Re the patents ... Did anyone else wonder what a pig snout holder was (and why would anyone want to)? First I thought it might be for a veterinarian (or a farmer) to help insert a ring into the pig's nose. Seems to me I remember that some pigs (boars I think) did have rings in their noses. Maybe they still do. Then I Googled it and find that quite recently there has been another patent granted to be used in the meat packing industry in connection with processing pig heads.

----- Original Message ----- From: virginia miller To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 10:20 AM Subject: John and William Livingston/Livingstone I am looking for information on the two brothers mentioned above. They were born in Crieff,Perthshire Scotland-John abt. 1818 and William abt. 1827. They had a sister Martha b. abt. 1823 who married John Miller in Crieff and remained in Scotland. Their mother was Josephine Macque,perhaps born in Ireland, and father was either Robert or William Livingston (a question we are researching). According to an LDS member submission in the IGI, both men died in Iowa:William in April 1877 and John in Scotch Grove, buried in Four Horn, Jones, Iowa. John is believed to have married a Margaret Ferguson in Crieff. I found a family that matches well in the 1860 census in Madison. In 1880, Margaret is a widow living with the younger of her children. I haven't been able to locate William on the census. I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who connects with this family or has information to share or can suggest some research ideas. Would there be cemetery inscriptions or death registrations available? Regards, Virginia

New Era Humeston, Wayne, Iowa March 9, 1898 THE NEWS IN IOWA - Miss Mattie Mumford, of Cedar Rapids, attempted to commit suicide by taking a large quantity of morphine. She will probably recover. No cause known. - Harry Lathrop, of Cedar Rapids, while cleaning a revolver accidentally discharged it, the ball striking his mother in the thigh. The wound is painful but not dangerous. - Charles Gerber, a refined and educated German gentleman, is in jail at Council Bluffs charged with obtaining money on worthless drafts. He has, it is alleged, secured cash in small amounts from many tradesmen in several western towns. He says his home is in Brooklyn, N.Y., and that he is connected with the firm of Gerber & Co. Gerber is 62 years old. - A relative of Frank Novak, of Walford, who was sentenced to Anamosa for murder and arson, has been faithfully attempting to get bail, but in vain. Novak must inhabit a cell until the October court passes upon the motion for a new trial. The prisoner has lost all hope and may not be able to stand the strain of procrastination in the courts. - While in school at Chariton a few days ago, Miss Lulu Welch met with a painful and serious accident. She and another pupil were at the board doing sums and Lulu had a pencil in her mouth. Somehow her companion struck her and the pencil ran through her mouth, coming out right under the left ear. The wound is painful, but the doctors say if lock jaw does not set in she will get along all right, though they are doubtful and it may cause her death. - A fearful accident, which may prove fatal, occurred at Dayton. The pretty 4-year-old daughter of Judson LeValley was playing in the yard, where her uncle, Will LeValley, was splitting wood, when through some unaccountable accident she fell in the way and was severely injured. The axe cut a long gash in the side of the head and fractured the skull. The young man is a deaf mute, and has poor eye-sight. The chances for the child's recovery are very meager. - A.N. Hull, one of the prominent citizens of Selma, near Ottumwa, and one of southern Iowa's wealthiest men, met a horrible death in the flouring mill which he owned. His coat accidentally caught on the main shaft of the fly wheel, and he was whirled around at a frightful pace. All his ribs were broken, both legs were fractured in two or three places, his back and neck were broken, and his right arm was torn off at the shoulder. He held large property interests. He was 75 years old. - At Oelwein a few days ago Joe Barnes, a 13-year-old boy, became angry at a domestic named Stella Hartford in his mother's employ, and, grabbing up a sharp quarter-inch chisel, he made an assault on her, driving the chisel with all his strength. The blow struck the girl just below the collar bone in the right side, and, passing between the collar bone and the first rib, was driven in the depth of four or five inches, penetrating the walls of the chest, severing a branch of the auxiliary artery, from which she bled until she became unconscious. The right lung was punctured. She is in a very critical condition. - The dead body of a woman was found at the edge of the river, about six miles south of Red Oak. A young man walking along the south branch railroad track found a bundle of woman's clothing near the track, and this led to the discovery of the corpse. The body was at the foot of a steep bank about six feet high and was in a reclining position, with one foot on the ice. Tracks made by a man led to the body and showed that the man had walked backward from it. About half a mile nearer Red Oak, by the side of the railroad track, another bundle of the woman's clothing was found. The woman was recognized as having been seen at the depot at Red Oak on the 28th, and it was afterwards learned that she was Mrs. Clara N. Gray, daughter of E.A. Kelley, of Farragut. - The Mahaska county grand jury has caused a great sensation by bringing in twenty-one indictments and they are still at work under the direction of George Seevers, who was appointed as county attorney, vice James Carroll. A number of saloon keepers are indicted for selling contrary to law and some of the most prominent druggists of Oskaloosa indicted for violating the liquor law. Considerable feeling exists and trouble is anticipated. The indictments thus far made public are: Jim and Bill Jackson and Dave Yancey, murderous assault; Edward Sliter, on two accounts, rape and incest; Joe Van Vliet, assault with intent to do great bodily injury; H.M. Van Vliet, Ned O'Brien, Chas. Deadel, J.H. Pickett, C.C. Pike and Elrick Drug Co. for nuisances; Solomon Smith, manslaughter. Cathy Joynt Labath Iowa Old Press http://www.IowaOldPress.com/
