Mabee,

Dr. J. E.

 

MABEE - Entered into rest at his home, Odessa, on Tuesday, August 20, 1940, Dr. J. E. Mabee, dear husband of B. Decker, formerly of Whitby, and father of Dr. H. C. Mabee, Kingston, Ontario.  Funeral will take place from his late residence on Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock (Daylight Saving time).  Friends and acquaintances respectfully invited to attend.  Interment at Cataraqui Cemetery.  Masonic service..

 

Dr. J. E. Mabee Medical man For 53 Years -

Funeral services for the late Dr. J. E. Mabee, who died at his home in Odessa late Tuesday morning, will be conducted at his residence Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock (D.S.T.) Interment will be at Cataraqui Cemetery and a Masonic service will be held.

The death of Dr. Mabee removed the oldest practising physician in this part of the country for it was for 53 years that Dr. Mabee practised his profession, always at Odessa.  For 52 years of that he was medical health officer of the Township of Ernestown, a record believed to be unequalled anywhere in Canada.  The late Dr. Mabee was born May 22, 1851, in the Township of Louth, near Beamsville, the son of Thomas Mabee of Prince Edward County and Amanda Tinlin of Beamsville.  The family moved to Odessa when Dr. Mabee was six years old and outside of the time he was in attendance at Queen’s University, he had resided in Odessa.  He was educated there, going on to Queen’s University in the medical school from which he graduated in 1887.  He went right back to Odessa, bought out the practice of Dr. Thomas Beeman, started in to practise medicine and continued there ever since.  Dr. Mabee was known all over the countryside.  He was a friend and counsellor to the great majority of the people of the community and not only attended to their medical and surgical needs but shared their troubles and joys.  He was the typical family doctor, confidant and thoroughly interested friend, all rolled into one.  Despite his long years of practice, he had not actually retired from the profession, though of late he had not done extensive work.

He was ill in bed only a little more than a week.  He had been in Bloomfield on August 9 to see his first cousin, P.A. Mabee, whose wife died last May.  They had been married 77 years.

Honored Doctor -

Dr. Mabee was a member of the Frontenac Medical Association and the Lennox and Addington Medical Association.  He was a life member of the Ontario Medical Association.  Three years ago he was honoured by the Frontenac Medical Society when he had completed fifty years of medical practice.  A dinner was tendered in his honor at the Kingston General Hospital and he was presented with a gold-headed cane and the warm congratulations of members of the medical profession.  He was a member of the Independent Order of Foresters, Chosen Friends, Independent Order of Odd Fellows and Prince Arthur Masonic Lodge, all of Odessa.  He was also a member of the Eastern Star.  During the first World War he took a keen interest in the work of the Red Cross and played a leading part of the activities of the Red Cross in the Odessa district.

The deceased doctor had also taken an active interest in the militia in his younger days and succeeded Lt.-Col. Cox of Enterprise as commanding officer of the old 47th Regiment, which had a company in Odessa.  He was a member of the United Church.

He married twice.  His first wife was Frances Storms of Odessa, who died in 1888.  To this union were born one son, Dr. Horace Mabee, William Street, Kingston, and one daughter, Grace, who died at the age of 16 years.  Dr. Mabee married Beatrice Decker of Whitby in 1903, who survives.

In Memoriam - The Late Miss Macdonald

Miss Macdonald, only sister of Sir John A. Macdonald, died at three o'clock on Sunday morning. About two weeks ago her illness assumed a serious aspect, and since that time she has been gradually growing worse. Her disease was the result of a heart affection from which she suffered for many years. The deceased was seventy years of age, several years younger than the premier. She was a resident of Kingston for nearly half a century, residing with her brother while he lived here, and for the past twenty years with her brother-in-law, Rev. Dr. Williamson, of Queen's University. She was mild and gentle in character and disposition, and beloved by all with whom she came in contact. She was a woman of much ability, well read and brilliant in conversation. She bubbled over with humour and wit, even eclipsing her eminent brother in rapartee. She was of generous and noble impulse, and quite religious. For years she was connected with St. Andrew's church. Although an invalid for the best part of her life, she ever maintained patience and resignation. Sir John arrived here yesterday, but his sister had departed this life. Mr. McIntrye broke the news to him. The funeral occurs tomorrow morning.

