May 25.—William Cessna died at his home here at 8:10 o'clock this morning after an illness since last Thursday from pneumonia. The end had been expected, but it came sooner than was anticipated, Mr. Cessna passing very suddenly. His illness rendered him somewhat delirious, and he refused to stay in bed. He was sitting in a chair and asked to be put in bed. He then took some medicine and died without a struggle. The decedent was born November 7, 1822, in Medford County, Pennsylvania. His father was Evan Cessna. On May 18, 1850, the son married Sarah Jane Hawkins in Stark County, O. This union brought five children, one of whom, Mrs. Abe Smith, died in Ohio about twenty years ago. The surviving children are: John W. Cessna of Chanute, Kas., Sarah Amelia, wife of Adam Yeazel of north of Homer; Martha Ellen, wife of Marion Tibbetts of this place and William L. D. Cessna of Adrian, Mich. For several years after his marriage the decedent followed his trade as a brick and stone mason in Mahoning County, O. In 1856 he moved to Marshall County, Ind., and in 1875 he came to Vermilion County and purchased land. He resided in that country until three years ago, when he divided all except 240 acres of his land among his children and moved to Homer, where he purchased the late home on Coffeen and Southeast Street. His land at that time amounted to 1,016 acres. Mrs. Cessna died in 1864 and Mr. Coffeen married Mrs. Lucina Melser on January 29, 1865. The second wife and three children survive, as follows: Rosa I., wife of H. H. Price; Charles M. Cessna, and Mary M., wife of Mortimer Current of Danville. The decedent had never been a member of any church or fraternal organization except the I. O. O. F., and his membership in that order was dropped a number of years ago. The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon from the home, Rev. W. D. Fairchilds, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, preaching. Interment will be at the G.A.R. cemetery." - The Champaign County News, Wednesday, May 27, 1908, page 2 (Transcribed by the Homer Historical Society) | Cessna, William (I2822)

| 19 | #142 John Hansson Steelman (Sahakitko, Cecil County< Maryland): The eldest son of Hans Mansson and Ella Stille (see #54), John Hansson, Later John Hans Steelman, was born in 1655 at Aronameck and then moved with his parents to Senamensing, Burlington county. In the mid 1680s he recrossed the Delaware to New Castle County where he married Maria, youngest daughter of John Andersson Stalcop (see #101). In partnership with his brother-in-law Peter Stalcop *(#150), he obtained land on the east side of Red Clay Creek and embarked on an Indian trading career which induced him to move to Sahakitko, where he resided in 1693. In 1895 he was naturalized by Maryland and by 1697 was Maryland's chief interpreter in its dealings with the Indians of the upper Chesapeake Bay and Pennsylvania. He also negotiated important Indian treaties for Pennsylvania in 1701 and 1737. As his Indian customers migrated westward, so did John Hans Steelman. By 1724 he was a resident of the Monocacy River valley in present Carroll County, Maryland. In the 1730s he moved into Lancaster (now Adams) County, Pennsylvania. In 1740, at the age of 85, he testified for the Penn family in its boundary dispute with Maryland and was rewarded by a grant of 200 acres. At one time, around 1700, John Hans Steelman gave the impression of having considerable wealth. He provided £320 for the purchase of land for the church at Christina and for the building of Holy Trinity Church, £220 by loans and £100 by gift, receiving in return the choicest pews and the promise that he would be buried within the church. By the time of his death in 1749 west of the Susquehanna in present Adams County he had little left. His meager possessions were sold at an estate auction for £23. His household of five in 1693 included his wife Maria and two sons, John and Mans. Peter Hans Steelman, another son or a grandson, was the principal purchaser of his property at the estate sale.

