Mr. Drummy was born in the state of New York June 29, 1885 [Note: this date is incorrect and should probably be June 29, 1857 as per 1900 census]. His age was 65. His parents came to Dubuque county when he was a child. Afterwards they moved to Delaware county. They lived in the vicinity of Castle Grove for many years. Mr. Drummy was united in marriage to Mary E. McLaughlin, April 2, 1877. Mr. and Mrs. Drummy came to Emmetsburg over thirty years ago. They subsequently made their home in this city. Mr. Drummy is survived by his wife, one son and four daughters. The son is John Drummy, well known to our many local readers. The daughters are Mrs. O.W. Lans of Chicago, Mrs. W.P. McNally and Mrs. F.A. McCarty of Emmetsburg and Mrs. Frank Stookey of Kirksville, Missouri.
Mr. Drummy was a traveling salesman for a number of years and he also served as a city marshal for quite a long time. Several years ago he opened a grocery store. He enjoyed a substantial patronage and built up a profitable business, which is still conducted on North Broadway.
Mr. Drummy was deservedly esteemed as a business man, a citizen and a Christian gentleman. He was a far seeing, provident husband, a kind, considerate, loving father and a patriotic member of our community. Though his physical constitution would not permit him to perform laborious duty, he ????? best to give to the members of his family all of the advantages in life that his means could provide and he contributed creditably to every worthy local enterprise. He was painstaking and careful in his business dealings and his numerous patrons always felt that he had tried to treat them justly. He was courteous and obliging and he would go to the limit to accommodate a friend. He practiced moderation in his habits and he was a faithful and loyal member of his church. He read current literature closely and he kept well posted on home and general affairs. We prized Mr. Drummy's friendship and on many occasions, we felt deeply indebted to him for his loyal support and his hearty good will. he will be missed as a business man and as a useful member of our community. Mrs. Drummy and the other surviving members of his family have the sincere sympathy of our numerous readers in their bereavement.
