A heartfelt tlThanks~ to those who "helJ)ed' to make this a most productive year for our Society. Many projects have been successfully completed and new ones started. Remember. helping with these projects can be a valuable learning experience and will help when researching your own fam1ly lines. The erosion of time causes a "wearing away" of records and family history will be lost to many future generations if we don't, compile information now.

MEDLICOTT was born about 1841 1n Ireland (or was of Irlsh descent)\ He was reared ln Marletta, Ohl0, served in the Army ln a W. Vlrglnla Reglment, wasdlsmlssed ln 1864,/-and studled Med1clne ln Clnnclnatl, Ohl0. In 1868, he marrled Mrs.- SarahE-. -DOYLE, a: wldow, "many years hls senlor" at Hagerstown, Maryland. They moved to Lawrence soon after and he opened a practlce at hls resldence. He was a member of the Eplscopal church. In 1871, hls parents were stll1 llvlng ln Mar1etta, Ohl0, he had one marrled slster ln Pennsylvanla. two ~rled slsters ln Kentucky (one brotherIn-law named WATSON, one named JONES) and one unmarrled slster ln Clnclnnatl, Ohl0. Hls In-laws, parents of Mrs. Sarah DOYLE MEDLICOTT had dle~ suddenly a few years before In.Maryland. Mr.s. Isaac M. RUTH (Ann Catherlne VOULLAIRE RUTH. also known as "Kate" or "Kltty") was sald to have been a French Creole. born ln the . South about 1836. Her malden name ls unknown, but her mother's name ln 1871 was "Mrs. MURRAY". ~j's-.-RUTH-was des·crlbed. as a- beautlful and well-educated woman who could speak several languages and had muslcal abillty. She went to St. Louls about 1853. where she marrled a young lawyer, Seymour VOULLAIRE, who afterwards became Dlstrlct Attorney of St. Louls. They ¢arrled, had s1x chlldren and remalned together at least ten years untll she became lnvolved with Mr. I~'M • .__IiUTH~ who was at that tl~e e1 ther a reporter for the Mlssouri fuu2(u~1i~:, '::_ ;,. 11can or a postal worker. Subsequently there was a shootlng lncla.ent �179 between Mr. RUTH ,and Mr. VOULLAIRE. both belng wounded. Soonafter. the VOULLAIRE's were dlvorced and on 29 Jan 1868 Mr. RUTH and MIS. VOULLAIRE were marrled ln St. Louls. It wasn't long before they ~, moved to Lawrence. where they 11ved wlth four of her chl1dren. (The VOULLAIRE chl1dren declded to adopt the name DeSPANGH. whlch was thelr maternal grandfather's surname. He was supposedly a French nobleman). It was ln Lawrence that Mrs. RUTH met Dr. MEDLICOTT. Isaac M. RUTH had llved ln Lawrence slnce the 1850's. He drove a mllk wagon for qulte a few years before he went to St. Louls. Hls father's name was also Isaac and he had at least one brother. named Davld. Hls flrst wlfe was a Mrs. BENNETT. a dl vorcee whom he probably marrled ln Kansas. She later dled suddenly. At the tlme of the Clvll War he went to St. Louls and became a clerk ln the Post Offlce (or a reporter for the Mlssourl Republlcan). After' hls death and autopsy. he was burled ln Westchester. Pennsylvanla. THE TRIALS_, E-~ Dr. MEDLICOTT had been ln the Lawrence jal1 fo~nearlyjhalf a year when hls trlal was moved to Garnett. Kansas (Aiiderson Co~J. Due to wldespread publlclty. lt was felt that he would not get a falr trlal ln Douglas County. ~WLRepy,bllcan Joy,[ni-l. a Lawrence newspape,r. gave detalled coverage of the trlal from Oct lO'to"'Dec 9 .~ :t$2f: Dozens of wltnesses from Lawrence and elsewhere"were'cal1ed. to' te-sti'fy,' Includlng such promlnent people as Gov. ROBINSON. John HUTCKINGS and Samuel WALKER. Doctors were called to testlfy about the morphlne found ln Mr. RUTH's body. (I t was reported that there was so much polson ln hls body that flles on the sheet thrown over hls body were polsoned and hundreds of them fell dead on the floor). Nelghbors suggested that Dr. MEDLICOTT may have polsoned a black woman and several cats as an experlment a few months before Mr. RUTH I S death.

