Maier -- Agnes Hastings-Engleman-Maier
"A long time resident of Diamond City has passed
away. Agnes Maier died of natural causes at the home of her granddaughter,
Elizabeth Flynn, in Corona, CA on April 26, 2007, one day shy of her
95th birthday. Due to her poor health, she was living with her daughter,
Joy Hathaway, in Anaheim, CA, since September of 2005.
Agnes and Joy were fortunate to have visited family and friends in Diamond
City for two and a half months before they returned to CA in March 2007.
In her youth and until 1953, Agnes lived in the Riverton, Farragut,
and Hamburg, Iowa areas and still has relatives in these areas.
Agnes had a very versatile life as she held many different job positions
during her long life, from being a State Health Technician, writing
for a newspaper and horse magazine, to working on the City Council in
Diamond City, AR. She took great pride in her work in getting the newer
system implemented in Diamond City. She loved her dancing and participating
in skits at the Monarch Club. She was a tiny, little lady with beautiful
blue eyes who could be as feisty as anyone, if need be, but also as
caring and wonderful as a person could ask for. As for me, her daughter,
she is one of the most unforgettable people I have ever known. She has
always been a great inspiration to me and I have a great admiration
for her.
Agnes was preceded in death by her first husband, Charles Engleman,
of Anahem, CA, second husband, Kenneth Maier of Diamond City, AR, her
eldest son, Leighton Engleman of Mendocino, CA, grandson Adam Engleman
of Little Rock, AR, and great granddaughter, Moriah Joy Hathaway, of
Beaverton, OR.

of Dianond City, AR, Ronald Englemand of Jewett, TX, Charles Engleman
of Ardmore, OK, and Joy Hathaway of Anaheim as well as 15 grandchildre,
10 great grandchildren, and two great great grandchildren. She will
be greatly missed by her family and many, many friends.

He died Oct 26, 1899 in Page County, Iowa. On Sept 24, last, he fell
in his room and broke his right ankle, after which he was confined to

stock. Moses was brought up in Pennsylvania and moved to Ohio where
he reared his family and then emigrated to Iowa with a family of eleven
children when the country was yet new.
Nazer was a worthy representative of his family, and having secured
a good education for those days at Zanesville, he came to this state
well prepared to be one of its strongest citizens both mentally and
physically. He lived on a farm in Page County five miles southwest of
Siam where he early always held some office of trust with the ???. In
the prime of his life an accident befell him and left him afflicted
the rest of his life, and this, together with his retiring disposition
deprived him of a prominence among men and a worldly success which his
ability and manly qualities would have forced unto him. He was a member
of the Plum Lodge [Siam, Iowa]. Burial was in the Shearer Cemetery. |

Rogers, Thos. J. – Another horrible suicide.
A wedding fete turned into a mournful funeral, is last evening’s
record. Thos J. Rogers aged 27 and Miss M. Inez Plank aged 18 years,
were to have been married at 6 o’clock pm. Just before the time
for the happy event he donned himself in his best apparel, at the home
of his sister, Mrs Chas Hevelin, in south Clarinda, and when ready to
start he asked his sister, who had opposed the marriage, to accompany
him to the home of the waiting bride only two blocks distant, then ten
minutes late, where the minister and guests were awaiting his coming.
She refused, and as he remarked, “you will regret this,”
she went out into the garden where her husband was. It seems that he
then disrobed himself of his outer garments and put on his ordinary
clothes. In the parlor he placed a 22-cliber revolver to his head and
pulled the trigger, the ball entering above the right temple, passing
through the base of the brain, and virtually blowing the top of his
head off. It seems he used both hands to make sure of his aim, as one
was badly powder-burned and the other spattered with blood. Mr and Mrs
Hevelin rushed to the house after the report of the revolver and found
him lying on the floor apparently lifeless. They called Thos Malone
from across the street, who found him breathing but motionless, and
he lay in this condition for two hours and a half when he passed away.
Mr Rogers came from Mound City, Mo., last fall and has since lived with
his sister. He was rather a listless, idle young man but not given to
bad habits. Himself and sister have received money at stated times from
their grandfather’s estate, and he believed in having a good time.
He comes from a respectable family and his father is said to be well
off.
He was quite a lady’s man with his class, and
prided himself on easily winning their good graces. The real cause of
the rash act outside of his sister’s objection to his marriage
is not known, but is said will soon develope, which is supposed to have
been a similar engagement with another lady in Missouri. It is indeed
a sad affair. Miss Plank is nearly heart-broken and requires special
care since. Funeral will be held tomorrow.
