The New York Times, 21 June 1903 SHOT HIS DYING VICTIM --- Assailant of New Rochelle Watchman Made Murder Sure --- Supposed Burglar Killed Employe of Wealthy Residents-- Italian Suspect Held at Port Chester NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y., June 20.--Maurice Ahearn, a private watchman in Rochelle Park, was murdered this morning by a supposed burglar. While on duty about 1:15 o'clock this morning the watchman saw a man with a bag over his shoulder, and stopping him asked what he carried. The stranger replied that it was none of Ahearn's business. The men came to blows, and a few seconds later several shots were fired. Residents of the park who were aroused by the firing hastened from their houses and found Ahearn lying in Manhattan Avenue. A bullet had entered his body over the heart, and he died soon afterward. The shooting was in front of the residence of Joseph P. Brown, Vice President of the Knickerbocker Trust. Dr. Johnson, who had been sitting up with a sick friend, heard all that passed between the murderer and his victim. He says that the men grappled and rolled on the ground. After a short struggle the watchman regained his feet, and kept a grip on his opponent's collar. The stranger drew a revolver and, placing it against Ahearn's breast, fired, the bullet entering the watchman's body over the heart. Dr. Johnson says that the man after having fired the shot put his revolver back into his pocket and walked away slowly. After going a short distance he returned to where Ahearn was lying, and, placing the revolver to the watchman's neck, fired a second shot. Then he fired a third shot into Ahearn's right side. After firing the third shot the murderer fled. Dr. Johnson rushed from the house, and on reaching Ahearn found that the man was dying. He hastened back to the house and telephoned to the police. Sergt. Kelly sent several policemen to the scene of the murder and others to the railroad stations. He also telephoned to the police stations of nearby places to keep a lookout for the fugitive. Ahearn was thirty-two years old and unmarried. He had been employed by the residents of Rochelle Park, which is a fashionable section of the town, for several years. Col. Edward Lyman Bill, President of the Police Board, has offered a reward of $1,000 for the capture of the murderer. Of this sum, $500 is offered on behalf of the city and $500 on behalf of the Rochelle Park Association. The Knights of Columbus, of which Ahearn was a member, have sent to Boston for a bloodhound, which will be put on the trail of the murderer. The Italian arrested in Port Chester has been brought here, and the police, after investigating his story, said that they believed that he had accounted for his whereabouts at the time of the shooting, though he is still held. The real murderer may be hiding in New Rochelle. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dennis Ahern | Middlesex County Massachusetts Newspaper Abstracts Acton, Massachusetts | http://www.newspaperabstracts.com/MA/Middlesex/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Spirit of the Times Batavia, Genesee Co., NY May 15 1826 MARRIED. In Batavia, by Rev. Mr. TAGGART, Mr. John CHATFIELD, Merchant of Batavia, to Miss Mary Ann Moore, of New Lebanon Springs. DIED. In this town, Caroline, daughter of Israel RATHBURN, aged 2 years. At Middlebury, Vt. 27th Jan. Mrs. Mabilia PORTER, aged 27. Happy are they who die in the Lord, and among their friends; thrice happy those who on a death bed are assured of both.--Communicated. SUICIDE. A young man Thos. SMITH, a printer, employed in the office of the Colonial Advocate, but lately from Ithaca, state of New York, and about 20 years of age, committed suicide by drowning himself at the mouth of the river Don, at this place on Sunday morning last. Before leaping into the river, he took off his hat and coat, putting his pocket-book and watch into his hat, and then leaped in, in the presence of two boys who were fishing convenient to the spot. No reason can as yet be assigned for this fatal transaction, the young man appearing on that morning at the breakfast table of his boarding house, apparently of sound mind and in good health and spirits. * INDIAN MURDERS. We are informed by a gentleman who arrived here on board the steam-boat Mexico, on the 8th inst. from Prairie du Chien, that, on the 22d of March, about nine miles below Fort Crawford, Mr. MITOD, his wife, and three children, were murdered by a party of Indians, supposed to be the Winebagoes. Not satisfied with the lives of the unfortunate victims, they burnt the camp with a part of the dead and committed on the body of the murdered female, who was in a state of pregnancy, deeds savage barbarity, too shocking to be related. Mr. M. it is believed, made a manly defence, as two of the savages were buried the next morning after the occurence, supposed to have died of their wounds. * A FISH STORY. It is stated in a public print, that, "at Youngs Landing on the Potomack, on the 19th alt., Mr. WILBURN caught three hundred thousand herring at one haul." Who counted them? * A DUCK STORY. A Missouri paper says that during a violent storm, in that state, five hundred wild ducks were killed in one flock. The hail was driven with such force by the wind, that many of their nests were entirely cut off. * A man in Boston is exhibiting live Chameleons from Magadore. The Advertiser states that the animal has not been known to take any kind of food for these last four months; this is considered as a proof that he "Eats the air for food." His tongue is composed of solid white flesh and is nearly five inches long. --U.S. Gazette. * LITERATURE. A new novel, to be entitled, "The New York Yankee, or tales of the First Settlers on the Tioughnioga," is preparing for the press in Cortland village, in this state. Mr. Wm. W. PHELPS, the author, is represented as being among the accursed of fortune; and as having resolved in this manner, if possible, to gain reparations for the many evils with which he is afflicted. We wish him success. --Noah's Advocate. * ROBBERY! On Sunday afternoon last as Mr. Leonard E. DOWNEY was returning from the Indian village, in Erie co. to Buffalo, he was attacked by two men and an Indian who took him into the woods, tied him to a tree, and rifled his pockets of 270 dollars, and then left him. He was released by an Indian shortly after, who was attracted to the spot by his cries. Mr. DOWNEY was a stranger, who had arrived at Buffalo only the day before. It is hoped the daring villains will soon be brought to justice. -Batavia Advocate. * submitted by L.C. Schmidt

