Courier (Thorp, Clark County, Wis.) 08/15/1918 Heagle, James (24
JUN 1841 - 9 Augl 1918) Mr. and Mrs. James
Heagle of Gilman died at the hospital at Chippewa Falls the latter
part of last week. Mr. Heagle died on Friday morning and Mrs.
Heagle on Saturday evening. Old age, heart trouble and general
debility were the cause of both instances. Mr. Heagle was
born at Rawdan, Ontario, June 24, 1841, and had reached the age of
77 years, 1 month and 15 days. Mrs. Heagle (nee
Elizabeth Ann Eaton), was born at Kingston, Ontario, May 25, 1848,
and had reached the age of 75 years, 2 months and 15 days. They were united
in marriage at Madoc, Ontario, Nov. 19, 1863 and in 1865 came to
this country, locating in the town of Osborne, Outagamie Co., Wis.,
where they resided until 1887 when they moved to Cadott and in 1891
to Thorp, Clark County, Wis. Here they remained until1909, when
they moved to Gilman. They have been in
failing health. Last winter they resided here with their daughter,
Mrs. Walter Fults, in hopes of gaining health, but returned to
Gilman in March without noticeable improvement. Three weeks ago
they went to the hospital in Chippewa Falls to secure relief if
possible, but of no avail. To them thirteen
children were born, six of who are still living: Edward of Cadott,
Anson, William and Roy of Gilman, Mrs. George Campbell of Park
Falls, and Mrs. Walter Fults of this place. Mr. Heagle also leaves
two brothers and four sisters who reside at Seymour, Wis., and a
brother, John Heagle, who resides here. Mrs. Heagle leaves one
sister at Madoc, Ontario, and one sister at Utica, N.Y. Together
they leave numerous grandchildren. After a long, busy
and useful life, they died as they had lived, honored, trusted and
respected. They reared their own monument while they lived in the
hearts of all who knew them. Their life was beautiful from
beginning to close, and through all the vicissitudes and sorrows
they met in the way, they never wavered. Mr. Heagle was an
honored member of the local Odd Fellows Lodge and Mrs. Heagle of
the Rebekah Lodge, these orders having charge of the funerals,
which took place on Monday afternoon from the Fults residence, Rev.
Crow assisting in the services, interment following in the Thorp
Village Cemetery. © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
