April 5, 1913 (Special to State Journal) The Badly decomposed body of a man about forty five years of age was found this afternoon four miles southeast of Exeter in a field owned by Albert Biba. The Body fully dressed in rough clothing and overcoat, a cloth cap on the head and mittens on the hands, was found lying face downward in the shallow pool of water. A deep gash in the right side of the neck indicates that death occurred in a violent manner. A number of papers, pocketbook, fountain pen, a cheap watch and a small sum of money were found in the pockets of his clothes. Among the papers was a subscription receipt number 8298, issued to H. J. Moyer, Sprague, Neb., by the Lincoln Evening News for one months subscription, some being undated and unsigned. A railroad freight receipt indicates that H. J. Moyer moved from Lincoln to Archer, October 2, 1912. A telephone message to Archer Elicited the information that Moyer had left there several months ago and that his present whereabouts were unknown. The evidence also indicates that Moyer was married ma n and has a family which the authorities are endeavoring to locate. Coroner M. R. Gibbons impaneled a jury, the verdict being "that deceased, H. J. Moyer, come to his death by a wound from a knife in the hands of persons unknown." In view of thi s verdict the investigation has been placed in the hands of the sheriff of Fillmore county. The man had been struck a severe blow on the right side of the head, the force of the same causing the left eye to bulge out. Those who examined the body say that it would have been impossible for this to have been self-inflicted. Henry J. Moyer was a laborer and farm hand and had worked in Lincoln and Lancaster county for some time. His wife has for the past six or seven weeks been employed at the home of a farmer a few males north of Lincoln and was last evening apprais ed of her husband's death. She came to Lincoln at once and it was learned that Moyer had left her on January 25, not saying where he was going. The last heard of him he was working in a farm near Archer. Mrs. Moyer was apparently not surprised to learn of the death of Moyer who, it is said had acted strangely for some time. He had threatened to take his life and on a previous occasion when she heard that the dead body of a man had been found she went to see if it were not that of her husband. Both Mr. and Mrs. Moyer have been previously married. He has a son Howard, sixteen years of age, and has also three step-sons. So far as known there was no motive for murder. Those who knew him state that he had to their knowledge no enemies , and the body had not been robbed. News of the finding of the body was communicated to Mrs. Moyer by telephone and she came at once to Lincoln to the home of her father, Harvey Wilson, 2010 O. Street.-Lincoln Journal, April 6. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Article #2 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< NEBRASKA SIGNAL, GENEVE, FILMORE COUNTY April 10 1913 Stranger's Throat Cut Henry J. Moyer's Body Found on the Biba Farm In Liberty Township Saturday The dead body of a man was found Saturday about noon in a draw on the Albert Biba farm in Liberty township by some boys who were out hunting. The authorities were notified and came and removed the body from the pool of water in which it was lying and Coroner Gibbons immediately Impaneled a jury and held an inquest . The finding of the jury was that the man had "come to his death by a wound from a knife in the hands of persons unknown" Papers on the dead man proved him to be H. J. Moyer of Archer, Neb. There was a receipt issued by the Lincoln Evening News for a month's subscription, some receipted grocery bills and a bill of lading. He also carried a cheap watch and had $2.5 6 in money. The body was found lying face down ward in a small pool of water in a draw which runs across the Biba farm. The arms were outstretched. One leg was all that protruded from the water. The man had his cap on, pulled down over his ears, golf gloves were on his hands and he had an overcoat and overshoes on. There was a deep gash about two inches long on the right side of his throat and his right eye was discolored and swollen, while the left one bulged out. A search was made for an instrument by witch the deed could have been committed had the case been suicide but none could be found. The wound was deep and was not smooth enough to have been made with a razor, which the man is said to have carrie d when he left home. There was blood on his coat and vest but none on his gloves. Moyer was found to have been a resident of Lincoln and Sprague before he moved to Archer. His wife was located at Lincoln and she came to Exeter, where the body had been taken by Coroner Gibbons, Saturday night. She stated that Mr. Moyer had lef t their home at Archer on the night on January 25 and she had not seen or heard of him since. She waited three days for him to return, then went to her parents' home at Lincoln, later going to work as a housekeeper on the Cheney Farm a few mile s north of Lincoln. Mrs. Moyer talked freely of the came to County Attorney Gelselman Sunday afternoon. She stated that she had been a housekeeper by profession and went to Sprague to take that position for Mr. Moyer on May 6, 1912 and that they were married May 27 , 1912. Mr. Moyer had a divorced wife and Mrs. Moyer had divorced a former husband, Both had children. Mr. Moyer Mr. Moyer was a carpenter by trade and moved from Sprague to Archer for work. Their married life was very happy, according to Mrs. Moyer. Mr. Moyer was a quiet man, in no wise quarrel some. He was forty-one years of age and his wife twenty-eight. Mr. Moyer had a son, Howard, age seventeen, who was very wild and reckless . He quarreled frequently with his father and worried him a great deal. Mrs. Moyer also had trouble with the boy, who treated her very badly. A week before Moyer left home he and his son had a scuffling match when the boy refused to mind. The night he left home, Moyer went to town about 7 o'clock and did not return until 4 a.m. Then went into the bedroom and put on his gray suit. His wife asked him where he was going and he replied: "Nobody cares where I go." Then he went to his trunk and got some pictures and wrapped them in a paper. He also took a suit of underclothes and a razor and mug and went to the kitchen where he got his shotgun. He wrapped all these things in a gunny sack. His wife went to him and tried to kiss him but he pushed her away. She said, "All right if you don't want to kiss me." He then seized her and kissed her and burst into tears. He seemed to be nervous and flighty. He went on out, however, and Mr s. Moyer did not see him again alive. The son had left Archer that morning for Perry, IA, to visit his mother and this was all Mrs. Moyer could think of that would unbalance her husband. However, he had at times despondent streaks when he woul d cry for a long time. On the body was a card written to his wife but never mailed. It began, "Beloved wife," but was evidently written under excitement as words were misspelled and left out and Mrs. Moyer said he was very well educated. The card said something abou t trouble and maybe he would end in the pen so he thought he would take his own life. Mr. Moyer had no money saved up to speak of. Mrs. Moyer thought he was a member of the Modern Woodmen but did not know for certain weather his policy was paid up. She did not have the least suspicion of anybody who would kill him. The body was buried at Exeter Sunday afternoon. It would have been taken to Lincoln but it's condition prevented. All the evidence in the case has been placed before Sheriff Ashton, who will make as investigation. County Attorney Geiselman spent Sunday afternoon taking the testimony of Mrs. Moyer and making such other inquiries as seemed necessary. So far as the authorities have expressed themselves the case seems to be one of suicide. There is nothing ab out the case as at present developed to indicate motive for the crime. Those who think it may have been murder point to the following facts as suspicious: The Instrument with which the cut on the throat was made could not be found, but the man might have walked several feet before falling. The right eye was discolored as though the man had been struck a blow and the left eye protruded. There was no blood on the man's gloves and it was argued that there would have been had he cut his own throat while his gloves were on his hands. The small sum of money the man had was not disturbed. Motive seemed entirely lacking. ____________________ PLAINLY SUICIDE On Monday a knife that had been overlooked at the corner's inquest was found in a pocket in Moyer's overcoat. The knife was open and it's long thin blade was covered with blood. No doubt now exists that Moyer Committed Suicide. Had the knife been found at first there would have been no doubt at any time. Moyer had some papers in his pocket, including a letter to an employment agency and some receipted bills. There was also a postal card on which the writing was so dim that some of the words could not be made out until they were put under a glass . County Attorney Geiselman has deciphered the card as follows: "Loved Wife; Why I have taken my life, I do not think I am to blame for all of this trouble so I feel assure I am going to the pen and to end all misery I think best. So always remember I loved you and the children so good-bye." The card had been written with a fountain pen and the writing corresponded with the writing in Moyer's memorandum book. The county attorney considers the case closed. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Article #3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Fillmore County News April 10 1913 Exeter WAS IT MURDER OR SUICIDE CASE? While out hunting ducks last Saturday, April 5, Jimmey Biba saw a man laying in the water about 100 rods north east of Mr. Biba's house. Jimmey ran to the house and told his father what he saw. Mr. Biba got up at once from the dinner table and went to the place. Supervisor Den Songster was at once notified and then the coroner, M.R. Gibbons, was called to interview the body. The body was lying face downward, with outstretched arms almost entirely covered with water, with the exceptions of a small portion of his head and one foot.