| 28 | 1 December 1898 No Trace Found of Charles M. Hedges Whereabouts of the Missing Attorney Still Shrouded in Mystery – Police Are Puzzled. “Where is Charles M. Hedges? Has he met with foul play? These are the questions which the police and the fiends of the missing man are asking themselves. His whereabouts is as deep a mystery as when he first dropped out of sight last Sunday. The police are puzzled over th case. As told exclusively in yesterday’s Times, Charles M. Hedges was a manager of the American Law association in the Nelson building and disappeared last Sunday afternoon. He was last seen at the Leland hotel in Liberty as he was starting to the depot to catch the 7:45 train over the Hannibal and St. Joseph road to this city. He lived with his wife and 7-months-old child at 1622 Broadway and went to Liberty last Sunday morning to visit his uncle, the Rev. Mr. Vawter, pastor of the Christian church of that town. His uncle was in Platte City and was not to return until the next day so Hedges went to the Leland hotel to stay until train time. He left the hotel about ten minutes before the time for his train to start, saying that he “must go home and see his wife and baby.” That was the last anyone remembers seeing of him. Hedges rented desk room in the law office of Charles H. Winston in the Nelson building and was well known to the business men of the city as a collector. Mr. Winston can find no trace of Hedges, and he believes that the missing man has been foully dealt with. Last night he said: “I am doing everything in my power to find Hedges. I knew him well and can not account for his continued absence.” Hedges brother, the Rev. T.A. Hedges, a Christian minister at Lancaster, Mo., was in the city all day yesterday trying to find the missing man. The conductor and brakeman of the Hannibal and St. Joseph train on which Hedges is supposed to have come from Liberty last Sunday were seen and questioned, but neither remembered anything of a man who answered the description of Hedges. The Rev. Mr. Hedges left for Lancaster last night and will wait until something turns up. Hedges is 25 years old, of medium height and weight and was well dressed when he disappeared. His friends say that he left money on deposit here in the National Bank of Commerce, and that his business was prosperous. None of his friends can account for his absence.

| 39 | 13 Oct Arrested for Gaddis’s Murder Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells Brought Here from Boone County. Deputy Sheriff Nieland yesterday afternoon arrested Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells, at Whitestown, Boone county, and brought them to this city, where they were lodged in jail. The couple were arrested on a grand jury warrant charged them with assault with attempt to kill Ambrose Hedges. The latter is at present in the Boone county jail awaiting trial for manslaughter, his victim having been Dan Gaddis, the husband of the woman arrested yesterday. The affray which resulted in the death of Gaddis and fearful knife wounds to the person of Hedges occurred on the evening of Sept. 7 on the bank of Fall creek at the end of Indiana avenue. Dan and Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells, all of Whitestown, were strolling around the State engaged in trading horses. Here they met Hedges, who lived with his mother near the City Hospital, and quarreled with him over a trade. In the trouble Hedges secured a neckyoke and struck Gaddis a blow over the head form which he died within a week. His wife got hold of a knife and severely stabbed Hedges, while Bunnell fired a shot at him. Two weeks ago Hedges was arrested on the charge of murder, and was taken to Boone county, but before leaving filed information before the grand jury which resulted in the arrest of the wife of his victim.

| 42 | 15 January 1899 They Are Still Missing Many Sudden Disappearances Are Yet Unexplained [long article about several area disappearances, including Charles] One of the mysterious disappearances the police of Kansas city have been called upon to unravel is that of Charles M. Hedges, manager of the American Law association. Hedges dropped out of sight on November 27, at Liberty, Mo., while there on a day’s visit to his uncle, an elder of the Christian church. Not even a suspicion of a trace of him has ever been found, although the police, the missing man’s lodge of the Odd Fellows and numerous friends have all joined in the search for him. Hedges is said to have loved dearly his young wife and infant child, who were left alone in the world. He kissed them goodby on the morning of Sunday, November 27, and said he would be back again at night. That was the last either of them ever has seen of him.