This woman, with "eyes black as coal emitting sparks that 19n1 te the t1nder of a suscept1ble heart" went to New Orleans where she met (and married?) Mr. KELLEY, an agent of a steamship line, had a son, Paul and moved wlth them and her other children to New York City about 1882. Twelve years after the RUTH murder ln Lawrence, Kansas, a couple was found dead in a murder-sulcide ~t an apartment buildlng on 22nd St. ln New York C1 ty. At first the~bo~l:~!!rwere ldentified as those of Horace B. SHEPARD and h1s w1fe •. But ln a few days the truth became known. The woman was none other than Ann Cather1ne VOULLAIRE RUTH. identified by her son, Belmont DeSPANGH. Unknown to her children and present husband(?), she had been living a double life as Mrs. KELLEY and Mrs. SHEPARD. It was believed that Mr. SHEPARD. a yound man in his 20's wlth a gentle manner and from a very flne family of Saybrook. Conn •• had recently learned of her past and that he had kllled her and himself out of shame or fear. Hls fam1ly. when informed of the tragedy, was devastated with grief. The former Mrs. RUTH was to be buried in Greenwood" cemetery. New Yorko:C~ty,. It was said that ::Ohis woman with the coal-blaCk eyes and vivacious temperament had "ruined four men".

Second. I lost near the same tlme. but a few days later. a valuable mare rode by a young man. the particulars of whlch I know.,nothlng further than his report. He sald she fell and killed herself. I have not seen or heard of the man for three years past. These two horses I drove from Indlana. and they were worth there $150 each. and more here. Thlrd, I loaned to Mr. LOWRY a mule to rlde durlng the winter of 1856. I went to Lawrence for her once and she was gone to Leavenworth. he did not know who had her. She was taken from him again and rode to Fort Scott. to organize the people for detence, & etc. Durlng this trip she was tied out to a tree over night 1n the snow several times with nothing to eat. and somt1mes travelled all da~without food. so I was told. When she returned to Lawrence. she was sick and never recovered. she lived a few months and died. She was a large mule. 16 hands hlgh. three'''years- old. coming four: I paid $175 for her in Missouri. Fourth. I lost a large red ox. which I believe was killed and eaten by the free-State army in Lawrence. in August. 1856. One of my neighbors. Ell HUDDLESTON. told me he thought he helped to dress him. It was common then to drive in cattle and kill them. Thlsc'ox was worth i50. ) Fifth. I lost a heifer which was kllled and eaten. A young man who has slnce worked for me helped to do 1 t: His name is Henry C. CARPENTEB. He 1s not in the Territory now. and I do not know where he ls. ,She was worth $25. The evidence substantiat1ng these claims is on file with General STRICKLER During the sUlDlller of 1856. while the free-State army was encamped near my house. a few days previous to the at~acks on Franklin. Fort Saunders. and Titus's fort. and for several days after. I was forced by circumstances and by my sense of duty to feed many men. My provision and grocery bill was three hundred dollars for these expenses. I was forced into the position of defending the country. and I was obliged to do it or run. G.W. HUTCHINSON is my witness'~ere also Captain BELL. and Dr. ROOT, and many others. There was no time from May tll1 September, 1856. that I d1d not have from two to three sick persons to take care ot, made sick. I believe, by exposure and hardship in defence of the Territory. I cla1m $)00 for money expended. but nothing for serv1ces. Augustus WATTLES Subscribed and sworn to betore me, Willlam B. EMERSON. J.P. Co. of Llnn.

The HASKIN family who left two'months ago for Oklahoma is back again and has taken 'possession of the HARBAUGH farm near the river. They started from here. with two light teams and went allover the territory and when they could find no place like BISMARCK, they all gottogether one night at dark and said. "See here suppose we all journey northward to a colder climate." No sooner were these words spoken then all the family together arose and agreed to start at the dawn of day for a land that is fairer than Oklahoma. , An upper boy, a son of the late Dan BANKER, aged about 9 years turned in one day last week to Aunt Sibley WALKER for a home where he now'is unt1;.l a home is found for him. The boy has been turned loose with no',~,one to care for .him. There were two boys of them not related, that for months past have been running on the commons awaitlng some chance' to get to the reform school. Not long since' one of-:-, ' , them stole a dollar and by thls generosity on his part got two weeks in the calaboose where he enjoys life to lts fullest e~tent. E.W.

He planted these acres w1th the h1gh hope of making a raise, and seeing noth1ng prospect1ve before h1m, his discouragement has led hlm either to sulc1de or derangement. Somethlng of a search has been lnstltuted several times, only to find no trace of the unfortunate man. His we1ght will reach near 200 pounds, and he is quite an iritellig~nt man 1n conversat10n, be1ng always a hard work1ng farmer. E.W.
