Hopkins Journal (Hopkins, Missouri), Thursday, February 12, 1903
Dr. Marie E. Adams Dead. A Prominent Physician as Well as a Widely Known W. C. T. U. and Woman Suffrage Leader.
Dr. Marie E. [liza] Adams, was born at West Falls, Erie county, N. Y., May 13, 1838, and died at Hopkins, Mo., Feb. 6, 1903, aged 64 years, 8 months and 23 days. She was one of a family of six children—two of whom, J. L. Adams, of St. Joseph, and Charlotte C. Fleming, of Hopkins, survive her.
Her childhood training was under the influence of a Christian home. In early life she was converted and joined the First Baptist church of Buffalo, New York.
In her early life, but few schools of even academic grades, were open to women. She was, however, allowed to take special selected studies at the Aurora and Springville Academies. After completing these studies, she engaged in teaching. She taught 12 years in Syracuse, N. Y., five years in Kansas and one year in Missouri. By this time broader opportunities were open in our colleges to women. Her vigorous, grasping brain was not satisfied with the routine work of the school room. The Medical profession opened a field congenial to her thirst for knowledge, so she entered Hahnemann Medical college of Chicago in 1883. Here she applied herself with such diligence and so thoroughly mastered her studies that she completed the four years course in three years and graduated at the head of a class of 102.
As an evidence of the thoroughness with which she did her work, a teacher's certificate is found among her papers, graded on the scale of 10 and on every study she received a grade of 10.
After completing her medical course, she practiced medicine in Chicago for about three years. Here she became deeply interested in the work of the WCTU. About the year 1890, she was sent out by this organization to lecture through the south, especially on the scientifically ascertained effects of the use of alcohol on the human system. After a short tour of several of the southern states she located at Atlanta, Georgia, where she again began the work of her profession. Early in July of this year she was called to Hopkins on account of the serious illness of her niece and since then her home and work have been here.
For eleven years she was state superintendent of health and non alcoholic medication for the WCTU of this state. For five years she was corresponding secretary of the Woman's Suffrage Association. In all this work, few were more efficient. She was also an active member of the local WCTU union. She was always deeply interested in the welfare of young women and in her they found a true friend. She was a constant student, not only of subjects relative to her profession but of all scientific and economic questions that effect the welfare of the race; these studies she pursued not merely for the knowledge gained, but for the greater good that it would enable her to do. She lived not to help herself but to help others. In her profession, she was many times both physician and nurse. Her supreme desire was to cure the sick. The amount of the bill was after consideration. With her the question was not, "Can you pay me?" but can I cure you. Of her it can truly be said, "Those who knew her best loved her most." As a writer, she was clear and forceful and many of her papers read before conventions have been put in pamphlet form and widely circulated. She lived to do good and has gone to her reward. She will be missed by those she served and helped by her ministry of love.
The funeral services were held in the Presbyterian church Sunday, Feb. 8, at 2:30 p. m., short addresses being made by Revs. Seelig and John, with Rev. Jones in charge after which the body was interred in the Hopkins cemetery.   C. H. J.

Ira K. Alderman, Former Probate Judge, Dies at 91
Veteran Member of Bar Association Had Been Ill For Several Years
Served in Civil War. Year After War Ended Mr. Alderman Came to Maryville; Funeral Arrangements Not Yet Completed.
Ira K. [emper] Alderman, former probate judge of Nodaway county who was a practicing attorney here for sixty years, died at 7:15 o'clock this morning at his home on South Main street. He had been in ill health for several years and had been confined to his room for months. Heart trouble was the immediate cause of his death.
Judge Alderman, who retired from active law practice in the spring of 1929, lived to observe his ninety-first birthday on May 23 this year. He was one of the few remaining soldiers of the Civil War. When Mr. Alderman was q7 years old the war broke out and he enlisted in Company B, Thirty-Sixth Ohio regiment under General George Crook. Mr. Alderman served in the Union army for more than three years, participating in the battles of South Mountain, Antietam, Chickamaugua, Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga, the second battle of Bull Run and others.
Was Born in Ohio.
He was born in Morgan county, Ohio, and his late wife, formerly Miss Hallie S. Lallance, who died in 1919, also was a native of Ohio.
Judge Alderman, who was wounded in the battle of Antietam, came to Missouri in 1866, moving to Savannah, but came to Maryville later that year to teach in the schools. The following summer he returned to Ohio where he was married.
Returning here he went into the Anderson Brothers lumber company as clerk and later was employed in the W. T. Orear dry goods store. In 1870 he was elected judge of the probate court, serving for four years. His opponent in the election was D. L. Palmer. Judge Alderman aspired to be prosecuting attorney but was defeated in 1876 by John Edwards. In later years he was city attorney for three terms. Judge Alderman started the study of law in Ohio but made further study after moving here and was admitted to the bar in 1871.
Active in Civic Affairs.
In 1879 he formed a partnership with L. Isham White and they enjoyed an active practice. In later years Judge Alderman was forced to forego appearing before the bench because of failing hearing but remained a counsellor at law. His law office was taken over in 1929 by Virgil L. Rathbun, present prosecuting attorney.
Judge Alderman gave his spare time to public enterprises and civic activities in his more active days. He was the original secretary of the standard Poland China Record Association which still has its headquarters here. In addition he was one of the founders of the Nodaway County Agricultural and Mechanical Society and acted as secretary to this organization for several years.
Judge Alderman worked out the system of registration employed in the registering of animals by the Standard Association. He always was active in the affairs of the First Methodist church and for many years was superintendent of the Sunday school. In 1880 he attended the general conference of the church. Judge Alderman also was one of the trustees for the Maryville Seminary, later taken over by the state.
In 1923 Judge Alderman suffered a stroke of paralysis and was confined in the hospital for some time but made a recovery and was able later to go to his law office.
Three Children Survive.
Judge Alderman is survived by three children, Dale V., St. Joseph; Mrs. Ada A. Bingaman, Cordell, Okla., and Ira Verne, Kansas City, Mo.
Attorney M. E. Ford who is in charge of the arrangements, said that funeral services will not be arranged until the children arrive.