Death of Mrs. Macdonald

The death of Mrs. Macdonald, relict of the late Hugh Macdonald, Esq., and mother of the Hon. John a. Macdonald, Ex-Attorney General, will be found noted in the appropriate place. This lady, by her relationship to the ex-Premier, was known all over the Province, and her death will be heard with regret by hundreds who have met her in social intercourse and partaken of her hospitality. Thousands also of Mr. Macdonald's personal friends will condole with him in his affliction at the loss of an estimable parent. The deceased lady died at the advanced age of 85 years, and was perhaps the last connecting link of an old circle of Kingston society. Her demise has deprived the city of one more of its oldest inhabitants - those who remember Kingston in the early days of its settlement, and are intimately acquainted with each subsequent development of its growth into political and commercial importance.

SLEPT PEACEFULLY AWAY -

Death of Miss Mary Mackenzie, in Rochester -

In the midst of her studies, by which she was preparing herself to become a medical missionary, Miss Mary Mackenzie, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Mackenzie, passed peacefully to rest, at the Medical Missions Training School, Rochester, N.Y., on Friday morning.  She had been ill but a few hours, with that treacherous disease, pneumonia, when she said to those with her that she thought she would go to sleep.  Thus easily she slipped from the lower to the higher training school.  Miss Mackenzie, who was the beloved elder sister of a family of nine children, graduated from Toronto General Hospital training school for nurses, a short time ago and was but twenty-five years old.  Four brothers and four sisters survive, Misses Elsie, Janet, Mima and Maggie at home;  Allan, New York;  William, St. Louis;  Duncan and Kenneth, of this city.  William Young, an uncle, and Allan Mackenzie brought the body from Rochester to this city for burial;  the funeral will take place to-morrow.  Miss Mackenzie was a member of Chalmers church and many friends will grieve deeply at her death.

JAMES MADDEN -  Was born in Belleville in the year 1852, and died at Chatham, Ont., Dec. 19th, 1885.  He was a brother of the late Rev. C.C. Madden, of the London Conference Methodist Church of Canada.  Bro. Madden was blessed with truly Christian parents, and during his childhood was surrounded by holy influences;  at the age of nine years he was converted at a camp meeting, held at Kingston, and from that time rejoiced in the evidence of his acceptance through the Precious Blood.  The writer became acquainted with Bro. Madden while stationed at Chatham, where he was attending high school  His thought and aspirations then were toward the Methodist ministry.  As a student he was earnest, and his Christian example produced good effect.  Through change of circumstances he was unable to pursue his studies.  He removed to the North - West, and engaged in evangelistic work.   On his return to Chatham he found the Salvation Army at work, he saw then a field for service, and joined the ranks;   his promotion was rapid.  He became staff-captain and divisional officer of the Kingston Division.  His subsequent career, including his persecution and imprisonment at Montreal, has been freely noticed in the Army papers.  Bro. Madden fell a prey to consumption and his death no doubt was hastened by hard work and exposure.  He was sick for nearly twelve months.  He bore his illness with marked patience and resignation. On being asked if Jesus was precious he replied “His presence fills the room.”  His end was peace;  without a sigh or groan he fell asleep in Jesus.  “He was a good man and full of the Holy Ghost.”  [signed] G.R.T.

