James Mook, the retired farmer and well known citizen, died very suddenly at his
home on Howard street, 
at 3:15 o’clock Wednesday morning, aged 60 years, 9 months and 17 days.

Mr. Mook was in his usual health until early Tuesday morning, when he suffered a
stoke of paralysis.  When 
Mrs. Mook went to call him to breakfast she found him unconscious and he lingered in
that condition until 
early next morning, when he peacefully passed away.

James Mook, son of Henry and Catherine Mook, both deceased, was born in York
township, July 25, 1847.  
His entire life was spent in the immediate neighborhood where he was born.  He was
united in marriage 
April 25, 1871, to Miss Mary Gahn.  He is survived by the widow, to sons and two
daughters, as follows: 
Chas. H. Mook, who lives at the old homestead, west of town and Granville L. Mook,
living on another farm 
owned by the deceased and located in York township about three miles west of town,
and Mrs. William 
Kleckner and Mrs. Martin Hayward, both of York Township.  e also leaves two sisters,
Mrs. Michael 
Filsinger, of North of Bellevue, and Mrs. Martin Richards, of Bellevue.

Three years ago last fall, Mr. Mook gave up active work and moved with his family to
Bellevue.  In early life 
he became converted and united with the Pike Evangelical curch and remained a
steadfast member ever 
since.

Mr. Mook was a model citizen and practiced his christianity in his daily life.  He
was honest and upright in 
his dealings with his fellow men, a kind husband and father whose sudden taking off
will be deeply 
deplored and the stricken family have the sympathy of all in their sorrow.

The funeral will take place from the house Friday afternoon at 1 o’clock, and from
York Free Chapel at 2 
o’clock, services being conducted by Rev. A.F. Beery with interment in the cemetery
adjoining.