The coroner finally located his wife about six miles northwest of Lincoln, working on a farm for a man by the name of Chas. Cheney.

I do not think I am to blame for all this trouble, so I feel sure I am going to the pen and to end all misery, I think best, so always remember I loved you and your children so good bye."

You are correct that Arenia I Sons, the daughter of Martin and Sarah Jane Neal Sons married Marshall Palmer Robinett. He died 3 Nov. 1909. I do not have marriage date, but she married a George Whittle then later Frank Benjamin Kissinger. Frank died Oct 4, 1957 and she is listed as his wife. They lived in Swedeborg, Pulaski Co. "Aunt" Rene is buried in the Robinett Cemetery next to her first husband Marshall Palmer Robinett under the name Arrenia Kissinger, born 3 Feb 1884 - died 12 Aug 1961. I do not know when this George Whittle died, but he was alive when Sarah Jane Neal Sons died in 1921. George's daughter Lou married Roy Rodden. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Nancy & Jerry Thompson Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 4:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MOMILLER] George Whittle - obituary Is the Spearman Cemetery also known as Rankin-Wright Cemetery? 1900 Census has Martin Sons and wife Sarah J. (living a few doors away from George C. Whittle) with a daughter Arena (middle initial not discernable). Arena's birth date is Feb 1884 which would make her 36 years old in 1920. It would make her 19 years old in January 1903 when Rena I. Sons married "Marshall P." Robinett. Marshall (or Merrell) lived next door to the Sons family in 1900. Merril L. Robinett married Stella Workman 13 Sep 1903 so if he married Rena, it would have been a brief union The 1910 census lists Lou E. born about 1905. This child is still living at home in 1920 when Rena is now the wife. The conclusion being that Lou E. is the child of George's first wife. I couldn't find marriage information for Rena and George or for Rena and a possible 3rd husband. She would have been fairly young when George died. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paddy Buckley Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 1:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MOMILLER] George Whittle - obituary Perhaps not Nancy. George C Whittle's first wife Sarah L J was alive for the 1910 Census at Glaze, Miller Co age 48 b Illinois, mother of 10 kids, 9 alive (and all enumerated in 1910). By the 1920 Census for Glaze, George had a new wife Rena 33 ( in 1930 she was Arsenia 46 first married at 19). I couldn't find a death certificate for Sarah Whittle, but maybe 1917 was the correct year. Nor could I find the marriage of George to Arsenia. According to Ancestry Search (LDS) George was buried in Spearman Cemetery Iberia.

There is a death certificate for Sarilda Whittle, George's mother, showing she died in 1917. Perhaps the researcher got the two confused??
