- The late Mrs. David Mabie was one of the earliest settlers in this part of the town. She was born at Palatine, Montgomery County, N. Y., December 31. 1795. Her maiden name was Catharine Bellinger. In the year 1803 she moved with her parents to Chittenango, Madison Co. She was married in 1816 to David Mabie, and moved with her husband in 1823 on a farm near Kirkville where she lived for 65 years, until her death. Her husband died in 1856. She had seven children. The oldest son, Simeon B. Mabie, died in 1875. The other sons and daughters who survive her are Mrs. Thomas Freeborn, Mrs. Irena Warner, Mrs. N. E. Wilcox, Mrs. C. M. Cole, Oliver Mabie, and William Mabie.
How brief a summary, and yet how much was comprehended in a life-time such as hers! With a mind clear to the last, she could recall many important events that had occurred during the ninety-three years of her life; not only such events as were connected with the little region in which so many of her years were passed, but things of greater import that have marked the world's progress during the past century. She bad a vivid perception of the changes that had occurred in the vicinity of her home. Often have her grand-children listened with eager enchantment to her tales of those first year in the wilderness sixty-five years ago, of the little log house in the clearing, of the wolves that would howl about the window at night until frightened away by a brand from the fire, and of many experiences that strangely contrast the past with the present. But grand-mother's stories will never again be told by her. One by one the pioneers of our country have gone away, and soon none will be left who remember the years "when the country was new."
Her old age was passed in quiet ease and comfort, and blessed with the love and honor of her children and grandchildren. Of late she manifested a restlessness and longing that showed that she was only waiting. The departure had no terrors for her. The pleasures and cares of many years ended and forgotten now. We are glad that she has gone to her reward

- The late Mrs. Charles Cole was born April 26, 1829, on the old homestead now owned and occupied by Oliver Mabie. She was the youngest of seven children born to David and Catharine Bellinger Mabie. David died Febeuary,1856, while his wife survived until eight years ago. Of these seven children, Simon B. died twenty years ago, and Mrs. Cole died last Tuesday, April 6th, of heart failure, being ill with catarrhal pneumonia from which she had been suffering for seven days. The age of the surviving sisters and brothers is full of interest, as Mrs. Thomas Freeborn is 78 years, Mrs. Irene Warner is 76 years, and Mrs. Noble Wilcox is 73years. There are two brothers, Oliver and William, the latter will be 70 in November, and has been unable to walk for thirty years, having suffered from paralysis. Mrs. Cole had always been very kind to this afflicted brother, caring very tenderly for him, although Oliver Mabie makes him his special charge. She would often take him home with her for several weeks and bestow upon him her tenderest attention and care. The deceased was married to Charles Cole, April 20, 1848, and is survived by the husband and two sons David and Gideon, also one grandchild. The funeral was very largely attended at the Independent church. A profusion of potted plants was placed in and around the altar. Rev. Philo Cowles, a warm personal friend of the deceased, preached from the text found in I. Corinthians, chap. 3, verses 21, 22, 23, and paid a glowing tribute to the worth of the deceased. Rev. P. Z Kinnie and family rendered the musical selections with great ability. The bearers were Joseph Shaver, George Dominick, William Chandler and Royal Hoag. Interment was made in the cemetery at this place.

- Mrs Irene M. Warner, mother of Mrs. L. A. Cooper, celebrated her ninetieth birthday anniversary Sunday and observed the occasion Monday afternoon when a- reception was held at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Guy F. Downing, North Washington avenue. A family dinner was held Sunday at the home of Mrs. Cooper.
Mrs. Warner is a wonderful and most interesting woman. Although ninety years of age, she is youthful and vigorous to a degree which would be notable in a woman half her age. She is in the best of health, her sight is excellent, and her mind as keen as that of youth. She recollects events of half and three quarters of a century ago with ease. When the Barnum & Bailey circus was in Lansing last week she attended the afternoon performance, walking to and from the grounds, a distance of twelve blocks. On the same evening she attended the High school commencement exercises to the Glatimer theatre to see her great granddaughter, Miss Norma Taylor, receive her diploma. At the end of the strenuous day she was as chipper as ever. At the close of the three hours reception Monday afternoon she was not at all weary and could hardly be prevailed upon to return home—she wanted to go calling. In the evening she received a caller and, as though she had just returned from a rest instead of from a three hour reception which is wearying to even the youngest, she chatted gayly about events of her childhood and other moments in her life. Her descendants, by whom she is greatly beloved, are fearful that she will overtax her strength but she gives their fears little provocation. She believes and practices the rule "Early to bed, early to rise." She is up with the birds in the morning and insists upon helping about the house all the day long. She is fond of walking and does a great deal of it.
She attended the carnival two weeks ago, went into the shows and stood for her picture to be taken.
She attends the Universalist church every Sunday. In short, her life is one that one that might be marveled at in a woman thirty years her junior.
Last October she came from Kirkville, N. Y., alone and walked into the home of her daughter without even notifying her that she was coming on that certain day. Twelve years ago, when she was seventy eight years old, Mrs. Warren went •to Texas alone, to visit her brother, and from there to Denver, Colo., and back to Kirkville, unaccompanied on the entire journey. It was her second trip to Texas in recent years.
Mrs. Warner has four children, Mrs. L. A. Cooper, of this city, A. L. Warner of Fulton, N. Y., Clinton D. Warner of Los Angeles, Cal., and Irving N. Warren of Provo, Utah. She has five grandchildren, among them being Mrs. Dora Eli Taylor and Mrs. Guy F. Downing of this city, and four great grandchildren, including Miss Norma Taylor of this city. She has a sister Mrs. Anna Wilcox of Kirkville, N. Y., who has reached the age of eighty-six years, and a brother, Oliver Mabie, of Kirkville, who is eighty-four years old. Mrs. Warner's mother lived to the age of 93 years, while all o£ Mrs Warner's brothers and sisters being eight in the family, lived to good old-, age.
Mrs Warner was born in 1821 in Onondaga county, N. Y She has been a widow for 37 years Thirty years ago she came ro Lansing to years ago she came to Michigan to visit and has visited in Lansing and through the State frequently since then. Last October she came to Lansing to make her home with her daughter. Between the years when she was 40 and 50 Mrs Warner suffered with stomach trouble, but when she reached the age of 50 the trouble disappeared and she seemed to take on new life. She has been in the best of health since that time.
At the reception Monday afternoon there were about 45 guests. The daughter and grand daughters of Mrs. Warner received with her. The rooms were beautifully decorated with flowers. The hostesses were assisted in the dining room and through the parlors by Mrs. Robert Smith. Miss Minnie Chapman, Mrs. Rudolph Shoemaker, Mrs. L. D. Whitney and Miss Norma Taylor.
The gifts received by Mrs. Warner were numerous and beautiful and included postal cards from one end of the continent to the other, a box containing 90 new pennies, quantities of flowers, and numbers of letters. One letter in particular which Mrs. Warner received she thought bespoke the spirit manifested by her friends. It read; "Dear Mrs. Warner: Your friends extend to you congratulations upon the occasion of your 90th birthday. It is a rare distinction, indeed to have attained this age, and while you have been spared to add still another score to the three score years and ten allotted by the psalmist, your friends wish for you many more happy returns of this day, continued good health and kindly consideration in the blessed eventide of your life.
A more grateful and deeply appreciated recipient could not be imagined than is Mrs. Warner. Each and every gift she ponders over and feels deeply the spirit which prompted the sending of it.
