Salber, Joseph Frederick -
Joseph Frederick Salber. Joseph Frederick, son of J. A. and Mary Melissa Salber, was born March 12, 1885, at Salem, Iowa, and died April 19, 1909, at Glenwood, la., aged 24 years, 1 month and 7 days.
When he was about six months old he had an attack of spinal meningitis, from the effects of which he was left an invalid. His short life was full of suffering, and his loved ones did all that could be done to make him as comfortable as possible. Four years ago it became necessary to take him to the hospital at Glenwood, where he passed away to that realm where no suffering is, and where he will have a change to that larger life.
The funeral services were held at the Salber home in this city yesterday afternoon, Rev. J. W. Abel conducting the services. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Apr 22, 1909
Fred Salber died Sunday at the Glenwood Institution for the Feeble Minded, after terrible suffering from convulsions. He was 24 years old and had been an invalid all his life.

Salber, Mary Melissa Hill -
Mrs. Mary M. Salber, wife of J. A. Salber, died at the home in north Clarinda, Saturday, Jan. 12, 1901, at 4 o'clock p. m. She had been in poor health for some time from la grippe, but a few days before greatly improved, when she took a relapse which terminated in pneumonia and death soon followed. She was 43 years, 6 months and 29 days of age. Miss Mary Hill was born at Fredericktown, Pa., and in 1872 the family removed to Salem. Iowa. In 1876 she was married to Mr. A. Salber and four children are the fruits of this union, all of whom with the husband mourn her uutimely death. In 1894 the family removed to this city and have since made their home here. She was a kind and affectionate wife and mother, and a devoted member of the M. E. church. The funeral took place at the home Tuesday at 2 p. m, conducted by Rev. IlgenFritz, and her remains interred in the city cemetery. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Jan 17, 1901
The community was shocked last Saturday evening to hear of the death of Mrs. J. A. Salber, at her home northeast of the square. It was only a day or two before that she had been down town, and while many knew that she had been in poor health for some months, no one was prepared for the suddenness with which she passed away. She has been troubled with diabetes for some time, but congestion of the brain was the immediate cause of her death, which occurred at four o'clock on Saturday afternoon. Funeral services will be held at the home this afternoon at two o'clock, conducted by her pastor, Rev. IlgenFritz, of the M. E. church.
Mary M. Hill was born in Fredericktown, Washington County, Pa., June 13, 1857. At the age of fifteen years she moved with her mother to Salem, Iowa, her father having died the year before. On January 15 of 1876 she was married to J. A. Salber. Four children,—Carl, Gertrude, Freddie and Etta, have been born to them, and all, with the grief stricken husband, survive to mourn her loss. In October of 1894 the family moved to Clarinda, and have since made their home here. Mrs. Salber united with the M. E. church after their coming, and has been a faithful member, and always was held in the highest esteem as a friend and neighbor by all who knew her. She was a gem among women, and the family may well mourn for her, but not without hope, for such as she make up the heavenly kingdom.
Besides her immediate family, Mrs.
Salber left brothers and sisters as follows:—Mrs. Clark McCorkle, of near
Clarinda; Mrs. Chas. Pickard, of near
Bentonsport, VanBuren county; J. C.
Hill, of New Sharon; Miss Letitia
Hill, who resides with the family; E.
