- William H. Mabie of Steamer Gardner Dies Suddenly After Leaving Boat at Kingston. Falling as he stepped into the stage in which he had planned to go to his home in Port Ewen after seeing that the steamer Gardner, of which he was the captain, had been made fast for the night at the dock at Sleightsburgh, Captain William H. Mabie died suddenly of heart disease at 6:30 o'clock Thursday evening.
Captain Mabie, one of the oldest as well as one of the best known men on this section of the Hudson river, had gone about his duties on the Gardner as usual during the day and, so far as is known, had not complained of feeling ill until after the boat had been wharfed and he was about to return home for the night
About 71 years of age, the veteran river captain had seen years of active service, having been in the employ of the Cornell Towing Company for a long period of time, during which he had charge of the tugboat Samuel Cornell. He was also captain of the "H. S. Romer" for some time and had been in command of the steamboat Gardner for the past ten years.
Despite his advanced age. Captain Mabie was one of the most active men along the river and had missed but few days from his employment through illness. He is survived by his wife and two sons, Henry and Wallace, both of Port Ewen, and both engaged aboard the "Gardner."
Captain Mabie was one of the best known men in the downtown section of the city, having a host of friends who will greatly miss his hearty handshake and cheery word of greeting.
