His health had been failing for some time past, but not until comparatively recently had it been apparent that death was so near at hand. Mr. Palmer was born at Brier Hill, April 15, 1865, the son of David and Lucinda Green Palmer. He came to this village 21 years ago, and at first took a position as telegraph operator at the local railroad station. He gave up this line of work to enter the employ of Cushman & Marwirk, an undertaking firm, predecessors to the present Cushman company. He conducted a grocery business with B.B. Parker for a time, but sold out his business and was employed in the hardware stores of M.E. Loveland and W. Bowne before entering the postoffice in 1901 where he has been continuously since. in 1894 he married Miss Dora Draper, a daughter of Mrs. Helen Draper of this village, who survives him, together with one son, Donald, and a daughter, Dorothy. He also leaves three brothers, George of Gouverneur, Edward E. of Minneapolis and Wilson H. of Gouverneur. He was a member of the Presbyterian church of this village and also a prominent Mason, being affiliated with Gouverneur lodge, No. 217, F.&A.M.; Gouverneur Chapter No. 233; and Marble City Commandery, K.T., being secretary of the latter two organizations at the time of his death. He was a member of the local teal of Maccabees. He was a man much esteemed in this village and well liked in the postoffice. In politics he was a Republican, with strong independent tendencies., but had never been a seeker after public office. He was a patient sufferer and to the last his thought were of the friends and comrades of his many years of business and friendship associations here. He was one of the charter members of the Masonic club, which formerly was conducted independently of the Masonic lodge, and up to recently was a frequent visitor at the Masonic cub, where he will be genuinely missed.

| 5548 | from "The Waukausha Freeman", 16 Dec 1880 On Friday morning, the 3d inst., Mrs. Mary Louise Pratt, eldest daughter of A. E. Perkins, Esq., of Mukwonago, and wife of Jos. A. Pratt, of that place, expired at the Jones House, Burlington, at the early age of 35, a victim of the dreadful destroyer - consumption. Mrs. Pratt was on her way from the far west, where she had spent some months with her husband in the vain hope of at least a partial restoration to health. A few weeks before her death her mother was telegraphed for, and answered the summons in person, and her father went on a few days later, so that she was surrounded by loving hands and hearts in her last illness. But in the last week of her life there sprang up within her an irrepressible longing to see her old home once more, and so she was tenderly brought back, and the little party reached Burlington, Racine County, on Tuesday evening. Tired as she was, the eighteen miles that intervened between her and the home of her childhood seemed an impossible journey, and she stopped with her friends, to rest. She never afterwards rallied sufficiently to undertake the remainder of the journey, and on Friday morning she was called away to her eternal home. The writer of this memorial was acquainted with Mrs. Pratt in her girlhood, and knew her as one of the most charming and brilliant of young ladies, a decade and a half ago. Although independent in thought and action, she was devoted in her affection and solicitude for her friends, and those who knew her best were those who loved her most. In her school studies she was energetic and untiring, and for their better prosecution attended school in Boston, and afterwards at Carroll College and at the Rockford Seminary. Her school work at the latter place brought on a severe illness which is thought to have been the foundation of the disease which finally proved fatal. In September, 1870, she was married to Mr. Joseph A. Pratt, of Mukwonago, and with a loving husband and a happy home near the parents whom she idolized, her lot in life seemed enviable, indeed. After the birth of her little daughter, Gracie, in 1874, however, her health gradually failed, and a year ago it was seen that her life was in imminent danger. Since then every means known has been tried to restore her, but in vain. As a last resort, on the 23d of September last, her husband took her to Platte Valley, Nebraska, but the change seemed for the better only for a few weeks, and when she became certain that her end was near she felt anxious to come home to die. Thus a precious life has faded away before reaching its prime. The loss is felt beyond the family circle, and although the grief-stricken parents and husband, the brothers and sisters, as well as the orphaned little girl of six years old, will receive the tender sympathy of all in their great loss, that loss will be felt to extend to the society itself, among which she moved, and she will be long and lovingly missed there.
