Partridge, Frederick B.
Delphos Republican, November 4, 1932
Frederick Blake Partridge was born at Geneva, Illinois on November 2nd, 1863 and passed out of this earthly life at his home in Delphos, Kansas on Tuesday, October 25th, 1932. He lived at and near the place of his birth until he was a young man, and then came to Kansas, arriving at Minneapolis on the day he was nineteen years old. While he was growing up, he helped his father in a cheese factory. After coming to Kansas he lived on a farm south of Minneapolis until he was elected County Clerk in 1900, in which office he served for four years. He then went to Bennington, where he was cashier of the State Bank for two years. Twenty-five years ago he became cashier of the First National Bank of Delphos, which position he held until his death.
On May 11th, 1901 at Topeka, Kansas, he was joined in marriage to Miss Mamie M. Tart of Bennington, and they established their home in Minneapolis. To this union were born four children, all of whom survive their father, the two oldest sons having established homes of their own.
Mr. Partridge is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mamie Partridge, three sons and one daughter: Donald of Raton, New Mexico, Harry of Grand Island, Nebraska; Rowena and David of the home; a sister, Mrs. Anna Crafts, of Elgin, Illinois; two nieces, Mrs. Anna Wright of Clay Center, Kansas, and Mrs. Ella Steel of Mankato, Kansas, and three nephews, who live in Illinois. He also had one grand-daughter, other more distant relatives and many friends.
He was a member of the Presbyterian Church of Delphos, having united with the church in the fall of 1921. He was a member of the Masonic and Odd Fellow Lodges of Delphos, a charter member of the Delphos Lions Club, and active in projects for the progress of the community.
Mr. Partridge was an industrious man, always active in his work, a faithful husband and father, a loyal citizen, and his going will leave an empty place in his business and home life that will be hard to fill.
The funeral was held from the City Auditorium in Delphos under the direction of his pastor, Rev. Ernest L. Brown. Mrs. O.L. Young of Minneapolis sang as a solo the song, Face to Face," and Mrs. Young and Mrs. W.W. Wagner sang as a duet, the hymn, "No Night There." Mrs. Willard Casey presided at the piano. The following members of the Bankers' Association carried the body of their friend to its last resting place: Alva Adams of Delphos, Lucius Merryfield and Alfred Midgley of Minneapolis, Newton Emery of Tescott, George Nelson of Bennington, and George Chapin of Glasco. Interment was made in the Bennington Cemetery.
