The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, December 10, 1908 H.O. PENICK sends the Leader a copy of the New Orleans Daily States, in which we find the following sketch concerning the death of MRS. FOSTER, mother of U.S. Senator FOSTER, and the grandmother of MRS. PENICK: "Announcements made in the press dispatches from Franklin, La. of the death of MRS. MARTHA P. FOSTER, the venerable mother of United States Senator MURPHY J. FOSTER, came as a shock to the many friends here and throughout the State. Although she had lived more than a decade beyond the Scripture span of life, MRS. FOSTER, up to the period of her last illness, was remarkably active and alert both mentally and physically. MRS. FOSTER was one of those grand dames who had come down to us from the elder day, whose life was filled with good works and kindly deeds and who lingered among us bringing sweetness and beauty into the lives of those she touched. The art of growing old gracefully and beautifully has seldom been so perfectly exemplified as it was in the life and character of this splendid Southern matron. With her young sons she went bravely through the trying period of the war, her husband and all her relatives who were old enough having taken up arms in the Confederacy. The most pathetic part of the war is not the long and toilsome marches, nor the dreary bivouac in some inhospitable country, nor yet the charge amid fire and blood upon the battle field. The real tragedy of war is worked out in the life of the sad-eyed, patient woman who, in her desolate home surrounded by helpless and hungry children, sits longing and waiting with tired hands and aching heart for news from the loved ones at the front. MRS. FOSTER went through this supreme trial with heroic heart and unfailing optimism, and after the war was over, with her soldier-husband she took up cheerfully the battle of life anew. Five sons survive her, the eldest of whom, United States Senator MURPHY J. FOSTER, has long been a leader in the public affairs of the State, the others being successful business and professional men. All her life she was a devoted Christian, and in her daily life reflected the truth and beauty of the principles which she so perfectly illustrated. Her death will be mourned sincerely by thousands whose sympathy will go out to the bereaved family in their deep affliction." -------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 16, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net

She is the mother of seven children, six of whom are living, 24 grandchildren, 22 are living, and three great grandchildren of whom but one is living.

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, December 3, 1908 C.O. HAWKINS was born in Fountain County, Ind., April 5th, 1831, and at the time of his death was 77 years, 7 months and 21 days old. He moved to Davis County, Iowa, in 1840, and to Wayne County in 1854; was married to SARAH J. SWINEY on Dec. 20, 1855. Surviving him are his wife and nine children: WILLIAM M., JAMES S., CHARLES O., WALTER W. and MRS. FLORA STARK, MRS. LAURA FISK, MRS. NORA RUMBLE, MRS LEAH LAYTON and MRS. IDA HOLTEEN. In life he was an exemplary citizen, loyal to his friends and family and performed his duties cheerfully and the best encomium that can now be pronounced is to say that a good man has gone. In the days of his activity his calling was that of a farmer but gaining a competency and being advanced in years, and feeling the need of rest, he retired from the arduous toils of the farm and since then he and MRS. HAWKINS have resided in this city. For almost 30 years he had been a consistent member of the Baptist Church: "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, yea sayeth the Spirit, for their works do follow them." On Thursday, Nov. 26, 1908, when the worshipful minds were subdued in thankfulness for the Providential bounties of the year, he finished his work and went to his reward, after weeks of suffering with a complication of diseases peculiar to old age. His Pastor, Rev. Hugh Moore, conducted services here and the remains were laid to rest at the New Sharon Cemetery, in Benton Township. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 15, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, December 3, 1908 ANN ELIZA ARBOGAST, daughter of JESSE and SUSAN ARBOGAST, was born May 29, 1842, near Wabash, Indiana. At the age of 12 years she came with her parents to Illinois, where she grew to womanhood in McDounough County. She was married to JAMES WILSON, April 18, 1866 and eleven years later, December 12, 1877, the family came to this city and for many years have been counted among the substantial and thrifty people of Chariton. They were the parents of eight children, six sons and two daughters. The first break in the family circle occurred seventeen years ago when the daughter, JOSEPHINE, passed away. February 26, 1903, the father was called to his eternal home. Two years later, the oldest son, CHARLEY met with a fatal accident and was borne to the grave March 6, 1905. Monday evening, November 23, death again entered the home and claimed a most devoted mother, who counted no sacrifice too great when the interests of her family were at stake. For nearly two years MRS. WILSON has suffered from nervous trouble, the last seven months having been confined to her bed, death resulting from paresis. Messrs. ALFRED and FRANK of Arkansas City, Kansas, JOHN of Muscatine, RILEY of Kirby, Wyoming, JAMES and MARGARET of this city, are the bereaved children. Mourning with them are four brothers and five sisters of the deceased. The last sad rites were held at the home, 626 Grand St., Friday afternoon. Rev. McCullagh paid tribute to the memory of a noble woman, a most respected citizen and kind neighbor, after which the body was consigned to her long home in the Chariton Cemetery, borne to the grave by four sons and two brothers. One son, RILEY, was unable to attend the funeral. Two brothers, Messrs. MARION and DOUGLAS ARBOGAST of Grand Island and Silver Creek, Nebraska, a sister, MRS. SARAH HOWARD of Goodhope, Illinois, and a niece, MISS BEATRICE BROWN of Monmouth, Illinois, were present at the funeral. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 14, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net