Madole,

Marshall Seymour

 

After an illness of several months, Mr. M. S. Madole passed away on Wednesday morning, Sept 18th.  The end was not unexpected as he had been suffering from Artero Sclerosis for some time.  Mr. Madole had entered probably more fully into the business, political, municipal and church life of the community than any other man in Napanee.  He served successfully as Councillor and Mayor at the council board, and was at his death a member of the Board of Education.  Twice he successfully contested Lennox in the Liberal Interest, his opponent in both instances being the late T. G. Carscallen.  For many years Mr. Madole had been one of the strongest and most faithful members of Grace Methodist Church and Sunday School and an ardent supporter of every movement to increase the spiritual and material welfare of the church.  In business Mr. Madole was known all over the county and highly respected.  Among other hardware dealers he was also honoured by being elected president of their association. Besides his widow he leaves three daughters, Mrs. Reddick, Napanee, Mrs., Allen, New York, and Miss Maisie at home.  The funeral took place from his late residence Friday afternoon.  Private service was held at the home and a public service in Grace Church. –Napanee Express.

Mrs. Annabella (Anderson) Magee

Mrs. Robert Magee, daughter of James Anderson and Ann Jane McCornock was born at Fermanagh, Ireland January 2 1829 and died at the Union appointment on the Adolphustown circuit, December 18, 1887. At the age of nineteen, she was married to Robert Magee of Donegal, Ireland, July 13, 1848. They came to this country in the year 1869 and settled first in Prince Edward County, on the Bay of Quinte, where they remained one year. Then they moved to Adolphustown and in 1872 settled in the old farm at Hay Bay where after years of labor she entered into rest.

Mrs. Magee was the mother of eight children, seven sons and one daughter. One son, Samuel, died in the triumphs of the Christian faith a few years ago. I have seen many suffer much, but few so patiently, so fully resigned, calm and peaceful, waiting the call of the Master, as did Sister Magee. She spoke frequently and freely of the approaching hour. She knew it was coming and knew it was near, and yet never lost confidence in God or spoke of it without hope. She was always ready to converse on the subject of religion. Her home was a cheerful place of rest for the Methodist ministers in this country, and also in Ireland. Their house was open for services, and I have heard her tell of many seasons of refreshing she had in the meetings held in their own house in the old country.

Mrs. Magee was a Methodist of the fourth generation. It is said by one who has the record of their ancestors many years back that not one was addicted to drinking habits or using tobacco in any form, and all have been either members of or adherents to the Methodist Church.

Sister Magee lived well, and died as she lived. According to her request, her six sons bore her remains to the gravel. As her pastor was unable to attend her funeral, her former pastor, Rev. W.R. Young, preached a very comforting sermon from Matt. XXVIII 6: Come, see the place where the Lord lay.  (Rev. M.J. Bates)

Mrs. Magee was laid to rest in the U.E.L. Methodist Church Cemetery in Adolphustown. Since 925, this church has been known as the U.E.L. Memorial United Church of Adolphustown.

Bryce Magee Drowned at The Pines

A sad accident happened on Hay Bay, near the home of Mr. Andrew Magee, on Thursday afternoon, Jan. 7th, 1909, which resulted in the death by drowning, of Bryce Alton Magee, the eldest child of Mr. Joseph Magee, age 9 years past. Skating was good, and the children of the neighborhood had been enjoying a good past time during the forenoon and little Bryce, with his parents' consent, started out to enjoy his afternoon. He had place on his skates and apparently directed his course over a dangerous bar where he broke in; his screams were heard by his uncle, who hastened with a boat to the rescue, only to find that the poor little fellow had sunk to a watery death. His body was straightway recovered and born in sadness to his home, where a broken hearted mother and father, who had received the intimation earlier, received all that was left of their son, so active in life but an hour and a half before. This death has cast a gloom over the entire neighborhood, who in very large numbers showed their sympathy  in every possible way. The funeral was conducted by the pastor, W.S. Boyce, at 10 a.m. on Saturday, 9th, taking for his text, "Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in Heaven, that one of these little ones should perish."

Little Bryce had been trained in a religious manner and was a regular and an attentive member of the Sunday School where in the summer on Decision Day, he with many others, decided for Christ. It is no vain thing to serve the Lord. Mr. and Mrs. Magee mourn their loss, but not without hope, they have the sympathy and prayers of the entire community and many beside.

