[NF4959] Concord Items July 10, 1879

Some days since we met "Archie" in town, and were glad of it, for it always makes us feel Like we had been at a wedding to meet him and look upon his cheerful, glowing countenance, so fragrant with smiles that it charms even the saddest of sad. He said the west end against the world for startling events according to Specs, and while we were about to lay our pencil down aside for a single week, having no important matter to chronicle, the news comes to us of one of the most disgraceful scenes that has ever marred the history of the west end.
The parties engaged in the affair are all well known citizens of this county, and have hitherto enjoyed a reasonable fair reputation as peaceable, law abiding men. Within the past year, Adam and John Pence became rivals in a courtship for the hand of Miss Jane Zimmerman, and a few months since Adam gained the much coveted prize, and they were duly married. Since that time bitter hostility has grown up between the parties, which culminated on the evening of July «b»4«/sup»th, «/b»in a savage fight between the belligerents. They met at a moonlight dance in Huntoon*s grove, north of Millerstown, and just as the dance was closed for the night, the signal for the general pitch was given, and a general fight between five stalwart men, in which clubs, pistols, knuckles, slingshots, and boots were the weapons, ensued. George and Adam Pence, two brothers, fought John and Ampey Pence, also brothers, and Van Scott. But for the interference of bystanders one or more of the parties would doubtless have been killed; as it was, some of them were placed under the care of physicians, and will so remain for a time. As to who the attacking party was we have no knowledge; we only know that for the force and brutality the like has not been in the west end since the time of the Foleys, sixty years ago. Two of the men reside in Concord and the remaining three in Johnson. Why send money away for missiOnary purposes when we need it so much worse at home?

A sensational divorce case has been filed in the common pleas cour t. It is styled Benjamin F Deal vs Emma J Deal, grounds adultry. In his pe tition, Benjamin sets forth matters smewhat in this manner. They were marr ied in November 1891, and shortly thereafter a child was born to them. Bef ore the marriage, she was asked who the guilty person was, and she replie d, " If you were stung by a hive of bees, could you tell which one did it? ". Benjamin was finally picked out and the ceremony was solemnized. In jan uary 1892 he was taken to the penitentiary for forgery, and before his ti me had expired, another child was born to his wife. In this case he accus es her of adultry with William McAlexander, of Adams two. Shortly before t he birth of this last child, she becan proceedings against Benjamin Deal f or a divorce, but circumstances necessitated her dropping the case. Now Be njamin thinks it is time Emma is sent on her way rejoicing.

[NF6762] MARRIAGE: Clark Co. Probate Court, Springfield, OH Marriage Record Bo ok #16 Page 573: William Sager and MRS. Nancy J. Sager (also written as N ancy J. Sagers) License to marry 19 Dec. 1896. Married at Tremont Ci ty 20 December 1896 by W. S. Neese, Justice of the Peace. Filed & Record ed Jany 4, 1897.
NOTE: Mrs. Nancy J. Sager was actually Nancy Jane (Smith) Sager, the wi dow of William Sager's brother REUBEN SAGER. William's obituary lists Reu ben Sager's children as being William's. Even the tombstones in Mt. Calva ry Cemetery in Tremont City make it sound as if they were William's, but t he family, the obituaries of the children, and the 1860, 1870, & 1880 U. S. Censuses list them as children of Reuben and Nancy and not William. Na ncy was about 53 years old at the time of her marriage to her brother in-l aw, William Sager.

When applying for a marriage license to marry William Sager, she is list ed as MRS. Nancy J. Sager. She would have been age 53 at this tim e, so (I assume) all of her children would have been from her first marria ge at about age 15 to William's older brother Reuben.
The first marriage (to Reuben Sager) is recorded in the Champaign Coun ty Probate Court Records in Urbana, OH Marriage Book Volume F Page 6 2: Married: 28 May 1857. The second marriage (to Reuben's brother Will iam Sager) is recorded in the Clark County Probate Court Records Book # 16 Page 573: Married: 20 December 1896.

Concord Items January9, 1879
Midway between the beautiful villages of St. Paris and Millerstown, near the site of the old Dutch meeting house, stands one of the handsomest and most pleasantly situated country residences in the west end. Not only does the external appearance of the building attract the attention of the traveler, but all the surroundings are marked for their convenience and general comfort. It stands at the top of the many hills that skirt the southern boundary of the Nettle creek valley and commands one of the most lovely landscapes to be found in that locality. It is the home of our life-long friend, Mr. Lemuel Pence, a former citizen of Concord township. Having received a very cordial invitation to be present on New Year*s day, we went thither and found near one hundred persons assembled to witness the marriage of his only daughter and niece. We found the interior of this elegant home duly arranged for the occasion. Soon after our arrival we were assigned the care of the many presents donated to the happy pairs. Promptly at half-past two o*clock the organ sent fortha beautiful wedding march, under the direction of Mrs. Dr B. F. Baker. Meantime the brides and grooms, under the direction of their attendants, were wending their way through the various rooms to the spacious parlor, where Rev. J. Steiner, assisted by Dr. J. F. Marlay, officiated, and Mr. J. W. Byler of Kingston, and Miss Allie Pence and Mr. Rush R. Clawson, of Butler county, and Miss Colon C. Hair were united in holy bonds of matrimony. Attendants, Mr. B. F. Miller, of West Liberty, and Sallie Powell, of Concord, and Mr. Henry Kurtz, of Wayne county, and Miss Ella Vail, of Hamilton. Among the presents we noticed a very fine silver butter dish to Mr. Byler by Messrs. Miller brothers, Weirman, Gerrard, Mast, Winters and Conrey; two fruit dishes by Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Snapp; two glass pitchers by Mr. and Mrs. M. P. Arrowsmith; one family Bible by Mr. Henry Byler; one clock by B. D. Byler and F. Knippenberg; two wall pockets, donors unknown; two silver butter knives by Sylvester Pence; silver spoons by M. Kurt; two fascinators by Mr. and Mrs. S. T McMorran; two dozen napkins each by Mr. and Mrs. I. Arrowsmith and Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Brubaker; one castor each by Allie to Colon and Colon to Allie, Immediately after the conclusion of the ceremony the parties repaired to an adjoining room, where the presents were presented by T.S. McFarland with appropriate remarks, assisted by Maj. T S. McMorran. Then came one of the most excellent dinners that it has been our pleasure to look upon. The day was as pleasant as heart could wish, and every one present enjoyed the occasion to the fullest extent. New Year's day, 1879, will long be remembered as one of the most pleasant in the history of those participated. The reception was given at the residence of Mr. Henry Byler, near Kingston, on the eve of the 2nd. .
