| Witness-Obituary |
- 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 practicing physician in this part of the country for it was for 53 years that Dr. Mabee practiced 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 unequaled 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 practice medicine and continued there ever since. Dr. Mabee was known all over the countryside. He was a friend and counselor 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.
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.