 

Sad Drowning Accident

The Pines, Jan. 11 – A very sad drowning accident happened on Thursday, January 7th, when Bryce Alton, eldest son of Joseph Magee, The Pines, a boy of nine years, after eating his dinner left his home going to Hay Bay a short distance away, to skate. After passing his Uncle Andrew’s, he skated into a crack in the ice, over a bar. His uncle heard him call, but not recognizing it as a human voice, thought it was an owl and looking around for the bird saw the little fellow disappear. He reached the spot as soon as possible, help was secured but too late and in a little more than an hour after he left his home, a bright, active boy, the lifeless body was carried in to his sorrowing mother. An impressive service was conducted at the home on Saturday by Rev. W.S. Boyce, Methodist minister, after which the body was taken to Napanee vault to await interment.

McGEE – At the Pines, on Nov. 9th, Joseph McGee, aged forty-seven years.

 

Death's messenger came with but little warning on Tuesday, November 9th to Joseph Magee, at his home, Belleview Farm, The Pines post office. Although he had not been in the best of health for some time, Mr. Magee was able to be about and attend to his ordinary duties, and on the Saturday preceding his death finished up his plowing and other fall work. He did not complain before retiring on Saturday night, but early Sunday morning he got up to attend to one of the children and was seized with a hemorrhage of the brain. He was unable to get back into bed without assistance and soon afterward lapsed into unconsciousness. Relatives and a doctor were speedily summoned, but they could do but little for him and he sank gradually until Tuesday morning, when he passed away shortly before 8 o'clock. In the opinion of the family doctor and his friends, the unfortunate man's death was hastened by an incident which happened a few days before he was taken ill. His team ran away from the front of the house as he was preparing to drive into Napanee and he had a long chase after the horses. The excitement caused his nose to bleed very freely, and from that time on he was troubled with nose bleeds. Fretting over the death of his eldest son, Brice, who was drowned in Hay Bay while skating last winter, is also thought to have hastened the end, Mr. Magee not having enjoyed the best of health since that unfortunate occurrence.

The late Joseph Magee was a member of one of the oldest and best known families in Lennox County, and being of a genial disposition and generous almost to a fault, was highly esteemed by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. He was born in Ireland 49 years ago, but when a mere lad came to Canada with his father, the late Robert Magee, who passed away two years ago. The family first located near Picton, but very shortly afterward took up land at The Pines and has resided there ever since. In politics deceased was a staunch Liberal, while in religion he was prominently identified with the Methodist church. He was also a member of the Orange Order, and one of the most public spirited residents of the neighborhood in which he spent the greater portion of his life. A widow and three small children survive him and they have the sincere sympathy of the entire community.

The funeral took place on Thursday of last week, and was one of the largest seen in Lennox County in many years, friends driving many miles to pay a last tribute of respect to the memory of deceased. Among the mourners were relatives and friends from Toronto, Hamilton, Picton, Napanee, Wolfe Island, Bath, Kingston and other places. An impressive funeral service was conducted at the house by the Methodist minister, after which the remains were taken to Napanee and place in the vault. Later on they will be transferred to the family burial ground and placed beside those of the father and son of deceased. The pall bearers were five brothers, William, Andrew, John and Alex., all of the Pines, Robert, of Toronto, and a brother-in-law, James Dickson, of Sillsville.

 

Very sad indeed was the death of Joseph McGee, “The Pines” on Tuesday morning, after but a few days illness. Deceased took ill on Saturday night and when a doctor was summoned pronounced the trouble hemorrhage of the brain. He was forty-nine years of age and leaves a wife and three small children. About ten months ago the eldest son was drowned. Deceased was one of a family of six brothers, all residents of Fredericksburgh. The funeral took place this afternoon.

Margaret Elizabeth

(nee Lawson)

 

THE LATE MRS. JOHN MAGEE - Margaret Elizabeth Lawson, beloved wife of John Magee, passed away at her home in South Fredericksburgh on March the 29th . The daughter of the late James Lawson and his wife, Mary Ann Melville, Mrs. Magee was born on a farm adjoining the one on which she spent her married life. In her early childhood her parents moved to Petrolia where her father was in business for some years until their return to Napanee. She was married to John Magee on September 3rd 1889, theirs being the first marriage in the U.E. L. Church at Dorland.

