FUNERAL OF MR. SCROGGIN

Hubert Scroggin, Killed by Lightning, to be Buried Thursday

MT. PULASKI, Aug. 1 - The announcement of the death of Mr. Hubert Scroggin by lightning has caused a profound sensation. He was a model young man and had a host of friends. The funeral will be held at the residence, two and one-half miles south of this city, Thursday, August 2, at 10 a.m., Elders L. M. Robinson and C. B. Dabney officiating.

Hubert Wilford Scroggin was aged 24 years, 4 months, and one day. He leaves, besides his father, sisters and brothers, a young wife, the daughter of Mr. Monroe Shoup, and two children, a boy and a girl. He had been stacking oats, and the accident occurred at about 2 p.m. H wife first noticed that lightning had fired the shed under which he had sought protection, and she roused the hired man, James Glose, by crying out: "husband has been killed! He is burning up!" Glose ran to the assistance of Mr. Scroggin, whose clothing had been burned off, and found that he was dead and that his body was so hot that he could not handle it. The face was only slightly disfigured, but there was an n ugly gash on his head, probably made by falling. He was past all help when found. Coroner Hill went over this morning and held an inquest with the aid of W. C. McMasters, J. W. Bozarth, Al O'Connor, M. Kincaid, L. Bowers, and John Buckles, and the verdict was that he came to his death by a lightning stoke.

He attended school in the old Logan County court house building in the public square, now a Lincoln shrine, and, on his recent visit here in November, visited the historic structure as it is now restored. In early manhood, he learned the banking business in the Scroggin bank, owned by his father.

On January 6, 1889, he was united in marriage with Mrs. Grace Foster. Though there were no children born to this union, Mr. and Mrs. Scroggin raised five children. In 1891, they moved to Sullivan, Ill., where Mr. Scroggin established a bank. After about 20 years there, they located in Missouri and remained ten years, going then to Harrisburg, Ark. He became a member of the Christian church and Odd Fellows lodge in Auxvasse, Mo. Less than two years ago he made a special trip to his old home city to receive a 50-year Masonic medal, which he prized highly. By his large number of friends, he was known to be a man who was deeply interested in those less fortunate than himself, and he will be greatly missed. Decedent is survived by his wife, Mrs. Grace Foster Scroggin; two sisters, Mrs. Susan Suttle of Placentia, Calif., and Mrs. Edna Anderson of Lincoln, Ill; one brother, T. A. Scroggin; and one step-sister, Mrs. Erma Maurie, Mount Pulaski.

The remains arrived in Mount Pulaski Sunday evening and were taken to the Schahl Funeral Home where funeral services were held at 2:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 28, conducted by Rev. J. Wayne Staley, pastor of the Christian church. Two hymns, "Does Jesus Care" and "Abide With Me", were sung by Mrs. Fred Mayer jr. and Mrs. Everett Beidler, with Mrs. J. H. Stuart as organ accompanist.

LEONARD K. SCROGGIN.

Starting out in life with the desire of leaving a record behind him of actions and deeds that should benefit mankind, Leonard K. Scroggin, perhaps the oldest native resident of Central Illinois, achieved not only his great desire, but also that substantial success which almost invariably comes to those who follow the simple rules of rigid honesty in deeds and words and who are not afraid of work. He resolved that he would never tell a lie and those of his lifelong friends who are left know he has kept his resolve. Another resolve was that he would never acquire a debt which he could not pay, and this, too, is a resolve he has ever kept, as his substantial increase in wealth has shown, nearly all his holdings being farming or city properties, all of which are without encumbrance. Of the earlier settlers of the state few are left who knew it as a territory, yet Mr. Scroggin was born just one month after it became a state and he has been an active participant in its development. He was born in Gallatin county, Illinois, January 25, 1819, being the eldest child in a family of ten children born to Carter T. and Phoebe (Shelby) Scroggin, pioneer settlers of the territory.

