“REAPER CALLS HENRY FOWLER, NAPA PIONEER 

Henry Fowler of Napa, the well-known capitalist and one of the oldest pioneers 
of the State, died Tuesday afternoon [October 18] at his residence in Napa 
after a brief illness. Mr. Fowler was 82 years of age. He came to California 
fifty years ago [1844] and settled in Napa, where he accumulated a fortune. 

Probably no man in Northern California was better known or more universally 
beloved than Henry Fowler. He was strongly identified with the early history of 
Napa County and was interested in many of her enterprises. He was a man of pure 
character and strong intellect and was widely known for his many kindly acts. 

Mr. Fowler is survived by a widow [Catherine (Magness) Fowler] and four 
daughters — Mrs. John H[olland] Mallett [Harriet Ann Fowler], wife of the vice 
president of the Renters' Loan and Trust Company; Mrs. E[lza] E[llsworth] 
Kindlespire [Tena Katherine Fowler], wife of the capitalist of this city; Mrs. 
Sherwood Bird [Lillian Minerva Fowler] and Mrs. [William Thomas] Dinwoody 
[Maude Henrietta (Fowler) Dinwoodey]. 

The funeral, which will take place this afternoon, will be one of the largest 
ever held in Napa. The interment will take place in Toulocay [sic] Cemetery [in 
Napa].” END