Mrs. Magee leaves to mourn her loss, one sister, Mrs. D. S. Cowan, of Petrolia; an aunt, Mrs. R. J. McKee of Los Angeles; her husband, one son, Bert, of Sillsville, and six daughters, the Misses Hattie and Margaret, at home, Mrs. H. M. Hough of Sillsville; Mrs. Floyd Vannest, of Hawley, Mrs. F. B. Wright and Mrs. William Henwood of Conway.

Mrs. Magee was much respected and beloved in the community. She was a woman of ready wit and youthful spirit, which kept her young in heart and mind to the last. Due to the proximity of the Union Church the ministers, both Anglican and Methodist, were the frequent recipients of her broad-minded hospitality. She was a woman of deep religious convictions and strove to impress them upon her family. Her passing has left a great gap in the family circle.

The funeral service was held in the U.E.L. Church, Dorland, from which she was carried to the cemetery, and laid to rest beside her father.

 

At Adolphustown, Wednesday, March 29th, 1939, Mrs. John Magee, in her 77th year.

 

MRS. JOHN MAGEE

SILLSVILLE – After an illness of less than two weeks, Mrs. John Magee passed peacefully away at her home recently. Mrs. Magee, whose maiden name was Margaret Elizabeth Lawson, was the eldest daughter of the late James Lawson and Mary Ann Melville, and was born in Adolphustown 76 years ago. During her childhood the family moved to Petrolia, where her father was engaged in the oil business for a number of years, later returning to this neighborhood.

On September 3, 1889, she was united in marriage to John Magee in the U.E.L. Methodist Church, and since then had lived on the same farm. Besides her sorrowing husband, she is survived by one son, R. J. Magee, and six daughters, Mrs. Harold Hough (Marion), Mrs. F.B. Wright (Jessie), Mrs. Floyd Vannest (Edna), Mrs. W.R. Henwood (Elsie), and Miss Hattie and Miss Margaret at home, also twenty grandchildren and one sister (Hattie), Mrs. D.S. Cowan, Petrolia, and one niece, Mrs. William Abrahart, Sarnia, and one aunt, Mrs. Rebecca MacKee, of Los Angeles, Calif. Two brothers, John and James, and one sister, Ida, predeceased her.

While not enjoying the best of health for some years, she had been as well as usual all winter, and when the W.M.S. of which she was a life member, met in her home on March 1, she led the devotional part of the meeting. When she first contracted the prevailing epidemic, pneumonia developed and proved fatal, in spite of all that medical attention and loving care could do.

The funeral services were conducted by her minister, Rev. G.A. Puttenham, B.A., B.D. After a short service at the house the cortege proceeded to the U.E.L. United Church, where Mr. Puttenham gave a comforting message. Interment was made in the cemetery adjoining. The bearers were her son, her four sons-in-law, and her eldest grandson, Douglas Magee.

MAGEE – At South Fredericksburgh, 20th Nov., Robert Magee, aged eighty-four years.

 

PAST THREE SCORE AND TEN - Mr. Robert Magee was born in the County of Donegal, Ireland, in the year 1823, and died at The Pines, South Fredericksburgh, on November 20th, 1907, having reached the ripe age of 84 years, 9 months and 6 days. The funeral was held in the Union church, where in spite of the unfavorable condition of the roads, and other obstacles, a large number of neighbors and friends gathered to pay their respect to all that was mortal of the deceased. Six sons, viz., Robert, of Toronto; William, John, Andrew, Alexander and Joseph, all of The Pines, acting as pall bearers, and one daughter, Mrs. J. Dickson, Hayburn, mourn the loss of a kind-hearted and affectionate father. The funeral was conducted by the Rev. W. S. Boyce, after which the body was placed in the vault at Napanee, to be interred at a later date in the Methodist cemetery, Adolphustown. The subject of this obituary was a good citizen, highly respected, in religion a Methodist; in his Christian life he was devoted to his Master, and the church of his choice. He was one of the principal men who engaged in the erection of the Union church, and was one of the chief supporters of God's cause in this community. A large number of friends sympathize with the sons and daughter and relatives of the deceased, believing however, that their loss was his gain.

