Everett Daily Herald 2-16-1901 Seattle, Feb.16- Mrs. Alma Pauline Keefe, daughter of John Sporck, a well known pioneer and wealthy property owner of this city, committed suicide by shooting with a 38-caliber revolver in the front yard of her residence yesterday. She had been in a state of dispondency for more than a week past. Out of a family of four, three have met death under circumstances which in each instance indicated that he had been foully dealt with. He was a furniture dealer in Everett and arrived in this city one afternoon to make purchases for his stock. On the following morning his hat was found on Vesler dock and no trace of his whereabouts was ever found. He was known to have had a considerable sum of money in his possession, and the police at the time advanced the theory that he was murdered and robbed on the water front by persons who afterwards deposited his body in the bay. His life was insured and the insurance companies, accepting this theory of the disappearance, are understood to have paid the claim of the widow.

King, G.A.R. veteran who died at his home near Snohomish May 6 at the age of 88 years, Friday aftrnoon, D.F. Sexton, adjutant of O.B. Morton post No. 10 G.A. R., read the following obituary, entitled "The Passing of a Comrade": "John R. King was born near Lebanon, Boone county, Indiana, March 4, 1837. At the time Indiana as a state was in its infancy and but sparsely settled. At the age of nineteen he, with his father's family, migrated to Wisconsin which was this time comparatively a wilderness country. "Remaining in Wisconsin for a short time he changed his location to Winona, Minn., where at the age of 21 in the year 1858, the year in which Minnesota was admitted as a state, he married Miss Carrie Knowles of Winona. To this union there were born six children, four of whom are living, Charles E. of Snohomish, Mrs. Nettie Russell of California, Chancy A. of Snohomish and Mrs. Katherine Simmons of Seattle. On July 23, 1862, impelled by a spirit of loyalty and duty to his country, he entered its service for the preservation of the union, enlisting in the Sixth Minnesota Volunteer infantry for a term of three years or during the war but his constitution not being robust enough to endure the privation, exposures and hardships of active army life, he was discharged from service for physical disability before the expiration of the full time of enlistment. After his first wife was taken from him by death, he was joined in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Milner December 4, 1877, in Lyon county, Minnesota, to whom were born two children, Myrtle, now Mrs. Neimeyer of Kenmore, Wash., and Louis M. King of Everett. This Mrs. King departed this life at their home ten years ago. In addition to the children enumerated there also survived near relatives of Comrade King, sixteen grandchildren, ten great grand children and one sister, Mrs. Hanley of Minnesota. By the death of this comrade of the Civil war not only a patriot as a soldier but a patriot as a citizen has passed from life's conflicts, for he ever stood for law and order, ready to defend the principals of justice and right. He was not one of your neutral kind; you could always know where to find him when questions of morality and good citizenship were involved. He was a devoted member of the First Methodist Episcopal church in Snohomish. Although his life was mostly spent on the frontiers, where his opportunities for a acquiring an education when young were very limited, by thoughtful observation and reading he became possessed of a liberal fund of information. Thirty-six years ago, in the year 1889, he moved to what then Washington territory, and located near Snohomish where by perseverance and taxing his strength to the utmost, he converted a portion of the wilderness into a comfortable and pleasant home, where he lived, enjoying the respect and kind and affectionate regards of his neighbors and numerous friends until called by death. He became a member of Morton post No. 10, G.A.R., June 25, 1892, and during the time since, he served efficiently and acceptably as post commander. He was ever and always a true comrade. By the passing of this, another comrade of the Civil war, we are admonished that the reaper is at work gathering in the remnant of those who responded to their country's call that the Star Spangled Banner, the emblem of liberty, might continue to float as of yore over a united country." 1900 Snohomish Co.

