources on the Internet seem to agree with an 1988 death date. As a result, I did not change the Wikipedia page, and await confirmation.
