Michigan mother given Dog survives
car seat instead of ticket 200 foot fall
EMMETT TOWNsHIP, Mich.
(aP) — a Michigan officer who
pulled over a vehicle because a 5-yearold girl wasn’t secured in a booster
seat decided a ticket wouldn’t cut it.
Instead, Emmett Township public
safety officer Ben Hall bought her a
seat.
“a ticket doesn’t solve the situation,” Hall told WXMI-TV. “What
solves it is the child being in the
booster seat like she should be. It was
the easiest 50 bucks I ever spent.”
Hall was on patrol in the southern
Michigan community recently when
he pulled over the vehicle after some-
one reported that it had an unsecured
young child inside.
alexis deLorenzo and her daughter were riding with a friend, and Hall
said deLorenzo told him that she
had fallen on hard times and couldn’t
afford a booster seat.
“I was in a spot where I could help
her,” Hall said.
deLorenzo said she knew that they
could have been ticketed, but instead,
Hall told her to meet him at a WalMart, where he bought her the seat.
“It changed my life,” deLorenzo
said. “I’m never going to forget him.
and neither will my daughter.”
90-year-old takes to
the sky for birthday
The daytona Beach News-Journal
reports the flight wasn’t out of the ordinary for the 5-foot-tall Jones. For her
80th birthday, she went skydiving. When
she turned 85, she flew a glider.
Jones has been taking flying lessons
with schneider for months “just for the
fun of flying.”
she has also snorkeled with seals in
the Galapagos Islands and gone on safari
in africa. and she always takes the stairs
to her third-floor apartment.
PaLM COasT, Fla. (aP) — a central Florida woman celebrated her 90th
birthday by flying a four-seat Cessna.
Billy Jones had to sit on a pillow to see
out the windshield recently, but she took
off with flight instructor Kurt schneider
by her side and landed some 30 minutes
later at Flagler County airport.

BONNEVILLE, Ore. (aP) — a
Labradoodle named Gracie fell 200
feet off a cliff in Oregon and survived.
dog owner Michelle simmons says
Gracie and another dog were playing
on a trail in the Columbia River Gorge.
Gracie went over the side of the cliff.
simmons says they heard the dog
rolling, heard her hit the ground and
yelp, then nothing. They thought she
was dead and began an impromptu
memorial service. That’s when another
hiker came rushing up, saying the dog
was alive.
The Oregon Humane society’s
volunteer technical rescue team
responded. One member was lowered
down to Gracie and fitted her with a
harness and brought her to safety.
KPTV reports that the dog suffered
only scratches and bruises in her fall off
the steep trail.

Findlay founder and “stage king”
makes mark on state capital
EDITOR’S NOTE: This is from
a series written from 1959 to 1974
by the late R.L. Heminger, publisher and editor of The Courier.
By R.L. HEMINGER
Many people have heard of and
are acquainted with the Neil House
or Hotel in Columbus. The also know
of Neil avenue in the capital city.
But what they don’t know, in all
probability, is that the individual
whose name the hotel and the Columbus thoroughfare bears was one of
the founders of the city of Findlay.
He was William Neil, who was to
become one of the leading citizens
Passing Major
turns tide in
bloody battle
EDITOR’S NOTE: This series celebrating our heritage during the 150th
anniversary of the Civil War draws
primarily from wartime dispatches
credited to The Associated Press or
other accounts distributed through
the AP and other historical sources.
Confederate forces, though far outnumbered and ill-equipped, attacked
sleeping and encamped Union soldiers
on Oct. 19, 1864, at Cedar Creek in Virginia’s shenandoah Valley.
The Confederate charge, which
swept over Union fighters during the
fog-shrouded hours before dawn, shaped
up early on as a disaster for the North.
But the battle this week 150 years
ago in the Civil War was not yet over.
sounds of fighting drew the attention of fast-approaching Union Maj.
Gen. Philip sheridan, who rode into
the fray with reinforcements after a
trip to Washington, d.C., to confer with
authorities.
amid sheridan’s rallying cries, the
Union counterattacked and drove off the
Confederates in what would be one of
the bloodiest battles in the shenandoah
Valley.
at a cost of thousands of dead and
wounded soldiers on both sides, the
Union muscled its way to victory and
smashed the last major Confederate
resistance there.
The outcome, following the Union
capture of atlanta weeks earlier, provided another morale boost to the North
weeks before its voters would sweep
abraham Lincoln back into office for
a second term.
of Columbus.
On July 3, 1821, three men —
Joseph Vance, William Neil and
Elnathan Cory — filed the first land
entries for territory now forming the
area of Hancock County that was to
become the city of Findlay. Vance and
Cory later bought out the interest of
Neil.
“among the names that stand preeminently forth on the pages of history in connection with the pioneer
settlement and later development of
Columbus is that of William Neil,”
says the Clarke history of Franklin
County, of which Columbus is the
county seat.
Mr. Neil arrived in Columbus in
1818. For three years ahead of that he
had been a resident of Urbana, having
gone to that city from Kentucky in
1815.
It was at Urbana, as we shall
later see, that he became acquainted
with the Vance family. Mr. Neil was
a native of Virginia where he was
born in 1788. The Neil family move
to Kentucky when young William was
but four.
Mr. Neil was a stonemason by
trade, but following his removal to
Columbus became interested in other
undertakings.
His first business venture failed.
He entered into a partnership with
another individual to deal in flour.
They constructed a keel boat from
lumber and floated their cargo down
the scioto River into the Ohio and
then into the Mississippi to New
Orleans. The business, however,
turned out unsuccessfully and Mr.
Neil and his partner found themselves $6,000 in debt.
He became cashier of a bank in
Columbus and then bought the first
stage line to operate between Columbus and Granville, in Licking County,
the seat later of denison University.
This was the beginning of later extensive holdings in stage lines. He was
to become known as the “stage king”
of southern Ohio.
He bought other stage lines
including one to Wheeling, one to
Cleveland and one from Cleveland
to Buffalo. He also owned a line to
sandusky from Columbus through
delaware and Marion, one to Marietta, one to Cincinnati and one lead-