Mr. WASHBURN's business of selling perfumes, extracts and essences, takes him from home much of the time, and it was during his absence that the man COONS, according to the neighbors, came and stole, not only the wife, but about everything else portable in the house, hiring a man to cart the goods to Lyons. Mr. WASHBURN states that he received a letter from his wife, dated May 1st, which expressed the hope that he would soon return home, as she was so lonesome without him and missed him so. The letter was so pathetic that he cut his trip short and hastened home. When he arrived the next day after receiving the letter he found his home deserted, and quite largely denuded. By the aid of a detective he traced the guilty pair to Clyde, but at this point last trace of them again. Mr. WASHBURN is not so anxious to secure the return of his wife, but does want the property she carried away with her. THAT ABANDONED CHILD. Identification of Mother and Father — Former a Young Girl.

JUNE 1, 1900 Page 6 MAURER'S APPEAL DROPPED. Widow Will Receive the Entire Estate According to Terms of Will. It has been decided to discontinue the appeal in the contest over the will of the late Edward W. MAURER. This will result in the entire estate of $65,000 going to the widow, Louise Proctor MAURER. When Mr. Maurer died and application was made for the admission of his will to probate it was discovered that he had made a second will. In each will the entire estate was left to the widow, but the second and later will was made just previous to a trip to Europe made by the testator. This will also provided for the inheriting by the testator's widow of the entire estate, should she survive him, and in case of her death at the same time as the testator's mother, or should she be dead to his mother. This second will contained a clause revoking the first will, and the contention was made that Mr. MAURER died intestate. Objections to the admission of the first will were made by several relatives and Surrogate BENTON finally handed down a decision admitting the first will to probate, holding that the intent of the testator to give the entire estate to his wife was taken from the decision, and it is this appeal that has been dropped. ONE KILLED — TWO INJURED Result of an Explosion at Eastman Kodak Works. Explosion Caused by Alcoholic Vapors Becoming Ignited — Building Damaged. R.G.

Ambulances were called from the Homeopathic and City Hospitals and word was sent to the morgue for the attendants there, the dead wagon and a coroner.

Reporters were told to wait until the superintendent of the works was at liberty. They said he was the only one authorized to give out information concerning accidents at the works. Reporters of The Union were dispatched to the scene of the explosion as soon as the fact became known in the city. When the reporters arrived, Dr. Edmund C. BODDY of No. 418 Lake avenue, was attending the injured men. Coroner SIBLEY was also present. The building in which the explosion occurred is located at the north end of the company's land, about on a line with the main office. It was two stories high and was partitioned off into small rooms by light wooden walls. When the explosion occurred a number of men were all knocked down and the wooden partitions were destroyed. Considerable valuable machinery was damaged. Neither of the injured men will die. They were taken to their homes after being attended by Dr. BODDY. EMMALISSA ANDREWS' ESTATE.