'LOLA MONTEZ' (Con't) From Courtesan to Grass Valley Socialite ------------------------------------------------------------------------- While crossing the isthmus of Panama, she had gained two new suitors, both newspapermen: Samuel Brannan of the California Star and Patrick Purdy Hull, later part-owner of The Whig. Both were captivated by her dazzling beauty and worldly intellect. But it was Hull she married, after a short engagement in San Francisco. Immediately after their wedding, the couple set off on a tour of Sacramento and the nearby gold mining camps. In her lectures, years later, Lola was intensely critical of American men. She said, "They were not at home except to sleep, and they were so absorbed in the rise and fall of stocks that they had no affection to give their families. . . Thus love became a business like everything else. . . Men manipulated pretty women as they did stocks. . . ." Needless to say, Lola and Hull were soon fighting in public, and her stage appearances suffered badly. It was at this time that she dropped the role of actress and confined herself to the "Spider Dance," "Sailor's Hornpipe," and a Swiss dance complete with yodeling. Violinist Miska Hauser, traveling with her as accompanist, stopped many a cabbage-throwing crowd with patriotic salutes. Lola would come to his aid, silencing the audiences with defiant words and seductive smiles. Marital problems reached their peak when an engraved gold comb from King Ludwig arrived while the couple was in Marysville. Hull accused his wife of all types of deceit, and she retaliated by tossing his clothes out the hotel window. The beautiful and picturesque mining town of Grass Valley was the last stop on her tour. It was another Bavaria, with snow-covered mountain peaks and thick pine groves. It was also the settling spot of the famous courtesan. Lola built a home and decorated it lavishly, entertaining guests with no heed to expenses. Her European friends soon swarmed about her, as did the robust miners. She raised and cared for animals, including a bear cub, and tended to a garden. As usual, there were people opposed to her ways, but Lola made the best of it. It was here she was welcomed into the bohemian circle that also included the mother of Lotta Crabtree. Lola was fascinated with the child and taught her horseback riding and dancing. Lotta in turn adored the countess, and would visit her house regularly to eat Bavarian pastries and dress up in her fine European costumes. But when Lola planned a tour of Australia, Lotta's mother would not allow the child to go with her Lola was openly disappointed, but set out on the trip with the same high spirits she constantly maintained. Accompanying her was a young man named Augustus Noel Follin, married and the father of three children but still enraptured with the Countess. He signed on as her agent. But in writing to his relatives, he let it be known that he found the former mistress of the King of Bavaria exciting. When she returned to the United States, Lola knew her stage days were coming to an end. After a short engagement doing a sister act with Follin's young daughter, Miriam, Lola retired. She continued to hold court for many politicians and celebrities of the day. Early in 1858 Lola Montez became a champion for women's rights, taking to the lecture circuit. She traveled extensively, giving beauty advice, making critical comments about men in general, and constantly denying that she was immoral. Women found her beauty tips interesting and also enjoyed the book she published on the matter, The Arts of Beauty, or Secrets of a Lady's Toilet with Hints to Gentlemen on The Art of Fascinating. At 40, ravaged by her turbulent life and full of disillusionment, Lola took up the Bible, hoping to do penance for all her past sins. She was converted to Methodism and roamed through the New York parks, reading and quoting the scriptures. Her health was failing, and her money was gone. During her final days, she was taken in and cared for by Mrs. Margaret Buckanan, a childhood friend from Scotland. Dr. Francis Hawks cared for her religious needs, and she told him of her intense hatred of her mother and the miserable life she had as a child. Dr. Hawks wrote up her story, and The Story of a Penitent was published by the Protestant Episcopal Society. Lola died quietly on January 17, 1861. She was buried in the Greenwood Cemetery in New York. Her estate had only enough money to pay her funeral expenses and make a small donation to the Madadlen Asylum for Women. Perhaps her own words, presented in one of her lectures, best described her tumultuous life. "The great misfortune was that there was too much of me to be held within the prescribed and safe limits allotted to woman; but there was not enough to enable me to stand securely beyond the shelter of conventional rules."

