Obituary
 
The whole community was shocked and saddened last Thursday morning when news 
came of the tragic accident which occurred near New Plymouth, Wednesday 
evening about 9 o'clock, resulting in the death of James B. Trevey at 11:30 
and overly injuring his friend, W. A. Coughanour of Payette.
 
James B. Trevey was born Sept. 11, 1875, near Elsberry, Missouri.  He lived 
with his parents on or near the old homestead until the year 1901, when he 
went to California, where he resided one year near Santa Monica.  In December, 
1902, he came to Payette, Idaho, where on June 4th, the following year, he was 
united in marriage with Mrs. Clara Henry.  To this union was born one 
daughter, Virginia and one son, J. B. Junior, who with their mother are left 
to mourn.  The family moved to their ranch 2 1/4 miles south of Fruitland 
about 10 years ago and have made their home there since.  Mr. Trevey was an 
expert farmer, orchardist and stock raiser, and had one of the best and most 
up-to-date ranches in the Payette Valley.  For the past few years he has been 
field man for the Idaho Canning Company.  He was a good and kind neighbor and 
friend, and was very prominent in all phases of work that were up-building and 
for the betterment of the community.  He took an active part in the school, 
the church and the I.O.O.F. lodge, being a state officer in the latter.
 
Besides his immediate family, he leaves four sisters and three brothers; Mrs. 
W. B. Sims of Payette, Mrs. Fred Downing of Elsberry, Missouri, Mrs. Minnie 
Michaels of St. Louis, Mo., and Mrs. S. D. Riggs of Emmett, Ida., Gordon 
Trevey of Elsberry, Mo., W. C. Trevey of Twin Falls, and W. B. Trevey of La 
Grande, Oregon; One sister Mrs. A. S. Hammock of New Plymouth preceded him in 
death a few years ago.
 
Funeral services were held from the M. E. Church Friday afternoon at 2:30, 
conducted by Rev. George Roseberry.  Interment was made in Park View Cemetery 
in New Plymouth.
 
Hearts are always saddened when the silent messenger of death visits the 
community and in an untimely manner, takes such a pronounced husband, father, 
neighbor and friend.
 
The many friends of Mr. Trevey and his family extend their sympathy to them in 
their hour of sorrow.
