Death of Aged Fairfield Resident Occurs Wednesday
The death of Mr. James M. Muffley, father of Fred C. Muffley, occurred at the home of the latter in Fairfield, Wednesday evening, September 17. Death was due to cardia asthma, from which he had been a sufferer for several years, aggravated by a recent attack of flu. The body was taken to Gooding for preparation for burial and, accompanied by the son, shipped to Osage, Iowa, the former home, on Thursday.
James Monroe Muffley was born in Buffalo, New York, in 1845. As a young man he moved to Iowa, where he was engaged in business and was married, in 1878, to Miss Carrie Loomis. To the union was born two sons, Fred C. of Fairfield and Max of Los Angeles. His life work was in the grain business, from which he retired in 1911 and came to Idaho to live. His wife died in Fairfield eight years ago. Since then he has made his home with his son.
In addition to the two sons, two sisters of the deceased survive him, both living in Los Angeles. Max Muffley is sick in that city at the present time and following the funeral in Iowa, Fred Muffley will go there before returning to Fairfield.
The deceased was a quiet, unassuming man, a great lover of the outdoors and an omniverous (sic) reader. He was not a member of any church or fraternal order, but his life was ordered in kindliness and forbearance and justice toward all men. Only a few knew him intimately, but these were deeply impressed with his many excellent qualities of mind and heart.
