| 6554 | Letter From An Old Settler The following letter from M.P.M. Cassity, an old and well known settler of Wetmore, was published in the Wetmore Spectator last week. His numerous friends in this county will sympathize with him and his sore affliction. Plattesburg, Mo, May 13. As I promised to let you hear from me will say that I am about the same as when I left Wetmore. I came her to my sister’s April 26th, after consultation and examination by Drs. Murdock, Morton and McDonald, at Oneida and St. Joseph. They advise me not to have an operation. Said they could perform the operation but there would be great danger in so doing. I was advised by Dr. Murdock, if went to Kansas City to go and see Drs. Minor & Thornton. I have written them and expect reply soon, and if they give me encouragement will go there. If I had plenty of money think I would have an operation and take chances. I feel very thankful to the friends who have assisted me in my great affliction. If I find that my ailment is incurable (which I fear at times at least is true) and I could be cared for there, would rather die at home than elsewhere. I am not afraid to death but dread the pain and suffering prior thereto. Dr. Morton of St. Joe said I should not look at my ailment in that way, that I might outlive him and that I could with local treatment at home or elsewhere be made to feel comfortable. I have to write lying down and am getting weary. I will try and keep you and all who feel interested in my welfare informed. Tell friends to write me here. M.P.M. Cassity.

| 6584 | LKH note: This seems to be the same man. G. C. Kennedy, patent attorney has received official notice from Washington of the allowance of a patent in favor of Mr. Frederick A. Fulghum of this city, on his invention of improvements in stone lifting and stump pulling machines. Mr. Fulghum has associated Mr. Peter Penne with himself in the business of manufacturing the machine in the Cascaden building near the I.C.R.R. shops, and another new and growing manufacturing industry has been added to Waterloo’s list of flourishing institutions. The Courier, Waterloo, Iowa. Wednesday, 21 November 1900. * * * * * Inventor Falls to Death A machine of his own invention, out of which he expected to make a fortune, brought Frederick A. Fulghum, forty-five years old, to his death, almost instantly, at Summit. After years of experiment he had perfected a device for lifting boulders and pulling trees and stumps out of the ground. Under the direction of the Commonwealth Water and Light company he was using his invention on the property of John L. Prescott, No.45 Mountain avenue. Two Poles were working with the inventor. Just before dusk he climbed one of the large trees on the lawn to attach a cable of the machine to one of the higher branches. In the gathering darkness he did not estimate the real strength of a limb, and when he swung his weight on it, the branch gave way. Fulghum fell to the concrete pathway, striking on the right side of his head. Dr. J. Boyd Risk, who was passing, realized the man’s plight and had the limp body taken on the run to the overlook Hospital. The inventor died when he was laid on a cot in the operating room. He came from Iowa five years ago. He leaves a widow. He had cleared off the Canoe Brook Club grounds with his invention. The Penn’s Grove Record, Penns Grove, New Jersey.

| 6589 | LKH note: Although the articles below give a different home address for Charles Himes, the murder victim, than Charles William Himes obituary lists, it seems highly likely that they are the same man. It seems highly unlikely that there would be two different men with the same name, both 49 years old, both from Apopka, and both dying on the same day. * * * * Police identify murder victims Zellwood – Two Apopka men have been identified as the victims of an execution-style double murder. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department said James Dodson, 55, and Charles Himes, 49, were robbed and shot and killed early Tuesday at a tavern in this isolated town in rural Central Florida. One man was the bartender at Lola’s Tavern and the other a customer, police said. The bullet-riddled bodies were stuffed into a tiny men’s room. The bodies were “practically on top of each other,” said paramedic Skip Wathen of the Zellwood Fire Department. “It looked like an execution. Boca Raton News, Boca Raton, Florida. Thursday, 6 December 1979. * * * * Murder victims identified as Apopka men Two men killed during a hold up at a rural Zellwood bar Tuesday afternoon have been identified by Orange County deputy sheriffs as James E. Dodson, 55, 5126 Martingale Lane, owner of Lola’s Tavern, and a customer at the bar, Charles Himes, 49, 240 Grossenbacher St., both of Apopka. The two were in the isolated tavern near the intersection of Kelly Park and Plymouth Sorrento roads sometime after 4 p.m. Tuesday when they were shot to death, deputies said. Himes was found shot once in the head and Dodson shot in the head and chest. A passerby found the men, one dead the other dying, in the bar’s bathroom. Himes was pronounced dead on the scene, and Dodson died at Florida Hospital/Apopka about 15 minutes after he was admitted. A Zellwood Fire Department paramedic said it appeared the two men had been marched into the cramped men’s room and shot. Sheriff’s detectives Wednesday said robbery was the only apparent motive for the killings, but did not know how much money was taken. No arrests had been made by late Wednesday. A statewide bulletin for two men driving a white pickup truck remained posted Wednesday. A woman told deputies she saw the truck leave the tavern parking lot near the time of the shootings.