ing towards Indianapolis.
at one time, Mr. Neil was reputed
to own all the stage lines from Cumberland, Maryland, to st. Louis,
Missouri. He became associated
with david W. deshler, a prominent
Columbus leader, whose name also
was associated with a famous hotel
in the capital city later on.
“When railroad building became
a factor in Ohio’s development,”
says the Clarke history, “the company owned by Neil, Mr. deshler
and others built the first railroad to
Xenia, Ohio, completing the line in
1845.”
The company also built and operated railroads between Columbus and
Cleveland, Columbus and Indiana
points and others. The Pennsylvania
Railroad later took over most of these
rail lines, which are still operating
today, largely as freight systems.
“It is a well-known fact that no
other agency,” says the Clarke historical account, “had contributed in
so large and prominent a measure to
the development of the country as the
railroad construction of these early
days and in this connection, Mr. Neil
deserves much credit, giving large
financial support to so many railroad
lines which have been an important
factor in opening up different sections of the state.”
Mr. Neil at one time was associated with practically every line
leading out of the city of Columbus.
He was an energetic character, who
commanded large resources and who
proved a leader who laid much of the
foundation upon which the Columbus
of today is built.
DEP rescues
bear cub from
tree, cookie jar
RINGWOOd, N.J. (aP) — a frightened bear cub got its head stuck in an
oversized cookie jar while rummaging
through some trash and had to be rescued from a tree.
state Environmental Protection department spokesman Larry
Ragonese says the 6-month-old cub
apparently found the animal crackers
jar recently in Ringwood, near the New
york border.
as the 28-pound animal tried to eat
what remained in the jar, he apparently
pulled it over his head and it got stuck.
The cub became spooked when
approached and went up a tree, but got
wedged about 40 feet up.
dEP staffers arranged netting in
case the bear fell to the ground. after
the animal was tranquilized by a dEP
biologist, it was brought down and firefighters gingerly cut the jar off its head.

“Prop”
gun fends
off real
burglar
PITTsBURGH (aP) — a man
has been jailed on burglary and
related charges after Pittsburgh
police say he entered a home uninvited, and was subdued by a resident wielding a fake gun.
Online court records don’t list
an attorney for Kymarr Freeman,
23, of Pittsburgh.
The resident told police he was
wearing headphones while playing
video games recently and didn’t
hear Freeman enter the home.
When the resident saw and questioned Freeman, he allegedly said
he was looking for someone else.
Not believing Freeman’s explanation, the man held Freeman at
bay with what police are describing only as a “prop” handgun until
officers arrived.
Officers say Freeman was carrying an empty backpack, and was
also charged with criminal trespass and possessing an instrument
of crime. Court records show he’s
got an extensive record of theft and
assault arrests.