J. Hill, of Oskaloosa: and L. C. Hill,
who returned from Cape Nome, Alaska, in November. All of the brothers
and sisters except J. C. Hill, who is
detained by sickness, will be present
at the services this afternoon. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Jan 15, 1901

Salsgiver, Henry - Mr. Henry Salsgiver was born in West Lebanon, Armstrong county, Pa., Dec. 6, 1836, and died in Clarinda, Page county Iowa, Jan. 18, 1911, aged 74 years, 1 month and 12 days. He was a son of Henry and Elizabeth Salsgiver. He was married to Miss Louisa Bryson, Oct. 7,1856, in Indiana, Indiana county, Pa. Both were the children of prosperous farmers, living near Indiana. After their marriage they set up a little home of their own and Mr. Salsgiver worked at the shoemaker's trade, which he had learned while a boy. The little family lived at Indiana and West Lebanon, Pa., until the year 1870, when they moved to Clarinda, where they have since lived continuously. Their first home was on the corner lot where the Henshaw Hotel now stands and they lived there only a few years, moving later to the house south of the jail. From there they moved to their present home which they own, in 1876. The deceased was a member of the Baptist church since early manhood. He was a private in Co. G, 2d Battalion, Pennsylvania Infantry. Ten children were born to this union, six of whom, with the wife, survive. These are: T. M. Salsgiver and Mrs. D. H. Rhoades, of Wymore, Nebr.; W. W. Salsgiver, of Pittsburg, Pa.; Mrs. Gertrude Marks, of Kansas City, Mo; and Della and Birch, still at home in this city. Two daughters, Ella B. and Mary E., died in infancy, two sons, Harry W. and Chenoworth G., died in early manhood. Mr. Salsgiver lived a quiet, reserved life, living exclusively for the happiness and well being of his family. Strong in manly principles—his word at any time being as good as his bond. Pure in his morals and free from bad habits of any kind. Being strictly honorable himself, he had almost too great confidence in human nature. During his sickness his sufferings were most acute —at times almost past endurance—yet through it all was shown sweet patience and consideration for those around him. He had not been a well man for the past three years and the last six months had been quietly suflering, but continuing his labors. On January 1st he was unable to leave his bed and each day afterwards grew rapidly worse until he quietly and peacefully passed away as the clock struck ten on the evening of the 18th. The funeral was held at the First Baptist church on Saturday afternoon, Jan. 21, at 2:30, conducted by Rev J. W. Watson, pastor of the Baptist church at Villisca, Iowa. The G, A. R.'s had charge of the services at the grave, using their beautiful and touching ritualistic service. The family is grateful to the many friends and neighbors for their kind sympathy and
help during the sickness and death of their beloved husband and father, also for the beautiful floral tributes. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT and CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Jan 26, 1911

Sanger, Mary Miles -
Death of Mrs. M. M. Sanger.
Mr. Will M. Sanger received word Saturday of the death of his grandmother, Mrs. Mary Miles Sanger, who died at her home in Paxton, Ill., Thursday evening of last week. Mrs. Sanger, on the 17th day of April last, celebrated her 92nd birthday. At that time she was in good health and bade fair to round out the century. She was taken sick a week ago Thursday, her first sickness in nearly 50 years, and which proved to be her last. She was born in Cuyahoga county, Ohio, April 17, 1812. At the age of 20 she was married to Dr. W. A. Sanger in Cleveland, Ohio, Five years later, they removed to Peru, Indiana; two years later, to Lasalle county, Illinois, settling among the Indians. Dr. Sanger died in Florence, Kans., in 1887, since which time Mrs Sanger has made her home with her son, Chas. M. Sanger, who died in Paxton, Ill., Feb. 12th, last. One daughter, Mrs. Mary Crane, of Chicago, was with her at the time of her death. Two grandchildren, Chas F. Crane, of Chicago, and Will M. Sanger, of Clarinda, and 7 great grand-children, are left. When Mrs. Sanger was married in Cleveland, it was a little Indian trading post. The little town of Hudson was then the most promising place in northern Ohio, but on account of Indian troubles, the people moved into the Fort at Cleveland, and Hudson's day of greatness vanished. Mrs. Sanger was educated in Middlebury, Vermont, making the journey from Cleveland, a distance of 500 miles by sleigh. It was in the fall of one of Jackson's campaigns and Mrs. Sanger remembered to the end the interest taken in the campaign by the people along her route, and the way the boys, even, would shout for Jackson. In Middlebury, she made the acquaintance of Julia Ward Howe, who has attained sucu eminence in the literary world, but who was at that time an orphan left in charge of the landlady of the house in which Mrs. Sanger staid.