 

MAGEE - Robert Magee was born in Donegal, Ireland, 1823, and died at “The Pines,” South Fredericksburgh, November 20, 1907, at the advanced age of eighty-four years, nine months, and six days.  The funeral was held at the Union Church, and was largely attended.  The body, which was laid in Napanee vault, will be buried in the U.E.L. Methodist cemetery at Adolphustown.  Bro. Magee was a life-long Methodist, his early home in Ireland being a regular place for worship.  He was highly respected by all, and was a man of pure life and deep piety, devoted to the church of his choice, and a good supporter of it.  He was alive to every good work.  He leaves behind him a family of six sons and one daughter to mourn his loss.  We believe that “He was faithful unto death,” as he longed for his Master’s coming to adorn him with “a crown of life.”  The sorrowing friends have the sympathy of a wide circle of friends.    W.S. Boyce

 

ROBERT MAGEE - The subject of this memoir was born in Donnegal, Ireland, Feb. 14th, 1823. In 1848 he married Annabella Anderson, with whom he lied happily, till she was called to the home above, in Dec. 1887. Their home was consecrated to the worship of God, regular preaching service being conducted in it almost from the time of their marriage till their removal to Canada in 1869. On their arrival here they promptly connected themselves with the church of their choice viz Methodist and many Methodist ministers will remember with pleasure the genial welcome they always received at the Magee home. He was a willing worker, and frequently during his illness expressed regret that he was no longer able to serve the church. In 1871 he settled on the farm on the shore of Hay Bay, South Fredericksburgh, where he remained till his death Nov. 20th, 1907. His last days were spent with his youngest son, Alex where all that tender hands could do to relieve his suffering was done. His last words to his daughter-in-law were "God Bless You." They raised a family of seven sons and one daughter. Samuel passed to the beautiful home twenty-seven years ago. The remaining six sons, William, Robert, Andrew, John, Joseph, and Alexander, bore all that was mortal of their father to his last resting place. The daughter is Mrs. James Dickson, of Hayburn. Relatives came from Hamilton, Toronto, Picton and Milford to pay their tribute of respect to the departed. We cannot mourn for him, he was anxious to pass away and be at rest. The funeral was in Union Church, Rev. W.S. Boyce officiating with true brotherly sympathy.

Ella & Harry

 

Obituary - The fatal diphtheria has made sad havoc in the home of Mr. Ezra A. Mallory, of Adolphustown.  Ella the youngest child, a bright and beautiful girl, in the 13th year of her age, fell a victim to its power on the 18th Nov., 1889.  During her brief illness everything that the utmost love and tenderness could suggest was done to save her life, but in vain. She was very sweetly resigned to the blessed Saviour's will, and died in the triumphs of a child's confiding faith.

On the evening of the day of little Ella's funeral, Harry, the youngest boy, - a fine, promising young fellow, in the 17th year of his age, was seized with the fatal malady;  and while the promptest measures were adopted, he sank rapidly, and on the 28th Nov. was laid to rest in the Methodist burying ground, by the side of his sister whom he loved so well.

If there be any consolation in religion in the hours of our deepest anguish, it must surely be a comfort to the bereft parents and friends to know that the dear children had so recently knelt side by side at the Saviour's feet for salvation, and through the simple faith of childhood had obtained the brightest assurance of their acceptance with God.  In his last moments Harry gave the clearest evidence of the hope of eternal life, and talked very sweetly of the reunion with his darling sister in the beautiful mansions of light.  They were lovely in life, and in death undivided.

For ever with the Lord, amen, so let it be.     H. Ash.