Dropped Her Children From Third Story Into an Awning. Mrs. Jacob BURRY performed a deed yesterday that stamped her as a woman whose bravery is tempered by excellent judgment. She dropped her three children into a partly opened awning from her home in the third story of a building at No. ?4 Hanover street, in order to save them from what appeared to be certain death by burning. It was about 9 o'clock yesterday morning when Simon LAZARUS, who works in a grocery store on the ground floor of the building, heard Mrs. BURRY screaming fire. He ran up to her apartment and saw that a small oil stove was ablaze and the carpet on fire. He picked up the stove and ran to the door intending to throw it into the street. The flames were borne back into his face and he was compelled to throw it down the stairs, which were set on fire. Mrs. BURRY was frantic with alarm and seeing that the best avenue of escape had been cut off ran to the front window. Before she could be stopped she had leaned from the widow and, after dropping the three children on the half opened awning in front of the store, had thrown herself after them. Her weight caused her to break through the awning to the sidewalk below. She was uninjured, however, and the children had not a scratch on them. In the meantime LAZARUS had gone back into the kitchen and tried to extinguish the burning carpet. He also warned Jacob BROWN and family and Mrs. SAMUELS and her children, who live on the second floor. Some one had sent in an alarm from box 62 corner of Hudson avenue and Rhine street. The department easily extinguished the flames. They did not do any great damage beyond burning the carpet. Mrs. BURRY was congratulated by the firemen on her coolness in the midst of her fright and LAZARUS was also complimented on his bravery. He was painfully though not seriously burned about the hands and face. LYMAN AUSTIN'S DEATH. Traveling Salesman Died Suddenly at City Hospital — Certificate Granted.

>From the Rochester Daily Union and Advertiser Rochester, Monroe County, New York MAY 10, 1900 Page 6 (Did not get title of article) Through the failure of Undertaker William ROSSENBACH to secure a burial certificate in time, Coroner SIBLEY was yesterday morning obliged to interrupt the funeral of a young girl at St. Patrick's Cathedral, remove the body to the morgue and hold an autopsy. It was found at the autopsy that the girl died a natural death, of pneumonia, and the burial certificate was then granted. The dead girl was named Catherine KELLY and resided at No. 8 White street. It was found at the autopsy that the body had been embalmed, and as this makes it almost impossible to determine the cause of death by autopsy, Commissioner CUTLER of the department of public safety this morning promulgated an ordinance compelling all undertakers who are about to embalm dead persons to file a notice at the health office. In the case of the KELLY girl it was state by Dr. GOLER this morning that Undertaker ROSSENBACH did not apply at the health office for the burial permit required by law until the funeral was in progress at the cathedral. Then he went to Dr. GOLER's office and the registrar refused to give the burial permit under the circumstances, it being thought that the permit should have been applied for before. The registrar told Mr. ROSSENBACH that burial permits could not be granted offhand without evidence as to the cause of death. The registrar immediately called up Coroner SIBLEY on the telephone and notified him of the refusal to issue the burial permit, stating that the funeral was in progress at the cathedral. It was stated to the coroner that the KELLY girl was apparently in good health on Saturday last and that her death occurring on Monday, was very sudden, and that as the certificate of burial was not applied for until the last moment he had better handle the case and ascertain the cause of death. Coroner SIBLEY at once went to the cathedral, stopped the funeral and had the girl's body taken to the morgue, as stated. The autopsy was made by the coroner's physicians and Dr. GOLER late yesterday afternoon and it was found that death was due to ptomaine poisoning caused by pneumonia. Upon the interruption of the funeral services the mourners, of course, were obliged to disperse. Dr. GOLER this morning said in regard to the case and the new ordinance issued by Commissioner CUTLER: "We found that the girl's body had been embalmed, but in this case it was possible to trace the death to pneumonia. However, it is very difficult to tell whether a person embalmed has died of natural causes or not. In case of poisoning if the body is embalmed, the poisons in the fluid used make it almost impossible to tell whether poison was administered before death. I have known one murderer to escape in Rochester because the body of the victim was embalmed and it was impossible to get incriminating evidence, although the physicians who performed the autopsy were certain poison had been given in the food. "The KELLY girl," continue Dr. GOLER, "was alive and well Saturday night and attended a dance, and it was only using ordinary precautions not to grant a burial certificate when it was not applied for until the funeral was in progress. As it turned out the KELLY girl died from natural causes, but we had no reason to be sure of this until the autopsy was made. The ordinance issued to-day by Commissioner CUTLER will hereafter prevent embalming by undertakers until a burial permit is granted." The new ordinance is as follows: "On and after June 1, 1900, it shall be the duty of every undertaker and embalmer who shall be called to embalm the dead body of any human being, to present to this office a legibly written, full and complete return of the death properly certified by the attending physician or one of the coroners, in accordance with the ordinance of this department, together with a written application stating upon the direction of the nearest friends or relatives, it is the purpose of the undertaker and embalmer to embalm the body. Without such application or notice to the health department accompanying the death certificate, it shall be unlawful for an undertaker to embalm the dead body of any human being. Every person violating the provisions of this ordinance shall forfeit and pay a penalty of one hundred dollars. "The above is hereby adopted as one of the health ordinances of the city of...

