Donald R. Wagner was drowned in the Des Moines river at that city Saturday afternoon. He was a son of J. A. Wagner, formerly station agent in this city. His mother now resides over near New Market and is a daughter of the late J. D. Herren. Donald, who was 19 years old, was out for a boat ride with Henry Oheshire, Dorothy Vorse and Evelyn Knotts. Donald stepped into the boat first, pushing an oar into the sand as an anchor. Miss Vorse followed and sat down. When Chesshire stepped in the boat became overbalanced and the three were thrown into the river. Cheshire reached the bank, but Donald in striving to rescue Miss Vorse succeeded in catching hold of the boat, while he was thrown into deeper water by the current. He fought hard to reach the shore, but being unable to swim, sank out of sight a hundred feet below the scene. The calls for help were heard by John Tolline and Chas. Zugenbuhler at a brick yard near by, and they plunged into the river and saved Miss Vorse, who was about to let loose of the boat from exhaustion. It is a sad affair. Donald was a student at the State University and a bright young man. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, May 27, 1909

Mr. Wake lived on the farm where he died twenty-eight years and was esteemed by all his neighbors as a most worthy citizen—one who could be depended upon as a reliable helper in all good causes affecting the community. In his younger days he was a member of the Church of England and after coming to Page Center withdrew his membership and joined the Methodist church, of wnich his wife is a devoted and earnest member.
Although Mr. and Mrs. Wake have never had any children of their own, yet their home has always been the home of young people in whom they took great interest.

Later it was learned that he went out driving his stallion to a high salky for exercise over east of that town on the ridge between the two rivers, and it is supposed the horse became frightened from some cause and while kicking struck him in the left breast, which crushed his ribs over the heart and he died in a few moments. No one saw the accident but a little girl of Clem Miller, who told her father and he went at once to the scene. Mr. Wallack died soon after. The surrounding conditions when found point to these facts, Mr. Wallack was about sixty-eight years old, and a highly respected citizen and old settler of that place.

Shambaugh, Iowa, April 7,1902. (Special to the Herald).—About 2 o'clock this afternoon, S. M. Wallick was driving his stallion, to exercise it, hitched to a cart he kept for that purpose, and while going east over a little hill just east of Rev. A. A. Miller's house, one and one-half miles east of town, the horse is supposed to have become frightened at something and began kicking. Mr. Wallick was struck just over the heart and almost instantly killed. Two ribs were fractured. No one saw the horse kicking, but Mr. Miller's little six-year-old girl who at that time chanced to go out to the road, saw the horse running away, and saw Mr. Wallick fall from the cart. She ran in and told her father that a horse had run away and a man had fallen in the road and did not get up, Mr. Miller went out and found Mr. Wallick still breathing, but unconscious. He called his son, Bert, and Jacob Burley, and the three men carried Mr. Wallick into the house, but when they laid him down he was dead.
Mr. Wallick was one of our best citizens, and his death has cast a feeling of sadness over the entire community. His children and friends have been telegraphed the sad news. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Apr 8, 1902

Wamsley, William Henry Harrison was born in Randolph county, Virginia, Dec. 29, 1844, and died at his home near Clarinda May 20th, 1901.
He lived in Randolph county Virginia during his earlier childhood. At the age of five, his parents moved to Lucas county, Iowa, and from thence to the farm on which his family now reside. He was married in 1872 to Miss Johanna Giles, of Page county, Iowa. Five children haye been born to them. The oldest, Irma, died nine years ago; the others, four boys, with the wife, now survive him,
Mr. Wamsley was a life long farmer. He was an industrious man, working harder than his health really allowed. For his boys be has set the highest example of industry; one that will characterize them as they grow in years. Three years ago this coming June he was taken ill with hemorrhage of the lungs and from that time on it was a steady decline that bore him away. He was very calm and patient; in fact he was never known to complain. A short time before his death, being almost unable to speak louder than a whisper, he wrote a letter of comfort and advice to his family, urging them to stay together and make this their home as long as possible.
During his life, which was one long act of honesty, he connected himself with no church but before he died he told those watching by him that all was well with him, "that a hand had grasped his and he was clinging to it." "Softly, yet sweetly, the death angel spoke,
So gently, so tenderly, he dealt the
last stroke, That friends fondly watching scarce
knew the change When the freed soul from its clay was
estranged, To soar far away to the regions of
light,
And dwell in God's presence; while there is no night,
While the moon's soft lustre the dear head hath crowned
Tis eclipsed by 'the more excellent glory' profound,
That enthralls all the senses of a glorified soul,
Whose earth songs are ended, but has
now reached its goal Where nobler and higher the theme
he shall sing, Will be our glorious Redeemer and
King." CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, May 24, 1901