Carter T. Scroggin was a son of Humphrey Scroggin, of Kentucky, who was, in the language of an early historian, "one of the boys of '76 who did service in George Washington's colonial armies, his home the colony of North Carolina, and was at Yorktown to look with pleasure on the thousands of Cornwallis' redcoats as they laid down their arms." Carter Scroggin married Phoebe Shelby in the territory of Illinois in 1818. He passed away in the sixty-fourth year of his age in 1859. His wife followed him seventeen years later, being in her eightieth year lack­ing one month at the time of her death. Mr. Scroggin was of Welsh descent as was his wife, who was a native of Tennessee. He followed farming all his life and at the time of his death owned over six hundred acres of land. He was a man of decided strength of character and of rigid honesty and was one of the leading men of the community in which he lived.

Leonard K. Scroggin worked upon his father's farm during his boyhood days, acquiring an education through the medium of the subscription schools, which were the only schools in vogue at that time. Until he was married he remained with his parents, assisting them in the development of their farm which they had secured under land patents from the government when first they came to settle in the new western territory. It was in the month of March, 1841, that Leonard K. Scroggin and Lavina Buckles were united in marriage. She was a daughter of Robert and Mary Buckles, natives of Tennessee, who had come into Illinois in early pioneer days. She was the fifth child in a family of thirteen children and was born in this state in 1825. To this union there was born a family of ten children. The eldest, Alfred C., was born in May, 1842, and married Miss Frances Phillips, a native of Illinois. They, now make their home in Logan county and are the parents of three children, all of whom are married. Mary, born in November, 1843, became the wife of William Gasaway, of Illinois, and the mother of three children. She died in Sumner county, Kansas. Angeline, born in 1845, married John Rothwell, of Mount Pulaski, and is the mother of two sons and two daughters. Eveline, born in 1847, married George Veal of this state and became the mother of one child. Her death occurred five years after here marriage. Annie, born in 1849, married John Wells of this state and died in 1906. She was the mother of one child. Armanda J., born in October, 1852, married Martin Luther Turley, who now lives in Kansas and she is the mother of three children. Sarah Ellen, born in 1857, married W. G. Whittle, of Mount Pulaski township, and died in 1906. She had two children. Susan, born in 1859, married Henry Suttle, of Kenney, Illinois, where she now resides. She is the mother of three children. L. B. Scroggin, born in 1860, married Grace Lyttle, a daughter of a prominent family of Illinois. They live in Arkansas and have no children. Benjamin F., born in 1863, married Arthilda Gasa­way, of this state, and lives in Nebraska. He is the father of three children. Mrs. Lavina Scroggin passed away in January, 1863, follow­ing the birth of her youngest son. In March, 1864, Mr. Scroggin married Mrs. Rhoda A. Pickering, the widow of Thomas Pickering, by whom she had a daughter, Mrs. Mary E. Maurie, who is now a widow and makes her home with Mr. and Mrs. Scroggin. Four children were born of the second marriage, namely : George C., born April 15, 1865, died in infancy. Thomas A., born in 1867, now lives in Mount Pulaski. He wedded Mary Wisen­berger and had five children, four of whom are still living. Hubert W., born in April, 1871, married Luella Shoup, by whom he had two children, and his death occurred in July, 1894. Edna K., born in 1876, is . the wife of A. L. Anderson, an attorney of Lincoln, and they have two children.

Mrs. Scroggin, who bore the maiden name of Rhoda A. Girtman, was born in Lake Fork township, this county, on the 6th of October, 1835, and comes of German ancestry. Her parents, George and Mary A. Girtman, were among the pioneer settlers of Logan county, first locat­ing in Mount Pulaski, where they entered land which was later purchased by Carter Scroggin. Later they took up their abode in Lake Fork township, there spending the remainder of their lives.

After his first marriage, in 1841, Mr. Scroggin located upon land which he had entered from the government in Mount Pulaski Township, having secured forty acres of prairie land and a like amount of timber land. Since that time he has resided upon this property and as time has passed he has steadily added to his possessions, so that he now has ten hundred and twenty acres of very valuable farming land on sec­tions 26, 27, 34 and 35, Mount Pulaski township. Although almost ninety-two years of age he still oversees the operation of this vast farm and attends to his various other business interests, which are extensive. He is a man of remarkable business ability and through his own well directed efforts has become one of the wealthiest men of central Illinois. In Logan and adjoining counties he owns forty-five hundred acres of very valuable land ; has ten thousand acres in Canada and the same amount in Minnesota ; four thousand acres in Nebraska ; two thousand acres in Kansas ; one thousand acres in Missour. and three hundred and twenty acres in Indiana.