Annie

(nee Gleason)

 

Mrs. John Manion -

Death once again has caused a widespread sorrow throughout this community, on February 9th last, also around her native country where she was born, in the person of Mrs. John Manion, formerly Miss Annie Gleason.  She was of a loveable disposition, a person of rare Christian virtues, whose life was an adornment, which dignified the sacred position of a wife and mother, a holy life studded thick and fair with earthly deeds.  She was a young woman, whose future life seemed to be foreshadowed with every happiness, as her home seemed to always have a ray of bright sunshine within, no matter how dark it seemed outside.  She was great of soul with a keen intelligence, a generous heart, a loyal and energetic disposition, with an unshakable will, she being the kind of a mother we all love to admire.

Her kindness and strength of character endeared her not only to her family, but also to the many friends whom she always treated in a cordial manner. Her company was always agreeable and attractive, and many were the tributes heard to her womanly character and staunch faith;  also messages of grief and regret heard on all sides.  So we all send prayerful sympathy to her dear family, especially her mother and sisters and poor dear little children, who have ever been the object of her tender care and attention.  So may her Blessed Mother console these in her tender and loving way, until time gives pleasure to the love that they  all will enjoy together for all eternity.

The kindness of the neighbours is to be remembered since her death offering a helping hand in different ways.  the same was with herself, no sacrifice was too great for her to show her good will in giving a helping hand to any one who stood in need of it.

Her funeral took place on Tuesday to St. Patrick’s Church, where a solemn High Mass was sung by her Priest Father McDonald, who administered the last rites of her Church to her on her dying bed.  The many spiritual offerings, numbering sixty-seven, bore testimony of the esteem in which the deceased was held.

MANION - At Richmond, on Saturday, February 9th, 1929, Annie Manion, aged 42 years and 8 months.

 

OBITUARY - Miss Ida May Manion -

Many hearts were saddened and shocked on Monday morning, July 10th, when word was received that Ida Manion had passed peacefully away to the Great Beyond, at her beautiful home, near Selby, after a lingering illness, although for several years she had been failing in health, the last two months being very trying.  Despite all that loving hands and medical skill could do to prolong her earthly flight, she passed away with a perfect resignation to God’s will.  Her sufferings were very intense by times, but she bore them with great patience and cheerfulness with a courage seldom exceeded.

It seems so hard to see a sweet young life like Ida’s cut off in the prime.  It seems so strange about a month ago her friends were summoned to her bedside, fearing the end was near, but with wonderful recuperative power she rallied again, and seemed much better in health, but a sudden change later on seemed to follow, and terminated in her death.  She was a member of the League of the Sacred Heart and Altar Society.  She was also a member of the Women’s League, in which she was always much interested.  She was very fond of music and flowers, and enjoyed the association of her friends.

The funeral took place Wednesday morning to St. Patrick’s Church, Napanee, where a solemn requiem mass was sung by Reverend Father O’Connor for the repose of her soul.  Her beautiful casket had a number of religious offerings from her friends.   The pall-bearers were Messrs. Frank Denison, Shirley Lewis, Jack Donovan, John Manion, Tom Manion and Mr. Bradshaw.

Reginald Mapp’s Body Recovered -

NAPANEE,  June 21 - The body of Reginald map, who lost his life in the Napanee River on Thursday morning was recovered shortly after three o’clock in the afternoon, the recovery being mad by the use of a seine.  From twenty to twenty-five men were working when the body was recovered.  It was down to a depth of over twenty feet.  The body was taken to the undertaking parlors of VanLuven and Wartman.  No inquest will be held.

Mapp, a young Englishman, aged about 23 years, was drowned in the Napanee River near Woodcock’s school-house, about five miles west of here, yesterday morning.

The young man, who formerly worked for several farms in the district, had been employed with the stone-crusher.  A boat, which had been tied to the dock, drifted out into the river and the young man threw off his coat and started to swim out. He had gone a short distance when he sank from sight.  Efforts were made to rescue him, but they proved to no avail.

