Funeral in Gladstone
Funeral services over the body of Ashley Jackson, a pioneer employee of the Northwestern Cooperage & Lumber company, who passed away at St. Paul hospital on Monday, were conducted yesterday afternoon at the family home at Gladstone. Last night accompanied by members of the family, the body was taken to St. Paul, where it will be cremated according to the wishes of Mr. Jackson, of the life of Mr. Jackson the Gladstone Reporter says:
Ashley Jackson was born in Grelton, Ohio, fifty nine years ago, while he attended school in his early youth he never received what might be called a good education, yet in spite of this the deceased was one of the most highly educated and best read men in our city. From his boyhood days to the day that sickness forced him to his bed he was a constant reader and in this way he educated himself in the ways of the world and mankind. He spent about six years in the state of Kansas where he was engaged in the erection of windmills during the time that they were in big demand. He returned to his native town and state in the year of 1883 and was married to Miss Mary Watson, of this union one son, Glenn W. Jackson was born and survives his father. In the year of 1885 death claimed Mrs. Jackson, and in the year of 1890 Mr. Jackson took Miss Margaret Schaeffer of Continental, Ohio, as his second wife, of this union one child, Miss Edith Jackson was born and survives her father.
During the late eighties and early nineties, Mr. Jackson was foreman of various Cooperage plants for the Buckeye company in Ohio. In the year of 1894 he came first to Gladstone and at that time he came to look land, which was purchased by the Buckeye company. He again returned to Ohio and shortly after came back to Gladstone of the company as woods superintendent, one of the most important positions that a man could hold with this large concern.
As those who knew and with whom he toiled have lost a valuable servant.
The deceased has always been an active and energetic man, both mentally and physically, giving liberally of his time and labor to those who needed him.
In religion he early developed the habit of weighing things in the balance of reason, discarding that which to him did not harmonize with the Creator’s plans as he saw God’s laws in the big book of nature. He believed in doing good for the sake of humanity and not in the fear of the anger and vengeance of a higher power. Hell to him, is what men make for themselves here on earth, and not a place of divine origin for future punishment.
To the future existence, he felt that each will be rewarded according to the good deeds done in life. That we come into this life not of our own accord, and that we go not out of our own free will, but subject to the Supreme Power over all, and to that Power he was willing to trust his fate when his time should come to meet the mystery of death.
His convictions whether right or wrong were honest and sincere resulting from much careful study and analysis on his part, and with which he calmly met the fate of all flesh.
The deceased is survived by the wife, one son, Glen W. Jackson, one daughter, Miss Edith Jackson, two brothers, Willis Jackson of Grelton, Ohio, and L.A. Jackson of Cornelius, Ore., two sisters, Mrs. G. J. Cowan of Schenectady, N.Y., and Mrs. D. Battenfield of Delaware, Ohio.

5. Mary Glenn Watson was born on 13 Oct 1859 in Ohio; died on 24 Aug 1885 in Hector, Putnam County, Ohio; was buried in Hoy Cemetery, Shunk, Henry County, Ohio. Notes:
Watson. -Mary Watson, wife of Ashley Jackson and eldest daughter of William A. and Eliza J. Watson, died at Hector, Putnam County, O., Aug. 20th 1885, aged 27 years, 10 months and 7 days.
At a very early age she evinced those traits which ripened into a character remarkable for its beauty and perfection. Of her it may truly be said that those who knew her best loved her most. Her influence was always refining, always elevating. Whether at home or in the school room, where she spent so many hours of her life, she was careful to discharge all her duties with conscientious exactness, almost without regard to her own convenience. As a friend she was steadfast and true, and those who were once privileged to enjoy her friendship always retained it.
To her mother, she was not only a loving daughter, but a sympathizing confidant. Her vigilance over the interest of her younger brothers and sister was untiring, and to them in all things, she was a wise and prudent counsellor.
How much she will be missed in the home circle cannot be told. The sweet voice that so often cheered with its triumphant notes is forever stilled on earth, but they are glad to believe that she has joined the angel choirs above in singing the songs of the redeemed.
But to him, whose home she made a Paradise for over two years, has this blow fallen most heavily. How strange the Providence that should thus have made a home desolate and deprived a lovely little babe of a tender mother's care. But we hope the heartstrings so closely intertwined on earth, and so rudely severed, may be reunited in that "Better Country" where there is no more sorrow, nor any dying, where they may dwell together forever in the light and the glory of God. Like the fragrance of some rare and beautiful flower will the memory of Mary and the lesson taught by her noble life remain.
