Kingsley News-Times, 4 February 1915, page 1:
M.E. Irish, for over thirty years a resident of Arlington Township, died at his home in Moville on Sunday after an illness of about five months. Early last September Mr. Irish was taken suddenly ill while he was at the farm. That night he was taken home and medical aid summoned. At no time was there much improvement in his condition. Two weeks ago tonight he was stricken with paralysis, the stroke having rendered him speechless. Since then he sank gradually and the end came peacefully. Mr. Irish took a prominent part in politics, having been a lifelong republican. For a quarter of a century he held the office of justice of the peace and for several years was a township trustee. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at the home with Rev. F.G. Elwick officiating. Interment was made in the cemetery at Rock Branch. Manley E. Irish was born in Cook Co., Illinois, on July 30, 1848, and died at Moville, Iowa, on January 24, 1915, aged 66 years, 5 months and 25 days. In 1862 after his father had enlisted in the Union army, the family moved to Linn Co., Iowa. On October 6, 1868, he married Adelaide Usher and in 1881 they moved to Ida Co., Iowa, coming to Woodbury County three years later, and locating on a farm in Arlington Township, where their home had been until two years ago when they came to Moville. Deceased is survived by his wife, three daughters, Mrs. Nellie Anderson and Mrs. Lulu Hobbs of Moville, and Mrs. Myrtle Hanson of Kingsley, three sons, Edgar and Vernon of Portland, Oregon, and Herbert of Moville, three sisters and two brothers. Two children died in infancy and a son, Harry, died four years ago. LINK