KILLED IN ACTION - PTE. R. M. MARLIN -

Pte. Richie M. Marlin was born in Hungerford, Ont., February 16th, 1897, and died on the field of France, April 9th, 1917.  Pte. Marlin was of a kind and loving disposition, always willing to lend a helping hand, and was well liked by young and old of the neighborhood in which he lived.  Richie was one of the brave boys who thought that liberty and freedom were better than life under Prussian rule.  He therefore voluntarily left his father’s home and went to a foreign land to do his bit for King and Country.  A memorial service was held on Sunday, June 24th, in Ebenezer Church.  The church was crowded with sympathizing friends, and the address was given by his Pastor, Rev. J. F. Everson, and was full of sympathy and patriotism.  It was a masterly address from the text, Matthew 10:39, “He that findeth his life, shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.” 

He threw his living breast to stem the German tide,

This volunteer from Canada he as veteran tried.

He met the boast of William’s host,

He met them hand to hand,

This volunteer from Canada,

This boy of our land.

When men come back from war’s grim track,

And silent is the gun;

I’ll look with pride on him that died,

And say he was my son.

MARY A. MERRETT -  The beloved wife of Israel Marshall, died in the Lord August 20th, 1885, at their residence, Caistor township, aged forty years five months and twelve days.  Our sister was married to him that now mourns his loss for nineteen years.   The gap that death has made is great, as there are eight of an offspring left behind, and a part of whom are very tender in days and years, and need much care.  The departed sister was brought to God at the early age of twelve years, and has been a member of the Church ever since.  In early life the servants of God made their home at her father’s house.  And it was no doubt a source of comfort to her  to remember the fervent prayers that were offered for her in early life by the missionaries that scattered the Gospel truths through this part of the work.  Her aged father passed on before her some five years, and will greet her on the other shore.  For some ten years our departed sister has been in an uncertain state of health, and been thus reminded that her end was somewhat nigh.  Rev. Mr. Kennedy visited and prayed with her, and gave testimony at the funeral of her bright prospects for the land of the holy.  Though much desired, her useful life could not be spared.  Her remains are deposited in the graveyard at Ker Church; but her spirit is with Christ.  The funeral was large, and was conducted by Rev. Mr. Duff and Rev. Mr. Kennedy.  The pastor discoursed from the words, “All flesh is as grass.”  Many tokens were shown by those present of their deep respect that they had for Sister Marshall.  May her family and neighbors meet her in heaven, when our toils are over.

ROBERT MARTIN -

Robert Martin of Camden, born in the village of Newburg in the early fifties, died at his residence at the age of 85.  Having contracted pneumonia he lay ill for ten days and failed to respond to the treatment afforded him.  All of his family were at his bedside when the end came.  The deceased, whose father died when he was quite young, was left the sole support of a widowed mother and five sisters, only one of whom, a sister, Mrs. Yerex of Portland, Oregon, survives him.

Later in life he married Agnes E. Weese, who predeceased him almost three years ago.  Of the union three sons and two daughters were born, all of whom survive him, Harry C. and Dr. R. D. of Niagara Falls, N.Y., Reginald of Winnipeg, Miss Hazel at home and Mrs. Harold Nugent of Wesley.

The deceased was a successful farmer, having developed and maintained one of the best farms in the township.  His judgement was often sought relative to crop and soil conditions, of which he had made a study.  His home was an open house to anyone who cared to come under his roof.  He was a strong supporter of the Conservative Party. In his passing the community loses a familiar figure with a fund of ready Irish wit.

Rev. E. F. Swayne conducted a very impressive service at Wesley United Church and later at Camden East cemetery, where the remains were laid to rest beside those of this wife, sister and father.

After an illness extending over a period of several months, there passed away on Monday one of the best known and highly esteemed residents of Napanee, in the person of Ashton McCabe at the age of 72 years.

For the past number of years, Mr. McCabe had not been in the best of health and retired from a farm several years ago, coming to Napanee. Since April he had been confined to his bed and for the past few weeks his condition had been critical.