--Mrs. John L. Ritze received a telegram on Sunday afternoon announcing the sudden death of her sister, Mrs. C. L. Allen, at Ottumwa, Iowa. She took the evening train here for that place and Mrs. Ritze after putting her on the cars, as he went to step off, caught his coat sleeve in some manner upon the railing, throwing him around against the cars which were by this time in quick motion. Frank Shoemaker caught hold of Ritze and by their united efforts they pulled the sleeve loose, but it was a narrow escape. The deceased lady, Mrs. Allen, had been here visiting several times and was of a very estimable character. She leaves three children, all sick, and her husband, who is a railroad man, broke his leg August 6. This would appear to be about as afflicted a family as often seen.

Death of Pearl Allen.
Pearl Allen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Allen, deceased, was born July 1, 1881, in Knox County, Ill., and passed out into eternity May 1, 1921, from the Rocky Mountain hospital, Denver, Colo., aged 39 years and 11 months.
When but a lad Pearl came with his parents to Iowa, locating about a mile north of the Iowa and Missouri state line, where he grew to manhood. He was married May 18, 1904, to Miss America Gaddis of near Bedford. Of this union they were given five boys, three of whom preceded the father to the other world. About two years ago Pearl and his little family moved to Drexel, Mo., from which place they went to Colorado for his health in March of this year. About three weeks ago he was taken to the Rocky Mountain hospital in Denver where he was operated on for appendicitis, death resulting May 1.
Pearl bears the name of a good, honest, hard-working man, a devoted husband and a loving father. He was a member in good standing of the Modern Woodman of this place, thereby wisely seeking to provide for his wife and children in the future, carrying $2000 insurance. The large number of Woodmen present at the funeral service bespeak of the esteem in which the deceased and his family are held by the order. Relatives who are left by him are his wife, two sons, Glen, age 8, and Howard, age 3; three brothers, Ray, Lloyd and Dean; one sister, Mrs. Cora Gaddis. James C. and Frank Allen are uncles. Also a large number of old neighbors and friends will miss his warm friendship and association.
Funeral services were held Thursday at the Baptist church, the funeral discourse being preached by Rev. W. M. Ballenger, after which burial took place in the Hopkins cemetery, the Woodman lodge having charge of the services at the grave.