The body was shipped by Purdy & Sons to Waterloo for burial. Snohomish County Tribune 3-31-1899 Dr. Stafford was summoned last Tuesday morning to investigate the death of Wm. Kingman, which occured at Dubuque's mill, near Monroe Monday night. An inquest was held over the body of Kingman, and verdict returned to the effect that Kingman came to his death by blows and kicks inflicted by Burns. The facts of the case in short are these: Kingman who was a blacksmith at Monroe, and Burns, a millman, married sisters, the Allen girls. For some time a family row had been brewing, and once before they had come to blows. Monday morning Kingman and his wife went down to the Dubuque mill where Burns was at work, and uprailed him for slandering Mrs. Kingman. He drew from his pocket a hunting knife in a sheathe and attempted to strike Burns. Failing in this he threw the knife away and began stiking with his fists. At this Burns made a plunge at him, and knocked him down, and whle he lay on the ground, kicked him in the face knocking him senseless. Kingman soon came to, and walked to the Salem Wood's place, but about two o'clock again became insensless and died at ten o'clock that night of hemorrhage of the brain. The coroner's inquest was held Tuesday morning and in the afternoon the preliminary hearing before Justice Stretch was given. Burns was bound over to the superior court with a bond of $1000 which he readily secured. The trial will probably be held during the April term of the superior court. Monroe IOOF Cemetery KINGMAN Harry C. 7/4/1893 b/Ca. 10/13/1976 KINGMAN Jane 2/9/1873 3/3/1959 (nee Allen) d/o George Allen KINGMAN William Snohomish County Tribune 1-26-1900 Last Sunday night William Kingsley, a logger, was killed by the northbound passenger at Machias about 8 p.m. The coroner's jury impanelled to investigate the case on Monday found that the deceased had come to his death by being struck by the train. It appears that Kingsey had "called" for a dance at Machias all Saturday night getting no sleep whatever. Sunday he was around with the boys all day until about 7:30 when it is supposed he started for home to go to bed. The hypothesis is after this that he went down the track a little way and then sat down to rest and dozed off., by or near the track and that when the train came thundering along he started up half awake and in some way got in from of the engine and thus killed. The fireman testified that he thought they had struck something and upon their going back to the place Kingsley's body was found there. The deceased had been in Machias aobut three months in the employ of Smith and Miniger, loggers. He was about 35 years of age and looked upon by his associates as being a steady workman. He was a social member of the K.O.T.M. which lodge took charge of the body. He had no relatives as far as known in this state, his relatives residing at Grove,Michigan. Snohomish County Tribune 11-1-1895 This morning sometime between 1 and 3 o'clock, Wm. Wroth, alias "Omaha Bill," shot and killed Wm. KINNEY, known as "Texas Jack," at the front door of the Gold Leaf saloon. Texas Jack, who has been working in a logging camp east of here, came to town last evening, made some purchases and then proceeded to load up with fire water, and resorted to the Gold Leaf. Wm. Wroth, who lately became a co-partner with Della Stone, the proprieter of the Golden Leaf, tends bar at that resort nights, and it seems often imbibes himself. Between Wroth and Kinney there had been a standing fued, and this was aggravated last night by the liquor both had imbibed. After a good deal of hot words, Wroth threatened shooting, and Kinney not departing, he carried out his threat, firing three shots, the second of which struck Kinney and pierced his heart. He staggered about fourty feet from the door and fell dead. The officers were called and arrested Wroth, and he is now in the county jail. Coroner Rogers came up this morning and this afternoon summoned Messrs. Warner, Whitfield, Cole, Foss, Boyle and Spurrell to sit as a jury of inquest, which is listening to testimony as the Tribune goes to press. Snohomish County Tribune 8-29-1897 Jonas P. Kisner died very suddenly at his home Saturday evening, August 14. He had gone home from down town about 5 o'clock, and was sitting in his chair, conversing with Mrs. Kisner and stroking the head of a pet kitten, when he suddenly caught his breath, gasped and was gone.

As a young man he removed to Wisconsin and spent mot of his life in that state, Michigan and Minnesota.

The Herald reporter and three other parties started for the scene of the disaster on their wheels, and arriving for the point of the disaster, which proved to be at the foot of the hill where the high trestle leads from the Cathcart road across the marsh level this side. After coming in sight of the wreck, another logging engine was discovered coming down the steep grade, and in a moment more it was down the steep grade, and piled on top of the other engine, an immense cloud of steam arising instantaneously from the mass of debris piled in the ravine. On arriving at the spot it was discovered that Engineer Bakeman, on the second engine and the fireman had escaped injury by jumping when they saw the inevitable disaster awaiting them ahead, and they luckily escaped with slight scars or bruses. The first engine had come down with a train of loaded cars, five in number. and the engine is supposed to have jumped the track, or the rails have spread, the coupling breaking letting the cars run on ahead, while the engine crashed through the trestle into the marsh 20 feet below and at the same point that a train ran off a year ago. The engineer, M.J. Riley was buried beneath the engine, killing him instantly, and also scalding and inflicting such injuries upon A.L. KITTLE, a brakeman, that he has since died. The third man, a scaler for the Seattle Cedar company, Frank Tomlinson, of Ballard, being least hurt of all, and who was this p.m. sent to Seattle hospital. The primary cause of the accident seems to have been a greased track on the down grade, or a failure of the brake, to work, and the extra strain that spread the rails and threw the engine upon the ties and from thence to the ground below. The wreck is a fearful scene of destruction and crowds have been visiting it all day. Engineer Riley's family live in Evertt, on Norton ave, and Tomlinson's home is at Ballard.

Mr. Bakeman found in his humble little home, about fifty or sixty violins of unusual merit and made of all kinds of materials including vine maple, cedar and many other native woods. Although Mr. Knudson's talent was little known to the people of this county, it is probable that his fame is not altogether that unknown amoung violin and musical experts, for he had an exhibit at the Lewis and Clarke exposition and among many other marks of recogition received a silver medal.