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, November 19, 1908 The venerable JOSEPH PARKIN, of Union Township, died at his home on Tuesday. He was one of the well known men in the county. For the past year he had been in failing health and a few months since had an attack of heart trouble which at the time, it was not believed he could recover from, but he improved so that he seemed reasonably vigorous for a man of his years, but his vitality was surely gone, with the above result, at the later attack. He was one of the Lord's noblemen and his cheerful nature made it a real pleasure to be thrown in his company. MR. PARKIN was well advanced in years being not for from 80 years old at the time of his death; was a native of England, coming to America in his early manhood, settling first in Pennsylvania and thence to Lucas County, Iowa, where his companion died, a few years since. By birth he was an Englishman but a true American by adoption and when the great civil conflict arose enrolled himself in the Nation's defense and served until the issue culminated and peace was declared. No Grand Army meeting in the county was missed by his attendance, when able to be present and at the meeting of the recent County Veteran's Association in Chariton he made what he said might be his last speech, which it proved to be. His appearance that day, after his long illness, was pathetic. He gazed into eternity like the true hero he was. In all things he was loyal. To his country; his home; church, friends and fraternities. He was a licensed Minister of the M.E. Church, held to the religion of love rather than fear; his politics was reason over prejudice and clung to that broad fraternity of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man -- a Christian, a patriot, a Methodist, a republican, a G.A.R. Veteran, and an Odd Fellow -- true to every profession -- a citizen in peace; a soldier in time of struggle. What more can be written? The flag is at half mast while the funeral is being held at Last Chance, today. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 11, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, November 19, 1908 JOHN FOULKS, of English Township, and GRACE KING, of near Russell, were united in marriage at the Baptist Parsonage, Chariton, Sunday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock, Rev. Moore officiating in the presence of only a few relatives and friends. The bride was attired in a dark blue traveling suit. She is a daughter of MR. and MRS. AZRO KING, and is a lady of refinement and culture, possessing many charming traits of character. The groom is a son of WILLIS FOULKS and wife, and is an energetic and prosperous young farmer, and is in every respect worthy his chosen bride.

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, November 19, 1908 Evangelist Billy Sunday has his sermons copyrighted, thus no newspaper dare print them or any other person repeat them to the public, without his consent unless they desire to pay the penalty for so doing. The Ottumwa Courier printed a synopsis of his sermon on "Home," prefacing the clippings with "Copyrighted by William Ashley Sunday." This may be the proper thing for a preacher to do but to a sinner it looks much like making merchandise of the Gospel. The Leader fails to find where the Savior of Men took out a copyright on the Sermon on the Mount, which to our thinking is of greater spiritual value than anything Billy has uttered during all his years as an evangelist, but maybe Christ was not a business man in the strict sense of the word, or else he would have taken out a patent on his plan for the salvation of souls (like Billy Sunday does on his panacea for sin-sick humanity.)Jesus proclaimed the Gospel of purity up and down the shores of Galilee and pleaded for the people to accept a full and free salvation without any copyright on it. He just didn't seem to care who used his words or how many people were converted by his teachings even though it might be second handed -- but Billy Sunday adheres to a more strict business principle and would send people to perdition rather than have them behold the light -- without the copyright. And then again, according to Billy Sunday, what a mistake the evangelical writers (?) made in not taking out a copyright on the several books of the Bible, and thus restricting the Gospel reading until the publishers paid the "mulct tax," according to the theory of the apostle of fat collections. The Leader is not informed as to whether Billy has his prayers "protected" by copyright or not but should his word incense happen to penetrate, like vapor to the seat of eternal justice, it would not be safe to have them answered until a transcript was received from the American patent office. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 11, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net *Just another view on 'copyright'... smile..

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, November 19, 1908 Concerning the suicide of AARON PETERSON, a special to the Ottumwa Courier says: "Chariton, Nov. 14. -- (Special) -- AARON PETERSON, aged about 78 years, committed suicide some time Thursday night by hanging himself from the ceiling of his bedroom at the home of JOHN F. JOHNSON in Whitebreast Township, where he made his home. Despondency is given as the only known reason for the rash deed. MR. PETERSON owned a large farm and a few months ago he made a will leaving it to his daughter and her husband. He afterwards regretted it and brooded over the matter until he became very melancholy. MR. JOHNSON called him to breakfast yesterday morning and not receiving any response he went to his room and there found his lifeless body. He had wired a pole to the ceiling, from which he hung himself with a clothesline." The funeral was held from the residence on Tuesday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert April 11, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net
