ObituaryNov 30, 1919  OBITUARY: Mrs. James O. Preble; Mrs. Hannah Sibley, wife of James O. Preble, passed away at her home on Madison street Saturday evening after a long and painful illness. Mrs. Preble was born in Burlington, Maine August 19, 1852, and was the youngest of eight children of William and Azuba (Pushor) Sibley. Here she was educated and passed her early life. In August, 1869 she was united in marriage to J. O. Preble, and to this union were born ten children, eight of whom grew to adult age, and two died in infancy, while the oldest daughter, Azuba Preble Sibley, died last May. The children now living are: William C., Norris A., Annie A., and Charlie A.. of this place; Lester J. of Burlington, John H. and Orrin B. of Springfield Mass. She is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Joseph Buck of Galvin, Wash. Mrs. Preble was a great home lover a kind devoted wife and an excellent mother, always teaching her children the right way of living. While not a member of any church she was a Christian at heart, and a conscientious worker in all good works and deeds. She was a charter member of the Pythian Sister Lodge of Madison in which she was a devoted worker and loyal member. Mr. and Mrs. Preble moved to this place 19 years ago last April. This summer they moved into their new home where they observed their 50th wedding anniversary. The first week in September Mrs. Preble was taken ill and although all that medical skill and kind loving care could do was done, it was of no avail. The funeral services were held from her late home Tuesday afternoon and were conducted by Rev. E. W. Webber, assisted by Rev. William Wood. The Pythian Sisters attended in a body. The flowers were many and beautiful, silent testimonials of the love and esteem in which she was held. The bearers were Evan Adams, Earl Cox, Frank Flanders and Thomas Moore. The interment was in the family lot in Forest Hill cemetery.
