• No Name, 1909. ⁷⁸²⁷ 1909 PFP obituary read: "Evansville, April 14, 1909. The death
of James D. Mabie, who passed away at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Levi Sperry, last evening at six o'clock, came as a great
shock to his relatives and many friends. His death was due to
heart failure and he had been ill only a few hours. He was
enjoying his usual good health and walked downtown in the
forenoon when he was taken with a severe pain in his side. He
summoned a carriage and was taken to his home, where he was
tenderly nursed and soon was much easier and apparently better.
Shortly before six o'clock his daughter left him and went to
the kitchen to prepare his supper and had been gone only a few
moments when she heard a moan and found her father dying. Mr.
Mabie would have been eighty-two years old had he lived until
the fifth of next month. He was born in Schoharie County, New
York. In 1849 he was married to Miss Mary Elizabeth Sullivan
and in 1857 they came West and settled in Wisconsin near
Evansville. Eight children came to gladden their home, but its
happiness was turned to mourning by the death of the wife and
mother in 1878. A few years later he married his second wife,
Elizabeth Adair, and soon thereafter went to South Dakota where
he lived until five years ago when his wife died and he
returned to make his home with his daughter, Mrs. Sperry. He
was a member of the Methodist Church and his absence will be
greatly missed for he was always faithful in attendance at
service. He leaves to mourn his loss; six children, Oscar of
Janesville, William of Evansville, Dora, Magnolia, Mrs. Levi
Sperry, Evansville, Mrs. Nellie Butler, Oakland, California and
Mrs. Nettie Wilcox, Janesville. Funeral services will be held
Friday afternoon at two o'clock at the M.E. church and will be
conducted under the auspices of the Masonic Order."