Up to the end, Mrs Sanger retained all of her faculties, enjoying keenly social life, entertaining her friends and taking great pleasure in it. She performed light labor and sewing up to the last, her eyesight being so good that she had no need of glasses. The last work she ever performed was a slumber robe which she made for her youngest grandson in this city, the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Will M. Sanger. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, May 3, 1904

Edgar Orrin Sawtelle
The funeral of Edgar Orrin Sawtelle was held Sunday afternoon from
the Harmon Funeral Home, conducted by Rev. W. C. Williamson. Internment was in the Clarinda cemetery.
Edgar Orrin Sawtelle was born in Sidney, Maine, April 5, 1848. He was one of a family of 11 children, one sister and 10 brothers all of whom have since preceeded their brother into the great beyond, except the sister and 3 brothers. Mr. Sawtelle's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eberidge Sawtelle, have also proceeded their son in death. Mr. Sawtelle's early manhood was spent on the old homestead with his parents until he went to Colby University, Maine, from which he graduated. He entered the railway service with the Erie railroad when he was but 21 years of age and continued in active service on that road and later on the C. B. & Q. railroad until his death, or 50 years of continous railroad service. For several years he held a "run" in Boston, Mass., on what is known as the Boston and Maine railroad. It was thus while engaged in the service at Boston that he married Miss Sarah W. Chambers, June 15, 1872.
Mr. and Mrs. Sawtelle lived in Boston until March 1888, when they came to Creston, Iowa. There he took a "run" as engineer on the C. B. & Q. railroad. The family lived in Creston, Iowa. There he took a "run" as engineer on the C. B. & Q. railroad. The family lived in Creston until 28 years ago, when they moved to Clarinda, and Clarinda has been home to Mr. Sawtelle ever since. During his 28 years of service, since living in Clarinda, Mr. Sawtelle has been engineer on the line between Villisca and Bigelow. And during his service here alone it is practically impossible to count the number of persons who owe their lives to this man. Possibly 2 million persons have placed their safety in his hands when they boarded his train. So long has been his service even here in Clarinda that he has become a familiar landmark. Everyone knew him and greeted him with his honorable title of "Colonel." He was never known to shirk his duty and always thought of the lives that had been placed in his hands, when he took ahold of the throttle. Notable and famous men and women have also had the honor to ride on Mr. Sawtelle's train. He was a kind, affectionate and honorable gentlemen.
The sister and brothers who survive Mr. Sawtelle are: August of Augusta, Maine; Fred C. of Boston, Mass.; Dr. Charles of Washington D. C; and Mrs. Dr. DeRocher of Bradentown, Fla. Besides his wife, Mr. Sawtelle leaves to mourn their loss two sons and two daughters. They are: Irvin E. of Omaha; Frank O. of Sioux City; Mrs. Edith Fulton of Grand Island, Neb.; and Mrs. Dollie Price of San Francisco, California. Mrs. Price is ill in a hospital in San Francisco and was not able to attend the funeral.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers expressed their sympathy and respect for their lost comrade with a beautiful floral decoration shaped like an engine wheel with one spoke gone. His funeral was attended by W. W. Wright and wife, his fireman for many years, and also Harry Gates, Mr. Sawtelle's conductor several years. Another very dear friend of the family, Mrs, H. Trusty of Creston, sang a beautiful solo at the funeral. Besides these intimate friends Mr. Sawtelle's funeral was attended by a host of local trainmen and a number of out-of-town guests.

The funeral of Dr. H. W. Scales was held Monday afternoon, in Yorktown, in the Presbyterian church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Chas. B. Driver. The funeral was largely attended, the
stores of Yorktown closing for the hour, and the people turning out as by common consent to pay a last tribute to one who for nearly a quarter of a century had helped to alleviate the aches and pains of mankind in that vicinity. After the services the remains were conveyed to Coin, attended by a number of friends and Masonic brethren from Nodaway Lodge No. 140 from Clarinda, deceased being a Mason as well as a member of O. E. S. Clarinda Chapter No. 214. From Coin shipment was made to the old home in Booneville, Ind., for interment.
