Herbert E. Mallory, who since 1903 has been successfully engaged in business as a dealer in ice at Kewanee,was born in that city on the 23d of June, 1862, his parents being George W. and Susan S. (Smith) Mallory. The father,
who was a native of New York, came to Kewanee, Henry county, Illinois, in 1845, there residing until 1888, when he took up his abode at Annawan. Throughout the remainder of his life he made his home at the latter place,passing away in June, 1901, when seventy-nine years of age. His wife was called to her final rest about a decade ago, at the age of sixty-eight years. They reared a family of ten children, all of whom still survive.
Herbert E. Mallory, who was the fifth in order of birth in his father's family, obtained his education in the public schools of his native city. After putting aside his text-books he turned his attention to general agricultural pur-
suits and was continuously identified with that line of activity from 1881 until 1903, carrying on his farming interests first in Kewanee township and later in Annawan township. On returning to Kewanee in 1903 he embarked in business as an ice dealer and has since conducted an extensive and profitable enterprise of this character.
On the 13th of September, 1888, at Annawan, Illinois, Mr. Mallory was united in marriage to Miss Cora A. Willett, a daughter of John Willett, a veteran of the Civil war, who is a mason by trade and has made his home at Annawan since pioneer times. Mr.and Mrs. Mallory are the parents of one son, Preslo,who is now fourteen years of age. The family residence is at No. 618 North Main street.
Where national questions and issues are involved Mr. Mallory gives his political allegiance to the Republican party, but in local aflfairs he is a strong supporter of the labor party. For the past two years he has acted as alderman of the first ward. His religious faith is indicated by his membership in the Methodist church, while fraternally he is identified with the Knights of Pythias and other orders. He is a most loyal and public-spirited citizen and no matter in what relation of life we find him, whether in business life, political service or social circles, he is ever found to be the same honorable and honored gentleman, who well deserves the high regard and esteem which is uniformly given him.
