Help Needed Reading Cemeteries…
All members are invited to help us finish our current cemetery project. For a couple of summers we have been attempting to update the cemetery books we began publishing nearly 25 years ago.
We need people willing to re-walk cemeteries read in the last 4 years looking for new names, new stones, and added death dates. If you are able to read a cemetery near you, or Forest Hill near Napoleon, contact Bill Latta (see previous column).
We have been fortunate to have extra volunteers come out to help and are making good progress. THANKS!

BAD CITIZENS – Walter Hathaway and Daniel Connell behind the Bars.
Two Desperate Characters Given a Workhouse Sentence. — It will be at least thirty days before Walter HATHAWAY, better known as “Punk,” of North Baltimore, and Daniel CONNELL, of Perrysburg, bother anybody. They are not in the Toledo workhouse serving out a fine and cost on the charge of assault. They were lucky to get off at that, and may yet be brought face to face with a more serious charge when their time expires.
The beginning of the trouble started Friday evening last when a young boy and his sister, named COLENDER, of Holgate, hoboed into town, claiming to be enroute for Lima hunting work. They slept in a box car that night near the C. H. & D. coal dock, and Saturday morning started on their way to Lima on foot down the track. HATHAWAY and CONNELL followed them and overtook them near William WALKER’S farm. Just what occurred is not known, but the boy and girl ran over into a field, followed by the two men, to where Mr. WALKER was plowing com and asked for protection.
When questioned one of the men said they were detectives and wanted the girl. By this time, Mr. WALKER recognized the boy and girl, being pretty well acquainted at Holgate, and he told the fellows if they were officers they must show their authority before they could have her. Quite an ugly discussion arose in which they declared they would kill Mr. WALKER, but he succeeded in driving them off the place and they started back to town, while the boy and girl proceeded on their way.
[Missing] giving the matter a second [missing] not fit subjects fo run at large, and he started for town to have them arrested. He met Marshal WOOD and informed him of the facts and after a lively chase the fellows were arrested and lodged in jail. It was evident from all the circumstances that he feJlows intended to rape the girl, who is said to be about 16 years of age, and the marshal was started after the boy and girl, so the charges could be preferred, but the officer returned several hours later without them, as they could not be found.
The prisoners were held until Monday, when Mr. WALKER filed charges against them of assault. To this they plead guilty and were fined, and costs to the amount of $13.85, in the absence of the wherewith they were sent to the workhouse. What became of the boy and girl is not known. There is no doubt but that the fellows intended to ravish the girl, but the reports went out to the daily press to that effect are wide of the mark.
Both men have served a term in the pen–CONNELL for attempting to rape a woman at Perrysburg, and HATHAWAY for highway robbery. If the boy and girl can be found a more serious charge may be placed against them when their time is up.
STOLE A GRIP-But It Evidently Did Not Contain What They Wanted
Saturday night as B & O train No. 6 was at the station someone entered the B & O baggage room and carried away a grip. Sunday morning, when Mr. Wm. MARKHAM went to his barn to feed, he found a grip in the stall with one of the horses.
He reported the affair to the depot officials, and it was soon learned that the grip belonged to Mr. David HOSKINSON, of this city [Deshler]. It was filled with sample gloves and mits – one of a kind, which is no doubt the reason the thieves abandoned it, as they could not very well dispose of or use them. Dave was glad to get them back and rewarded Mr. MARKHAM for his honesty.

Never Too Old – An Aged Couple Married at the Edge of the Grave
Jeremiah BOWERS, aged 80, and Eliza A. SHORLEY, aged 72, were granted a Henry C’ounty marriage license on Tuesday last. The marriage is a romantic one. The now aged couple were lovers and schoolmates, and they were engaged to be married at that time, but a quarrel arose and the engagement was broken. The couple drifted apart and both married. The two recently met, and when it was learned that BOWERS’ wife was dead and Mrs. SHORLEY was again single a reconciliation followed and they concluded to launch on the matrimonial sea together. BOWERS recently received about $1,000 back pension, and an effort was made by some of his relatives to have a guardian appointed for him, but the effort failed.

Several years ago a three-volume set of family scrapbooks was donated to our society. The items were cut from at least one German-language newspaper from this area, but not dated or identified. It is believed the articles

space permits. Vol. I translation is completed.