The death of Dr. Scales was a great surprise and shock to his many friends in Page eounty, where he has lived most of the time for the past thirty eight years. Death was due to chronic heart trouble. On last Friday morning he failed to come down stairs as usual, at the hotel conducted by Mrs. Ella E. Hale and daughter, where he has been residing for many years. This led to a search of his room, where it was found he had died sometime during the night. Coroner Roy Harmon was called, who deemed a coroner's inquest unnecessary, being a plain case of heart trouble, to which he was subject, and simply failed to awaken from his last sleep.
His son, Earl Scales was present at the funeral, also the only living brother, Travis D. Scales, of Boonville, Ind.
H. W. Scales was born in Taylorville, Ind., Dec. 22nd, 1853, being the eldest son of Wilson and Martha (Spladley) Scales, natives of Indiana, where their entire lives were spent, His father was a grocer and farmer by occupation. The son received his education in the schools of Pike county, Indiana, working on the farm, until nineteen years of age, when for the purpose of securing a better education for the two living sons the father moved to Boonville, Ind. Here H. W. Scales graduated from the high school in 1873, and later took up the study of medicine, at first in a doctor's office, going later to the medical school in Cincinnati, where he received his degree of M. D. three years later in 1876. For three years he practiced medicine in Springfield, Ind., then came to Page, county, Iowa, in 1879, settling at Yorktown, where he practiced until 1890. Yorktown in those early days was a part of the Iowa prairies, sparsely settled, and the country surrounding had the same aspect, very different from the busy little city and thriving community it now is. From 1890 until 1904 he practiced in Boonville, Ind., his old home, but returned again to Yorktown in 1904, resuming practice of medicine, and has been located there until called recently by the Death Angel for activity in other spheres of usefullness and happiness. Dr. Scales was well known in all parts of Page county, by many friends who will be surprised to learn of his passing from us.

Dr H.W. Scales
A professional man of long standing in the community where he lived, Dr. H. W. Scales, prominently identified with local affairs, was found dead in his bed in his room at the hotel of Mrs. E. Hale, in Yorktown, last Saturday morning. He had not long before been seriously ill, but had recovered so that he was around attending to his duties. He was apparently doing so well that it was a great surprise when it was learned that he had departed from his life. His son, W. E. Scales, and Dr. T. D. Scales, brother of the deceased, both of Boonville, Ind., came to Yorktown on learning of the death of their relative, and were in Clarinda Monday morning on matters connected with the funeral. Services to the memory of Dr. Scales were held Monday afternoon at the Presbyterian church in Yorktown, conducted by Rev. Charles B. Driver, who paid a high tribute to the character of the deceased. The church was crowded and it was estimated that there were about as many people outside on the church grounds as inside. It is said to have been the largest funeral ever held in Yorktown. Among those present were members of Nodaway lodge, No. 140, A. and A. M., of Clarinda, of which Dr. Scales died a member. Going from here were the following Masons: M. R. Ansbach, W. E. Stevens, J. R. Preston, D. D. Stitt and Max Kaufman, senior warden, who represented the worshipful master. Dr. C. C. Parriott, also a member of the same lodge, a former Yorktown physician, attended the funeral from Essex. Messrs. Kaufman, Stevens, Stitt and W. H. Hubert of Nodaway lodge acted as bearers, going to Coin with the funeral party, from which place the remains were taken by train to Boonville, Ind., for burial, and where it was expected that a Masonic funeral would be conducted Wednesday afternoon. From Rev. Charles B. Driver The Journal has received the following concerning the late Dr. Scales:
