Obituary from The Casualty Actuarial and Statiscial Society of America:
James F. Mitchell, a charter member of this Society, died at his home in St. Davids, Pennsylvania, on Sunday February 9, after an illness of about a year. He was buried in Valley Forge Memorial Cemetery on Tuesday, February 11.
Mr. Mitchell was born in Baltimore on September 12, 1877, and was educated in the public schools of that city and the City College of Baltimore. He began his insurance career in the Home Office of the Maryland Casualty Company, starting as an office boy. He early became a deep student of the casualty business and as a result of his interest and study was advanced to the position of Secretary of the company. In 1916 he resigned this position to become Assitant United States Manager of the General Accident Fire and LIfe Assurance Corporation in Philadelphia. His special attention in this company was given to underwriting and he became a recognized authority on casualty, actuarial and underwriting procedure. Much of the credit for the company's remarkable progress has been attributed to Mr. Mitchell's ability as an underwriter and on April 1, 1935, he was appointed United States Manager to succeed Mr. Frederick Richardson when the latter became Deputy Chairman of the Board in Perth, Scotland.
Mr. Mitchell was a member of many clubs and organizations, including a number associated with the insurance business. In addition he was deeply interested in the affairs of the Wayne Methodist Church and was president of the board of trustees. It is with deep regret that we record the passing of another of the charter members of this Association. We owe much to the foresight and vision of men like James F. Mitchell and are grateful to him for the sound foundation wihich he helped to build for the casualty business.295