Upon application of Attorney George FLECKENSTEIN, Dr. V.J. RUPERT was this afternoon appointed a committee of the property of Augusta RAAB, a woman who was recently adjudged incompetent to manage her own affairs. Dr. RUPERT's bond was fixed at $2,000, and he qualified in that amount. Mrs. RAAB has considerable property, which is in the courts. Some time ago this property, which consists of a house and lot and $1,000 in the Monroe County Savings Bank, was obtained by Mrs. RAAB. The money in the bank was in the joint names of Mr. and Mrs. RAAB, but Mrs. RAAB drew out the money and re-invested it in her individual name. RAAB did not like this, and brought suit to recover the money. This suit is still in the courts. While the preliminary litigation was going on it was found that Mrs. RAAB was acting queerly, and in the investigation which followed it was learned that Mrs. RAAB is insane. During the examination into her sanity, Mrs. RAAB was placed on the stand to testify. She told a rambling story. She said that a very wealthy man left her $2,000,000 in money which was buried in the earth. This money could only be obtained by praying at midnight, and burning a candle. She did this, and the treasure was unlocked, also the soul of the dead man. She claimed that her husband and two other men had schemed to get the money away from her, but that she had prevented them. In addition she told how a man had murdered two young women, and that the bodies of the young people could be found in a certain lot. She also told of other vast legacies left to her, all of which her husband and others were trying to take away from her. The jury did not leave their seats, but declared her insane upon the spot.

Coroner SIBLEY this morning granted a certificate of death from chronic kidney disease in the case of Mrs. Sarah A. DIX of No. 325 West avenue. Mrs. DIX died n Monday and it is alleged that her death is due to the vagaries of the Christian Science cult. According to the investigation made by the coroner, Mrs. DIX became ill some time ago. She is a believer in Christian Science and it is said persistently refused to call in a physician. A few hours before her death, however, she did allow one to be summoned. The physician was unable to aid her. She died before any medicines had been prescribed. The physician, who is a woman, made out a certificate of death from heart failure and hemorrhage. Application was made to Health Officer GOLER for a burial permit, based upon the certificate of death. Dr. GOLER refused to issue one. Then the physician made out another certificate in which a different cause of death was given. When the second certificate of death was presented at the office of the Health Board yesterday Dr. GOLER was out of town and those in charge refused to grant a permit. Coroner SIBLEY was notified by the authorities and started an investigation. He consulted with the physician and she agreed to a post mortem examination. Coroner SIBLEY had Coroner's Physician M.E.

The report gave as the cause of death chronic kidney disease and not heart failure or hemorrhage. The coroner granted a certificate of death to that effect this morning. It is alleged that not only was Mrs. DIX a Christian Scientist, but that the physician practices it, too. She is regularly registered in the county clerk's office and has a license to practice medicine. It is said that she has admitted that she made only one call upon Mrs. DIX and that it was at the last moment, and that she did not prescribe any medicines.
