DEATH OF "TOM" LABADIE
A PIONEER OF YUBA COUNTY SUCCUMBS TO AN ATTACK OF HEART DISEASE

Anthony Philip Nicholis Labadie, a pioneer resident of Yuba county, died at
his home at Dobbins at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

The deceased, who was familiarly called Tom Labadie, was born in Canada
about 74 years ago, and came to California in 1849. He did not remain in
this State very long at the time returning East, but coming back to
California in 1851, at which time he took up his residence at Dobbins, where
he followed mining, and has resided there ever since. He was naturalized in
the Superior Court of Yuba county on May 12, 1881.

He leaves a wife, five sons, three daughters and a brother, Louis Labadie,
to mourn his demise.

During his many years residence in Yuba county he made many friends, who
will regret to hear of his death. He had been troubled with heart disease
for the past four years, having been in very poor health during that time.
For many years he was a strong robust man, and on one occasion arrested a
stage robber at his home and brought him to Marysville, receiving the then
State reward for his act.

The funeral services will be held at the Catholic Church at Dobbins tomorrow
(Sunday) afternoon at 3 o'clock. The interment will take place in the
family plot at the Dobbins Cemetery.

Notable Record in Longevity Is Held by Labadie Family

A. O. Labadie, one of the most prominent residents of District No. 10, will celebrate his sixty-third birthday January 6, 1913. He is the youngest of a family of six, all of whom are living and enjoying good health. The combined age of the six is 418 years. One of the most striking things in connection with this remarkable family is that there have been only three deaths in it in seventy-seven years. A sister died forty years ago, while the father and mother were claimed by death twenty-two years ago. This is some record in the matter of longevity and it is doubtful if there is a parallel for it in California. Mr. Labadie is naturally proud of being a member of such a remarkable family and he intends to make the sixty-third anniversary of his birth a notable event.

Compliments Couple
"At the banquet Father Enright was called upon to speak and paid a well deserved tribute of praise to the worthy couple in whose honor he was present. In the course of his remarks the reverend speaker said, in part: 'I congratulate you, Mr. and Mrs. Labadie, in being able to day to celebrate amid so pleasing conditions the silver anniversary of your marriage ceremony. I am glad that I am here and that I see around you so many well wishing and admiring friends who are here to bear testimony to your real worth and to renew a friendship that is life long and shall continue to endure through the years before you. You have occasion to feel proud on this day for Providence has blessed you. You were assured he would on that morning 25 years ago when you knelt to promise fidelity to your marriage vows in the presence of God's representation in St. Joseph's rectory at Marysville.'
Mr. and Mrs. Labadie were the recipients of many valuable presents, including silver sets of various designs and elegance. Boxes of choice flowers were sent to adorn the festive board.