Selective Service
misses mark by
102 years
KENNERdELL, Pa. (aP) — a Pennsylvania woman says her late father has
received notice to register for the nation’s
military draft — some 102 years too late.
Martha Weaver, now in her 80s, teold
The (Oil City) derrick that the selective
service system notice arrived recently in
Rockland Township, Venango County,
about 60 miles north of Pittsburgh.
Her father’s name was Fred Minnick,
though the notice misspelled the last
name “Minick” and warns that failure
to register is “punishable by a fine and
imprisonment.”
Her father was born on June 12, 1894,
which means he would have turned 18
in 1912.
Weaver suspects the confusion was
spawned by the incorrect birth date on
the form, which lists the birth year as
1994. Minnick had died by then, on april
20, 1992.
Alaskan baseball game
delayed by black bear
JUNEaU, alaska (aP) — Three
balls, two strikes, one bear.
a curious bear caused a momentarily delay in an american Legion
baseball game in alaska’s capital.
The black bear was captured by
still and video cameras walking
along the outfield fence during a
recent game between Juneau and
West anchorage.
Black bears are common in
Juneau. The Juneau Empire reported
officials stopped the game for a bit to
allow the anchorage players to take
in the experience.
Bears normally walk along a bear
trail that goes along the outfield
fence and then cuts into the woods
after right field.
This bear didn’t get a free lunch
like last year. during a soccer camp,
a bear walked down the middle of
the field and proceeded to the
stands, where it ate several sack
lunches intended for players.

Missing
ring eaten
by “food
burglar”
sTEVENs POINT, Wis. (aP)
— a Wisconsin woman who lost her
diamond wedding ring five years ago
had given up all hope of finding it after
searching high and low.
It turns out her mischievous dog may
have had it all along.
Lois Matykowski, of stevens Point,
was eating an ice pop two weeks ago
when she noticed her granddaughter’s
treat was gone. Her dog, Tucker, was
smacking his jaws.
The 10-year-old mutt the family calls
the “food burglar” had struck again,
swallowing it whole.
The snatched food soon came back
up. Two days later, Tucker threw up
again. Matykowski told WaOW-TV that
this time, when she went to clean up the
mess, she found her missing ring.
Her veterinarian says the Popsicle
stick may have dislodged the ring inside
his belly.
Quick thinking
from elderly
German woman

convicted fraud

being tipped off by the quick-witted retiree.
The woman had smelled a rat
when she received a call recently

Instead of hanging up, the centenarian accepted the offer, then
swiftly alerted the police.

You Must Have These
Why do you think, and worry, as
you do?
Can’t you believe that this is true?
W hy do you let yourself be so
afraid?
Can’t you feel that our plans can
be made?
Where is your courage, your faith,
and your love?
your patience in wa iting, the
things you’re in need of?
Why can’t you find them, and hold
them so tight?
Never let them out of your grasp,
or your sight
For, if you let the sea-scape from
your clutch
you’ll never be able to do very
much
you’ll never be able to do what you
should
For these things that are so pure,
and good
When you think of what you want,
and you need
Remember to take what I say as
a heed
That your faith, your courage, and
also your love
Only comes from the Lord way up
above
and when you’ve lost these, you’ve
lost yourself too
Letter from school
teacher to mother
received by niece
89 years later
sKOWHEGaN, Maine (aP) —
a letter written by a Maine school
teacher in 1931 to her mother 150
miles away has finally been delivered, 83 years later.
Miriam McMichael, 23, sent
the nine-page letter from Houlton
to dollena McMichael in Pittsfield.
Both women have died.
The letter was lost and only
recently found at the Pittsfield
post office. Postal worker Michelle
Rowell found it and told The Morning sentinel she knew it was old
because of the 2-cent stamp.
The postmaster and town officials tracked down the family, and
the letter is now in the hands of
ann MacMichael, 69, of Cornville,
Miriam’s niece and dollena’s granddaughter. The spelling of the family
name has changed.
MacMichael says the irony is
that the writer apologizes for not
writing sooner.
so remember my darling what I’ve
told you
Remember all the hardships others
have gone through
and did the things were thought
they couldn’t do
and how do you suppose these
were all brought about?
By always keeping patient without
any doubt
and having the faith and courage
to stick it out
Being unsure with doubts, worries,
and fears
These are the worst, the deadliest
of spears
To ruin all people, to bring on their
doom
For courage, faith, and patience is
left no room
Courage, faith, and patience is the
summary of love
and this is what I’ve always been
talking of
you must have these in order to
pull through
To do all the things you’ve been
wanting to
another piece especially for you
To help your love along so true
To save yourself while I’m away
Until we meet that future day
To aid you with, what you need
Until I come to take the lead
Then everything will be just grand
after we’re together on that land
Believe in me and you have nothing
to worry
Throw your doubts away hurry,
scurry

Bob Beatie,
Findlay
The summer is quickly passing us
by.
It was really nice, except for a few
cold days!
But, Mother Nature has her ways,
To make us sit and wonder why.
and just around the corner, it will
be fall!
One of my favorite seasons of all
To see the trees in beautiful array!
Though, sadly the leaves fall to the
Ground, the very next day.
Winter, I hear, is supposed to be
bad!
and that, my friends, makes me
very sad!
But we’ll survive, as we always do
Just grin and bear it, and we’ll get
through!