This vast estate has been acquired by following the dictates of his sound business instincts and the motto which he made early in life : Never tell a lie and never acquire a debt that could not be paid. It is a splendid record—one of which anyone might well feel proud. Yet Mr. Scroggin thinks not so much of the wealth he has acquired as of the means whereby it has come, maintaining always that the modern methods of acquiring wealth, some of which are questionable, give no pleasure to the possessor if one has wronged his fellowmen in securing it. In his younger days he knew Lincoln, Douglas, Baker, Logan and still others who made history in the last half century, and among such men as these he learned the lessons of life which have stood him in good stead throughout his long and honorable life. In 1872 he founded the Scroggin Bank of Mount Pulaski and is yet identified with that institution. A lifelong democrat, he has always voted for the candidate of that party at every presidential election since Buchanan. But once did he bolt the ticket and that was during the first campaign of the advocate of free silver, when he voted with those supporting the gold standard. With his wife Mr. Scroggin is a member of the Christian church of Mount Pulaski and the lives of the couple are actuated by their Christian belief and they are worthy recipients of the esteem in which both are held.

PIONEER LADY DEAD

Mrs. Mary Ann Buckles, of Mt. Pulaski Township, Passes Away

Mrs. Mary Ann Buckles, wife of Wm. R. Buckles, died at the family home four miles west of Mt. Pulaski, at 2 o'clock a.m., Thursday, Oct. 29, 1891, aged 70 years, 11 months, and 2 days. Funeral services occur today at the Buckles church at 11 o'clock. Interment in Carlyle Cemetery, and services conducted by Elder A. J. Kain of Springfield.

The deceased was taken suddenly ill Monday, declining to enervating congestion, until the end. Only the week before she was in town in apparently fair health. Her death was so unlooked for that but few relatives were present at her demise.

Her son, though telegraphed for at his home in Hiawatha, Kansas, arrived too late to meet once more the dearest of all earthly love, a mother. Mrs. Buckles was of a pioneer family and, in her early days, this was a vast unsettled prairie. Her companion, Wm. R. Buckles, who died Feb. 11, 1885, was among the most sturdy builders up of this now prosperous country. They were an exemplary pair of good citizens, who had undergone the cares and hardships of early pioneer life, leaving a goodly inheritance, in example, as well as in the substantials of life, to their offspring. Both were members of the Christian church. Their living children are Henry H., of Oxford, Kan; Mrs. Darrell H. Ridgeway, of Copeland settlement, Mt. Pulaski township; Robert F., an attorney of Hiawatha, Kansas; and Carter T., who has always lived at home and is single. A daughter, Mrs. James W. Wright, died April 2, 1878. Mrs. Buckles was one of ten children of Mr. and Mrs. Carter T. Scroggin, seven of who survive, namely: L. K., Russell P., Marion, of Sheridan, Oregon; Thomas J. and Carter T., Mrs. John Buckles, and Mrs. C. K. Lucas. The deceased brothers and sisters are Humphrey, who died in 1856; Mrs. John H. Lucas, in 1882; and Mrs. W. R. Buckles, the subject of this article. The husband of the deceased, Wm. R. Buckles, was one of 15 sons and daughters born of Robert and Mary Buckles, respectively deceased in 1866 and 1887, all of whom grew to man and womanhood, namely: Wm. R., Jeremiah, John, Mrs. L. K. Scroggin, Mrs. S. M. Copeland, Andrew, Peter, Chalton C., Mrs. Abner Copeland, Robert, Wiley, Henry H., Mrs. Henry Freeman, Mrs. Dan Handlin, and Mrs. Wm. H. Sams. Those deceased respectively are Peter, Mrs. L. K. Scroggin, Chalton C., Jeremiah, Wm. R., and Riley. History will mark the pathway of this family and name in the generations to follow. The pioneer of early statehood will be honored and his worth and achievements celebrated in centuries to come. Then the song will be, all hail to our ancestors of the 19th century.

She was buried at Carlyle Cemetery, Mount Pulaski, Logan County, Illinois.
