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."