When Melburn Archer last noticed Ellis he was astride a two by four working with the pulley. The Archers were working with the hogs when he fell. It is believed the chain broke and the pulley struck him in the head and stunned him. He showed no signs of having attempted to catch himself in the fall.
He was rushed to Missouri Methodist where Dr. C. W. Kirk of Hopkins and specialists upon examination said there was little hope for his life. Surgery was performed in an effort to save his life. His skull was fractured, vertebrae broken and his spine partially severed. He was conscious at times before his death and the members of his family were with him.
The Rev. O. S. Lincoln of Fayette, Mo., former pastor of the Christian church here, assisted by the pastor, A. V. Hart, conducted the funeral services at the First Christian church here Wednesday afternoon.
Mrs. Byron Clark and Mrs. Robert Andrews sang "Beyond the Sunset, Sunrise" and "In the Garden of Tomorrow." Mrs. William Weir was at the organ.
Mrs. James Godsey, Mrs. C. T. Baldwin and Mrs. Glen Humphrey of Maryville, Mrs. Eldon Andrews of Omaha, Mrs. Harley Andrews of Sioux City, Iowa, Mrs. Edward Turner, Mrs. B. R. Mathers and Mrs. Joe H. Wright were in charge of the flowers.
Pallbearers were Edgar Friend of Graham, Mo., C. T. Baldwin of Maryville, Harley Andrews of Sioux City, Iowa, Eldon Andrews of Omaha, B. R. Mathers and Robert Andrews. Burial was in the Hopkins Cemetery. The arrangements were made by the Swanson Funeral Home.
George Ellis Andrews, son of Joseph J. and Anna B. Andrews, was born in Hopkins, Mo., December 10, 1906, and departed this life in the Missouri Methodist hospital in St. Joseph, Mo., May 12, 1952.
He graduated from the Hopkins High School in 1924 and attended the Northwest Missouri State College, Maryville, three years.
He learned to fly and during World War II enlisted in the Reserve Corps and served three years as flight instructor at Spencer, Iowa, and at Hamilton and Brady, Texas.
He loved his family and in 1942 moved them to Texas so they could be near him while he served his country. He received his honorable discharge in July 1945.
Years ago he established the Andrews Tower Service as his business and in 1946 returned with his family to Maryville, Mo., to resume his work.
At an early age he became a Christian and a member of the Hopkins Christian church.
On January 15, 1927, he was joined in holy matrimony with Jennie E. Enders at New Hampton, Mo. She survives with their three sons, Ronald Ellis of Hopkins; Norman Edward and James Edward [Edwin] of the home; and two daughters, Delores Evelyn who teaches school in Breckenridge, Mo., and Jennie Elaine of the home. Also surviving him is his mother, Mrs. Anna B. Andrews of Hopkins, his sister, Mrs. David Cox (Helen) of El Segundo, Calif., his baby granddaughter, Maureen Andrews, and daughter-in-law, Mrs. Ronald Andrews (Darlene) of Hopkins.
He was a devoted and loving son, husband and father and will be greatly missed by his family and a host of friends in his wide acquaintance in an area of four states.
Your editors have known Ellis a long time. It was in his home where your editor lived when he came to Hopkins in 1930. Your co-editor attended grade and high school with him. We were in the graduating class of 1924 and Ellis is the first member of that class to be called in death. His son, Jim, will be graduated from Maryville high school this Thursday night. We can hardly believe Ellis is gone. . . thought he'd always be around as he was so full of vim and vigor. A great guy who will long be remembered for the fun he got out of living, and for the pleasure he brought to others.

Pioneer Hopkins Woman Called To Her Reward
Mrs. Nancy Attebeery [Attebery], 84 years old, passed away last Wednesday night at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Elta Booze, 7 miles west of Hopkins. A month ago she fell from her chair while reading, breaking her hip, and this no doubt hastened her death.
Funeral services were conducted Friday afternoon by her pastor, Rev. Ray Dick, at the Hopkins Baptist church and burial was made in the Hopkins cemetery.
Nancy Jane McClintic was born July 7, 1850, at Peru, Iowa, and departed this life May 29, 1935 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Elta Booze, near Hopkins, at the age of 84 years, 10 months and 22 days.
August 23, 1868, she was united in marriage to Uriah S. Atteberry at Union Star, De Kalb county, Missouri.
Most of her life was spent in Missouri, having lived more than 50 years in Nodaway county, being a resident of Hopkins and vicinity.
To this union 11 children were born, 7 having preceded her in death. Her husband passed away March 9, 1931. Since the death of her husband she has been tenderly cared for in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Booze. During her last illness all of her children were with her and everything loving hands could do was done to relieve her suffering. Although for a number of years her health has been very poor and her body feeble she was patient and never thought her burden more than she could bear.
In young womanhood she confessed her faith in Jesus and united with the Baptist church, clinging to that faith through all the years and expressing her desire and readiness to meet her Savior.
She will be sadly missed by all who knew her. The living children are Mrs. Sarah Mobley, of Essex, Iowa; Mrs. Elsie De Voe of Missouri Valley, Iowa; Shelton Atteberry, of Hopkins, Mo., and Mrs. Elta Booze, of Clearmont, Mo. She is also survived by 11 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren and one sister, Mrs. Ruth Marshall of Alma, Nebr., besides a number of other relatives and many friends.
Mother will never be forgotten,
Never will her memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
Of the happy home she made.
We loved her, yes, we loved her.
But the Savior loved her more;
So the angels sweetly called her
To that bright and happy shore.
It was hard to part with mother,
Oh, so hard to see her go;
But we all will try to meet her,
Where we ne'er shall part no more.
[Note: The last name is spelled Attebery on the family headstone.  Her maiden name is sometimes spelled McClintock.]
