Beebe, one of the best known residents of Potter County, occurred at the family home here Sunday night at 9:00 o'clock. Mr. Beebe had been in poor health for some time but did not give up his usual activities until a short time ago. The last issue of the Enterprise noted his serious illness, expressing the hope his condition might improve. Unable to talk when the paper arrived att he home, he read it and appeared pleased when he found the mention of his illness. His parents were pioneer settlers of Ulysses and Keating townships. Most of his boyhood was spent on the old Harris homestead, now owned by Ray Hackett, at Odin. He attended Coudersport High School from 1887 to 1889, then entered Alfred University, being a student there until 1892 in the civil engineering course. He made an outstanding record as a student in mathematics. After leaving Alfred he engaged in carpenter work, which trade he followed for life, gaining a reputation as an exceptionally fine workman. He was a fine tenor singer, pianist and composer. On October 26, 1894, he was united in marriage to Estella Andrews of Keating Summit and they made their home at Odin until 1912, when they moved to the present home in Coudersport. She preceded him in death three years ago, February 25, 1936. To this union were born four children, three of whom survive: - Mrs C.E. Ingalls of Coudersport, - Rev. Clifford A. Beebe of Berea, W.Va., and - Mrs W. H. Sutton of Brooklyn, NY. Mrs. Sutton has made for herself a splendid reputation as the author of the Judith Bolton series of stories for girls. A son died in infancy. He is also survived by two sisters, - Marjorie and - Gladys Beebe of Inez, and 14 grandchildren. A cousin, W.K. Everett of Odin, is the only other close relative. Mr. Beebe was the author of History of Potter County, published by the Potter County Historical Society in 1934. A tremendous amount of research work was necessary to compile the splendid work. He contributed various articles during the years of historical nature and was one of the most enthusiastic members of the local society. He was a brilliant student, an honest, upright citizen, a kind father and a generous neighbor. He will be missed by many, including the editors of the Enterprise. Funeral services, in charge of Rev. William I. Bell, were held at the First Presbyterian Church, of which he had been a member for many years, at 2:30 pm yesterday, and interment was made at Inez Cemetery.

Sutton, Brooklyn, NY; - Mrs. Adelia Mitcheltree, Keating Summit; - Mrs. Ray Mitcheltree and Mrs. Clella Avion, Emporium; - Mr and Mrs Clyde Bundy and children, Austin; - Misses Marjorie and Gladys Beebe, Inez, and - W.K.
