Russellville Rustler, Friday, January 3, 1908 The community in general was greatly shocked last Monday afternoon by the sudden death of Jacob Dampf who passed away at the Russellville Hotel between four thirty and five o'clock. Heart failure was assigned as the cause of his death. Mr. Dampf had just finished unloading a load of wheat at the elevator and remarked to Mr. Cremer that he was not feeling very well that afternoon having a severe pain across his chest. The two gentlemen started for the business section of the town when Mr. Dampf became worse and was taken to a room in the hotel. Dr. C.S. Glover was sent for immediately and upon arrival administered several stimulants, but to no avail. Mr. Dampf died in less than twenty minutes after taking sick. Deceased was a good and kind husband and a loving father, a good neighbor and a good citizen and his death will not only be mourned by the immediate family but by the large number of sorrowing friends who gathered around his grave to pay him their last sad respect. Mr. Dampf was 63 years of age and leaves a wife and ten children to mourn his death. The children are: Mrs. Joseph Sabalkey, of Spring Garden; Mrs. Chas. Hitts, of Lohman; Kate, Maggie, Mary, Nesie, Tracy, John, Clemens and Jacob Jr., all of whom reside at the home place two miles northeast of Russellville. Besides these Mr. Dampf leaves three brothers and two sisters and three half brothers. They are: Peter, of Russellville; Garrett, of Corticelli; Phillip, of Versailles; Mrs. Mike Mueller, of Lohman; and Mrs. Herman Brunning of near Russellville. The half brothers are: John, Mat and Wm. Gratz of near Russellville. Deceased was a consistent member of the Catholic Church from which place the funeral was preached at 9:30 o'clock Wednesday morning by Rev. Wehner, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Catholic Cemetery near the church.

Russellville Rustler, Friday, December 13, 1907 Edwin P. Linhardt, a young man 28 years old, died at the home of his mother last Sunday of lockjaw and blood poison which developed from an injury to one hand which he sustained last Thursday while operating a corn shredder. Dr. C.O. Davidson of Jefferson City was called from that place last Sunday in consultation with Dr. O.E. Amos of Lohman, but they were unable to save the young man's life. Mr. Linhardt was a live, energetic, honest young man, much liked by all who knew him. We all must bow our heads to Him who doeth all things well, but it seems hard, indeed to give up such an energetic young man as Edwin. Besides an aged mother, he leaves two brothers and three sisters. Mrs. Henry Knernschield of Elston; Mrs. Fred Knernschield, Lohman; and Mrs. Wm. Geminhardt of Jefferson City. Otto who lives near Lohman, and Nick who is employed at Kautsch & Linhardts at Lohman, are the surviving brother

Russellville Rustler, Friday,December 6, 1907 Johnnie, the seventeen months old son of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Reed of High Point, was fatally burned on Thanksgiving afternoon while trying to put out a small blaze caused by a match. Cyrus Reed, uncle of the baby was doing some work at the barn where the baby had wandered from the house. Mr. Reed, after lighting his pipe, threw the match to the ground where it set fire to a small bunch of hay. The baby began stomping the fire when its clothes caught on fire, and despite the efforts of its uncle and father was so badly burned that it died three hours later. Dr. Popejoy of High Point was summoned, but to no avail. The father's hands were seriously burned in an attempt to extinguish the flames. Funeral services were conducted at the residence on Friday afternoon and the remains were layed to rest in the Gray Cemetery near that place. Besides a long list of relatives the mother and father and two little sisters mourn the loss of the little one.