Beyond our vision dim; All souls are His and here or there
Are living unto Him. Our knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim; But we're content, since Christ knows all,
And we will be with Him. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Oct 14, 1915

BABY DROWNED IN A JAR
Child  of  Walter  Warner  Was Just Learning to Walk
The baby boy of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Warner was drowned Friday morning about seven o'clock. The
little tot was just at the age beginning to walk well. The father saw the boy alive and well just about ten
minutes before its death when it cried to go along to the barn with Mr. Warner.
Almost at once he was called back to the house, as the baby had been found by Mrs. Warner's niece,
Miss Sylvia Hankins. It was head foremost in a ten gallon jar which was not quite half full of water.
The doctor was called at one al though life was then extinct. The parents are overcome with grief
and the doctor was called back in about an hour to attend Mr. Warner who had one of his former bad
spells by the shock. The Warners live almost two miles south of Yorktown. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Aug 2, 1917

Miss Flora E. Warnke.
The funeral of Miss Flora E. Warnke, who died in Omaha at midnight, Wednesday night of last week, was held Saturday morning last at 10:30 o'clock at the home of Miss Warnke's sister, Mrs. C. A. Boone, in Clarinda. The officiating minister was Rev. D. S. Curry. By request of the deceased, Lucille Boone, her cousin, played piano accompaniments for the hymns sung, "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere," and "Nearer My God to Thee," the latter hymn being a special favorite of the dceased. The singers were Misses Carrie Loranz, Alice Wilson, Doris Richardson and Mrs. G. A. Gillmor. The remains were taken to Malvern and from there to a cemetery five miles north of that city, for interment.
In the course of his remarks which centered around this text, "Mary hath chosen the good part which shall not be taken away," the officiating minister, Rev. David S. Curry, said in part as follows: "Miss Warnke chose conscientiousness, love of Bible, Bible knowledge, gentleness, generosity, giving far more often out of her meagerness than many gave out of their abundance, patience (work being one hemisphere of life and suffering the other). Her development in this latter direction was beyond anything ordinary. She also chose devotion to Christ and his church, spiritual mindedness, Christian example and Christian influence, reflecting the life of her Master as the mirror reflects the face that looks into it. In closing he suggested that the best way for the family and the friends to perpetuate her memory was not by any expensive monument but by doing what Lincoln taught us to do in connection with the Union, dedicating ourselves   to the things for which she lived. He finished with these words, so fitting to her memory.

"So few are ready when the call
Is wafted shoreward from the deep: The summons that must come to all, The tryst that mortal   man must keep.
But she was ready;
Through the day She did her task and lived her prayer,
A weary hill made hard the way,
She saw the roses growing there. And when the twilight hour grew near,
She stood beside the silent sea, And in her heart there was no fear Of all that dread immensity." CLARINDA JOURNAL, Clarinda, Iowa, Oct 11, 1918

BEAUTIFUL LIFE IS ENDED
The funeral of Miss Flora E. Warnke was held Saturday morning at ten o'clock at the home of her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Boone, on S. 14th street. Rev. Curry preached a beautiful sermon, during the course of which he spoke on the text, "Mary hath chosen the good part which shall not be taken away," and the talk was in part as follows: "Miss Warnke chose conscientiousness, love of the Bible, Bible knowledge, genleness, generosity, giving far more often out of her meagreness than many give out of their abundance, patience, work being one hemisphere of her life, and suffering the other. Her share of the latter was beyond the ordinary suffering of humanity. She also chose devotion to Christ and His Church, spiritual mindedness, Christian example and Christian influence, her life reflecting from the life of her Master as a mirror reflects the face that looks into it." In closing he suggested that the best way for her friends and loved ones to perpetuate her memory was not by an expensive monument, but by doing as Lincoln taught us to in connection with the Union, dedicating ourselves to the things for which she lived. He completed the talk with these words, so fitting to her memory. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Oct 10, 1918

