                WOULD HAVE BEEN 90 AT CHRISTMAS
Ira Larrabee Dies in Home of Son in Marlboro -- Native of Halifax and
Formerly Carried on Farm

        Ira Larrabee, 89 of Marlboro, a farmer, died in his home in that town
last night as the result of infirmities due to his advanced age.  He had
been in failing health a few years.  He would have been 90 years old on
Christmas day.

        Mr. Larrabee was born in Halifax Dec. 25, 1835, a son of Timothy and
Cynthia (Olds) Larrabee, on a farm which he later carried on.  He
married Mary Ann Jenks of Marlboro May 25, 1859. She died in 1910 and a
few years later Mr. Larrabee went to the home of a daughter, Mrs. Alice
Pepper, in North Brookfield, Mass.  After her death in 1919 he went to
the home of his son, Ernest Larrabee, in Marlboro, where he had since
remained.

        Six children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Larrabee, three of whom
survive.  They are Mrs. Mary Jane Stone and Edwin F. Larrabee of Oakham,
Mass., and Ernest Larrabee of Marlboro.  The three not living were
Geroge Ira Larrabee, Mrs. Pepper and Mrs. Alice I. Taylor.

        Mr. Larrabee was one of the first members of the Halifax Grange.
Besides his three children he leaves a sister, Mrs. C. L. Stacey of
Brattleboro.

        The funeral will be held in the home Wednesday at 11 o'clock.
