Died December 7th, 1865
Obituary - March 21, 1912
Shortly after noon today there passed from this life, the spirit of Miss Mabie, one of the dearest, noblest,
self-sacrificing girls we ever knew. She was a daughter of Mrs. O. Crosby, a member of the Congregational
church, and a true Christian. Words cannot be found to express the love and esteem in which she was held
by relatives and acquaintances alike. We feel that her reward will be worthy of the work she has done, and
her crown of the purest gems. Elroy Tribune.
Laid to Rest.
Funeral service over the remains of Miss Sarah Mabie, whose death on last Thursday afternoon was noted
in last week's Leader, were held at the home of her mother, Mrs. O. Crosby, on Saturday afternoon. Rev.
Ellis, of Endeavor, by request of the deceased, conducted the services and on Monday morning, the
remains, accompanied by Mrs. O. Crosby, Miss A. M. Mabie and J. A. Crosby, were shipped to Delvan where
they were laid to rest in the family lot.
Obituary
Died
Buckley - At her residence, in this village, jan. 16, 1877, Mrs. Marianne Buckley, in the 75th year of her age.
Mrs. Buckley was born Feb. 27th, 1802 in London, and was married to Mathew Buckley Oct. 11th, 1825.
They have resided in Delavan since 1847. The fiftieth anniversary of their marriage was commemorated
Oct. 11, 1875, at the residence of their daughter, Mrs. O. Crosby. Thus, for more than fifty one years, Mrs.
Buckley and her beloved companion have journeyed together hand in hand, bringing along with
them down to old age, both the buoyancy and the love of their youth. Her years increased and the
anniversary of her wedding came round half a hundred times; children and grand-children, sprang up around
her to call her blessed; but some how, this gentle, loving one, never grew old. Her disposition seemed as
sweet and her face as happy after fifty years of wedded life, as the day it began at Lambeth Chapel in
London. And so her company to her grand children was as congenial and welcome as that of their young
associates, and all through her family her influence was felt to be a brightening and a sweetening one,
making the pathway of life more sweet and easy: and surely for the wife and mother who thus lives, life
affords a sphere and a calling as lofty as the ministry of angels. Mrs. Buckley was brought up in the faith
and worship of the English Church, in which she was confirmed in 1849. She loved its service and saw much
beauty in its forms. But her attachment to her own church was not marred by any narrow of exclusive
feeling. She loved to hear the word of God preached by any true servant of our Redeemer. She loved to
join in prayer with any one who had access to God through Jesus Christ. For years back she had been
growing in spiritual life, and in her last sickness she gave evidence in a delightful manner of the maturity
of the work of grace in her heart. When the final illness came it found her ready. There was no hurried
doing of duties neglected. Her work was done. The bed of sickness she said was just "no place at all" for
repentance and preparation for eternity. It only remained that the light which had shone so evenly and
cheeringly all through the days of activity and health, should, for a little while, give its light from the
chamber of sickness and suffering, and placed there it only shone the brighter till the hand of death
transferred it to shine in the other world. And thus with a calm living confidence in her Savior, which death
could not shake, and with a happy looking for reunion with friends gone before, she passed away.
Her greatest trial was the leaving behind of her beloved companion with whom she had lived so long. Her
gain was, for the present, to be his loss, and many a lonely hour was to come to him. But this separation
is us for a little while, and in the meantime the cheering influences of her life must live in him and in her
children. As long as life lasts, they can say:
"Whatever way my days decline,
I felt and feel, though left alone,
Her being working in mine own,
The footsteps of her life in mine."

Mrs. Hawes was the daughter of Edwin F. and Laura Mabie and was born in Delavan, Oct. 5th, 1851. She
was married to Mr. J. M. Hawes July 25th, 1871. She united with the Congregational church of Delavan,
together with her father and sister, in the spring of 1867. The prominent dates in one's life are soon
recorded, but the story of a human life who can fully write? It is especially difficult to draw the
outlines of a life like that of Mrs. Hawes. Some of the most amiable features of her character were revealed
only in the privacy of the home. Her real worth was known only to those who were gathered close about
her in the home life. The currents of her heart did not lie on the surface. With strong and warm affections
there was yet nothing demonstrative in her expression of them. It was therefore easy for one to
misunderstand her. This was true not only of her social qualities, but also of her religious experience. The
careless observer might judge her to be lacking in vital interest in spiritual things. Closer acquaintance
disclosed the fallacy of such an opinion.
One of the most pleasing and conspicuous facts in the life of Mrs. Hawes was the rapid unfolding of
Christian character which took place in the latter part of her life. For some time previous to her last illness,
she gave to near friends, delightful evidence of a heart ripening in the graces of Christian character. This
unfolding of the heart, like the opening of roses in summer, showed itself in all quiet and gentle ways
which were in keeping with her disposition and was a matter of wonder and remark among members of the
family.
The suffering of her last sickness seemed only to help forward this process and in the growing warmth of
her affection she took fresh and firmer hold upon the hearts of husband and mother and sisters, so that
in leaving them she gave herself the more fully to them. One of the richest sources of consolation to her in
her sickness was the verses of Scripture she had learned when a child in Sunday School and it was her
request that her little daughter might have her mind stored with these same words of life as a preparation
for the days of trouble.