| 43 | 16 Nov Indiana State News Ambrose D. Hedges Not Guilty of Murder (Special to the Indianapolis New) Lebanon, November 16 – The case of the State vs. Ambrose D. Hedges for the murder of Daniel Gaddis in September last, which was begun on Monday in the Circuit Court, terminated this morning by a verdict of not guilty. The evidence showed that Gaddis and his family and Cecil Burk approached Hedges, while the latter was encamped near Fall creek, close to Indianapolis, and proposed trading horses. A quarrel arose, but the Gaddis family left at the time, going to Indianapolis. While there they became intoxicated, and Burk purchased a pistol, with which they returned and renewed the quarrel with Hedges. A fight ensued in which Hedges struck Gaddis on the head with a neck yoke, from the effect of which the latter died two weeks later. Burk shot at Hedges, and Mrs. Gaddis inflicted eight ugly knife wounds upon Hedges’s body. The verdict could have been nothing else under the evidence. Burk has been sentenced to two years imprisonment from Marion county for attempting to murder Hedges, and Mrs. Gaddis is indicted under the same charge.

| 48 | 18 December 1898 Hedges Case Baffles Them Police Can Not Penetrate The Mystery Surrounding It. For More Than a Month Charles M. Hedges Has Been Missing, and Not the Slightest Trace of His Whereabouts Has Been Found – His Wife Still Has Hopes of His Return, and Continues His Business. In an office on the sixth floor of the Nelson building a woman with traces of suffering in her finely-chiseled face, sits all day at a desk and carries on the business which her husband built up during five years of constant toil in the face of many difficulties. She is the wife of Charles M. Hedges, the manager, of the American Law association, who disappeared as mysteriously on November 27 last as if the earth had opened and swallowed him from sight. This woman is carrying on the business of the association as if nothing the world had happened and as if she had been doing it for years. The desk where her husband sat is loaded down with just as many papers as when he was there. Business men of the city who have had occasion to place any of their affairs in the hands of this woman say that she is as much a manager of affairs as was ever her husband. Before her husband disappeared he was a collector of other men’s bills. As manager of the American Law association he solicited unpaid bills from business men and by letters to the delinquent ones tried to get them to settle the bills. Those who knew him best say that he kept a record of every man who paid a bill which had been entrusted to him for collection and that this list was sent monthly to the business firms of the city so that these firms might know who the men were who could pay the bills they had contracted. In writing these letters to the men who owed money to business firms, Hedges would state that if the bills were paid the man’s name would be place on this list and the firms of the city would thereby know whom to trust in selling goods on time. Friends of the missing man say that Hedges never had the bills in his possession, but would simply write the letters to the debtors and collect his commission from the creditors in the event of the bill being paid as a result of his efforts. Mrs. Hedges Still Has Hope. Writing letters is the task which Mrs. Hedges has during all of each day. Every morning when the mail is delivered to the office she tears open each letter with a look of hope in her face. “There may be a letter from Charlie, and he may be sick some out-of-the-way place and can’t come home,” she says. Although disappointed at every mail, she has not give up all hope. “He will come back sometime.” That is what she lives for. While this woman thumps diligently away at a typewriter, a little baby boy plays around on the floor of the office. This child was the delight of Hedges, and when he left his home for a day’s visit at Liberty, he kissed the child good-by. All remembrance of its father leaves the child for days at a time. Sometimes this little boy asks for him, but these requests are becoming fewer and farther apart as the days go by. “The boy has almost forgotten that he ever had a father,” the mother says. “I suppose the child would recognize him if he would come back, but I am not so sure of it. The search for Hedges is still on, but not even the shadow of a suspicion of his whereabouts has been learned of by the police or the missing man’s friends since he dropped out of sight. Hedges’ disappearance is the strangest case the local police have ever been called upon to unravel. To drop out of sight as completely as if a fire had consumed every atom of one’s body is a thing seldom heard of hearabouts. Although nearly a month has passed since Hedges disappeared, not one man has been found who remembers seeing him or anyone who looked like him since he left the Leland hotel at Liberty to catch the 7:45 o’clock train to this city on the night of November 27. The police, the missing man’s lodge of the Odd Fellows and a dozen close friends have done everything possible in the search for him, and none has found the slightest trace. Hedges’ accounts were as straight as a string, and he owed no man, as far as his friends here know. He left a wife and a child, both of whom he is said to have loved dearly. His wife says that there was never anything but the happiest of relations in the family home, and that her husband was a sober, studious man. The Kansas City Time, Kansas City, Missouri.
