BRF Engineer James Noble Dead At 80

BLACK RIVER FALLS, Wis.—James Bowen Noble, 80, died at a local hospital Wednesday. He was a former structural engineer in Wisconsin and in Illinois.

He was born in Eau Claire May 14, 1880, the son of the late Dr. and Mrs. James A. Noble. He graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and worked in Wisconsin until 1918, when he moved to China. In 1928 the family returned to the United States, settling in Black River Falls.

Mr. Noble, however, established himself as a state engineer for Illinois, living in Springfield until his retirement in 1948, when he returned here.

He is survived by his wife, Harriett, former editor of the Jackson County weekly, the Banner-Journal; three sons, Dr. John Noble and James of Black River Falls and David, Santa Barbara, Calif.; a daughter, Mrs. Robert (Jahala) Noble, Riverton, Wyo.; a sister, Mrs. Horace Newhall, Phoenix, Ariz.; and a brother, George C. Noble, Los Angeles; and 16 grandchildren.

Masonic services have been planned for Friday at 2 p.m. at the local temple. Burial will be in Riverside Cemetery. Friends may call at the Ness Funeral Chapel Thursday afternoon and evening.