"Dr. H. W. Scales was born in Taylorville, Ind., Dec. 22, 1853, and departed this life at the home of Mrs. E. E. Hale in Yorktown, Iowa, Oct. 13, 1917, at the age of 63 years, 9 months and 21 days. When 4 years of age he moved with his parents to Pike county, Ind., where he acquired his preliminary education in the district schools, remaining on the home farm until 19 years of age, when he moved to Boonville, where he graduated from the high school of that place and in 1873 took up the study of medicine, graduating from the Ohio Medical college of Cincinnatti in 1879, after which he opened an office in Springfield, Ind., where he was engaged in the practice of his profession for three years, at the expiration of which period he came to Yorktown, Iowa,, and remained until 1890 when he returned to Boonville, Ind., where he engaged in general practice for fourteen years. On May 17, 1904, he returned to Yorktown, taking up his practice, which he continued until the end came. On the 19th of March 1877, he was united in marriage to Miss Lizze Gast who preceded him in death several years ago. To this union one son was born, Welby Earl . Dr. Scales was a charter member of the Yorktown Presbyterian church which was organized on April 13, 1884. His membership was transferred to Boonville, Ind., in 1891, but was returned to the Yorktown church in 1907 ad has remained until removal by death. Dr. Scales was a member of the Woodmen of The World, Court of Honor, I. O. O. F., and of the Masonic order. He was conscientious and faithful in the discharge of his professional services, fully realizing and appreciating the responsibilities devolving on him in this connection. He leaves a host of friends who will miss him in their every day life, especially when sickness enters their homes." CLARINDA JOURNAL, Clarinda, Iowa, Oct 18, 1917

Scholes, George W. -
GEO. W. SCHOLES
KILLED IN RUNAWAY.
Fatal Accident Thursday Morning.
At 10 o'clock; this (Thursday) morning, Mr. Geo. W. Scholes was killed by his horse running away on south 16th street, Clarinda, just before reaching the railroad track. It is not known how the horse started nor exactly how Mr. Scholes met his death, as no one can be found who was an eyewitness to the accident. The evidence is that the harness broke. The horse was hitched to a single buggy, which it pulled to the east side of the road, and through the hedge fence in front of C. E. Coleman's residence. The rig struck a tree, and the horse broke loose, throwing Mr. Scholes out. His head was fractured, and he breathed his last soon after the arrival of Dr. F. H. Clark, who was immediately called by phone.
Mr. Scholes had just left his residence in Clarinda, to go to his farm in Harlan township, near the Linn Point school house. He had just recently moved to town, building a residence in the new Berry addition, where he and his wife have been living, his daughter, Mrs. J. M. Huggins, and family, being on the home place. He leaves a wife and five children, among them Mrs. Wilse Baird and Mrs. Sam Toner, near Shambaugh.
The horse which Mr. Scholes was driving is a young colt which he had been driving recently, having disposed of his black driving horse some time ago. Some plumbers were working in his new house, and Mr. Scholes remarked to his wife, he believed he would go to the farm this morning, while the plumbers were finishing their work.
Mr. Scholes will be sadly missed in our community. He was a member of the Covenanter church, and a G. A. R. veteran, having served with credit in Co. A, 8th lowa Cavalry. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 21, 1912
A terrible accident occurred in the east part of the city last Thursday fore noon which caused the death of Geo. W Scholes, a retired farmer and respected citizen of this city. It seems he had started from his home for a drive to his farm over east, occupied by his son-in-law, J. M. Huggins, and driving a somewhat fractious young horse it is thought the animal shied at something and broke a part of the harness or it gave way from some other cause, and the buggy being turned to one side he was thrown heavily to the ground and injuries inflicted from which he died in about half an hour. He leaves a wife and five children to mourn his tragic death. He was a soldier in the civil war, serving in Company A, 8th Iowa cavalry. The funeral was held Saturday forenoon at 10 o'clock from the Covenenter church southwest of the city and interment in the church cemetery. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 28, 1912