Waters, Horace and Harvey

J. M, Watters and wife have been unable   to receive any further word concerning the fate of their two twin sons, Harvey and Horace, who were reported lost in northern British Columbia, as stated last week.  They have received three letters from their son Archie Waters at Chico, Calif., who had telegraphed   and  written parties but received no word in return.    Mr. Waters fails to get a reply to his letter written to the chief of police at Victoria. Here is the clipping from the Victoria Times published about June 1 which he received from Mr. McKee und was forwarded to Archie and returned a few days since, another tragedy of the west coast would appear to be unfolded by a dispatch received from Clayoquot this morning. It involves the almost certain loss of two brothers named Harvey and Horace Waters, who five   weeks ago set out from Victoria on a prospecting trip up the Tahasas river.    The  Indians in the neighborhood of Nootka report that for the last month the boat owned by the  Waters brothers has been lying deserted at the mouth of the Tahasas river.   It is loaded with a full cargo of supplies,  a tent and other equipment which the men had brought with them to last during their prospecting trip. But the brothers are nowhere to be found.   Surmise has it that they wandered through the thickly wooded place and in some manner get   lost. For four  weeks past no trace  has been found of either and during   all that time the Indians in the vicinity say the boat has been lying at the waters edge deserted. This news of what is evidently another tragedy was brought from Nootka to Clayoquot by the steamer Tees.   A special dispatch to the Times states that there are no white men in the vicinity to organize a search.
P. S.—Mr. Waters received a telegram this morning from the chief of police at Victoria that the body of Horace had been brought to that city and identified by the clothing. He telegraphed Archie to go to Victoria and if it is the body of Horace to bring it home. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Jun 18, 1908

J M. Waters and wife received the sad intelligence last Thursday evening of the mysterious death of their two twin sons, Horace and Harvey Waters, up in Alaska.    A letter was received from a gentleman by the name of Mr. McKee, living about 100 miles north of Victoria, British Columbia,  and also a clipping from a  paper giving a brief account of the sad affair.  It seems that Mr. McKee had recently purchased the store of the two Waters boys and they had taken a boat load of provisions and gone up the Lyodite river into Alaska on a prospecting trip, about a month or two ago around Dodge's Cove. The news of their death seems to have come from the native Indians where the boys had landed and   were operating, stating that they came there about a month previous, but had not been seen lately and feared some accident had befallen tbem as the boat seemed to be abandoned and the supplies still in tact undisturbed.    It was suspicioned that the boys had become lost in the mountains or been killed   by bears or other wild animals, as no trace could be found of them by the Indians.   On the receipt of the letter here by Mr.  Waters he immediately   telegraphed the chief of police at Victoria for information and offering a reward   of $300.    He also wrote to his son, Archie   Waters, living at Chico, Calif., also sending the newspaper clipping,  with instructions for him to leave at once in search of the boys. Saturday he received a telegram from the chief police at Victoria stating that the body of one,  supposed to be that of Horace,  had been found on Tonga Island but no trace of the other. That is the last heard from there concering their mysterious disappearance. The twins were about 38 years of age and had  been in  the   northwest for twelve or fifteen years, and had made numerous trips up into the same country with prospecting parties surveying and mining for years  past and were well known to the Indians who knew well the boys and their names, having frequently traded with  them. There is no thought that the Indians betrayed or injured the boys as they are all very friendly to the  whites and the boat and supplies have not been disturbed.    It is a severe blow to Mr. and Mrs. Waters, both of whom are nearly prostrated and heart   broken.   It is hoped they will soon   receive better news through their other son who is now investigating the terrible affair.

J. M. Waters received a telegram Sunday from his son Archie Waters, who went up to Victoria, British Columbia, from Chlco, Calif., to investigate the mysterious death of the two twin boys, which states the body found and returned to Victoria was that of Horace Waters, as it was easily identified by the features and hair, and that the remains were buried in that city the same day, last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Waters had intended to have the body shipped to this city, but it seems that through friends of the boys it had been their desire expressed years before as that was their home, but Harvey's wish will hardly be gratified as Archie could learn nothing of his whereabouts or fate as where their boat landed was several hundred miles over north of Victoria. A letter from Archie is expected any time with more full particulars. It is indeed a strange and mysterious affair. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Jun 25, 1908

Since that time he has been playing against the advice of his parents, doctors, and school authorities. This fall he went to a school near Kansas City, where his brother, Lester is coach, with the intention of playing there this year, but was not allowed to enter the team because of his physical condition, following an examination by the school physician.
In the Clarinda game, Floyd played exceptionally well, up to the time when the fainting attack came, calling his signals correctly and running good interference, while not carrying the ball very much. He was not in a hard play before the attack.
He was taken to the hospital from the field,, after it was seen that he was in a serious condition, and died at 2:15 Saturday morning, attended by his brother, who had come down from Villisca to witness the game. His parents and sister arrived after his death. The death certificate stated that death was caused by "acute inflamation of the brain and fracture at base of brain".
The funeral was held at Villisca Monday afternoon, attended by football players from Clarinda, Red. Oak, and Corning. The Villisca high school was closed for the afternoon. The services were held in the Methodist Church, conducted by Rev. S. H. Coleman, minister of the Advent Church, and assisted by Rev. J. L. Boyd of the Methodist Church. Eighteen men attended from Clarinda. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 17, 1921
