street. She seemed to be in the best of health and spirits when she left her
home. She was a woman who was held in high esteem by all who knew her, and had
never been seriously ill. It was shortly after the dance had started that Mrs.
HAWKINS joined in the Crooked S, an old time square dance. She had danced only a

Fractured Skull; Not Intoxicated
Thomas O’MARA, of Holley, Probably Murdered
Found In A Stairway
Patrolman Thinks Him Intoxicated and Takes Him to Lockup —
When Still Unconscious at Noon. Calls Physician But Death Soon Follows
Holley, March 8 - Thomas O’MARA, the 25-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John O’MARA
who reside about two (2 lines unreadable) afternoon at the home of his brother,
William O’MARA, who resides in Thomas street in this village, of injuries
sustained when he was struck by some small blunt instrument and his skull
fractured. His assailant is unknown.
When Constable William WEBSTER went into the Village building shortly (line
unreadable) the bottom of the stairs he found young O’MARA lying on his back
with his hands upon his breast, and breathing loudly. His face was smeared with
blood. As WEBSTER had found him in an intoxicated condition on previous
occasions, he thought that it was the same old story and took him into the
lockup, covered him with blankets and started a fire. He paid no more heed to
him thinking that he would soon wake up. About noon when WEBSTER found the young
man unconscious, he summoned a doctor, who also thought that he was under the
influence of liquor, but gave directions that he should be given attention.
Early in the afternoon his brothers were notified and about 3 o’clock he was
taken to his brother’s home where, shortly after the doctor arrived, he died
without regaining consciousness.
There are a number of conflicting stories concerning the affair and it is
said that early Friday evening, accompanied by a chum, O’MARA went to
Clarendon to attend a dance, but as no dance was held that evening, he returned
to this village and went to his brother’s house. A number of nearby residents
claim that about 12 o’clock they heard loud talking and scuffling and soon
after saw O’MARA come out of the house and start toward the Public Square, but
no one has yet been found who saw him after he left the house.
His chum with whom he had been around that evening was found in an
intoxicated condition near Murphy’s coal office on Midway and was taken into
Ludington’s restaurant. The horse which the young men drove was found about 3
o’clock in the morning by Nightwatch SHEPHERD, who could find no clue to the
owner.
Last night the body was taken to the undertaking rooms of H. E. TURNER &
Co., of this village, and this afternoon an autopsy was held by Coroner Clarence
C. NESBITT. He issued a certificate of death due to a fracture caused by some
small blunt instrument striking the head over the temple region. There was also
a bruise on his jaw and his lip was badly cut. An inquest will be held.
Considerable mystery shrouds the whole affair as no clue yet has been found
as to the whereabouts of O’HARA after he left his brother’s home.
He was 25 years old and was born in the town of Clarendon, November 26, 1889.
He always resided there and was known as a quiet, hard working fellow. He leaves
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John O’MARA, of Clarendon; five brothers, John, of
Clarendon; William, of this village; James, of Niagara Falls; George and
Nicholas, of Clarendon; one sister, Mary, of Rochester. The funeral will
probably be held Monday.

SECOND TRIAL OF SCHWAB
Case of Chauffeur Charged With Manslaughter Opens To-day
Lester SCHWAB, a chauffeur, charged with manslaughter, the killing of William
VAN VORST in Monroe avenue the night of October 25th, will have his
second trial before County Judge STEPHENS and a jury commencing to-day. At the
former trial Berton CORBY, one of the jurors, was taken ill.
As Sheriff Harley E. HAMIL, who was one of the important witnesses at the
first trial, is now in a hospital, it was thought at first that another
postponement would have to be taken. Assistant District Attorney William F. LOVE
said that he would not move the case unless he was permitted to produce
confessions obtained by the sheriff. Willis R. VAN de MARK, SCHWAB’S attorney,
has agreed to permit the sheriff’s testimony at the first trial to be read in
full to the jury.
SCHWAB, who worked for a department store as driver, took an automobile
delivery for a joy ride on the day of the fatality, with several companions.
Returning from Pittsford about 10:30 o’clock at night the automobile struck
VAN VORST.

and his death followed an operation for mastoiditis performed to-day. Two weeks

connected with the Times and the Press.
In 1873 Mr. BUTLER came to Buffalo and established the Sunday News and seven
years later issued the first edition of the Evening News.
In 1896 Mr. BUTLER was Republican presidential elector
at large from New York. In 1900 he was an elector and served as chairman of
the board of the Board of Electors. He was an active member of the grade crossings
commission of Buffalo to his death, the only survivor of the original commission.

Storekeeper Protects Woman and Is Beaten for His Trouble
"Save me," cried a well-dressed young woman, as she ran into the
store of Robert OLSAN at No. 337 Hudson avenue yesterday afternoon. "There's
a man following me."
OLSAN showed her to the rear part of the store and scarcely
had resumed his seat near the center of the room when a man in a street railway
uniform entered the place and demanded whether a woman had just come in. When
told that no one had entered he declared OLSAN was a liar and struck him twice
in the face. OLSAN was knocked down and two teeth were knocked or kicked out.
In the confusion the woman left by the back door.
The police of the Joseph avenue station were notified.
OLSAN had a piece of the motorman's coat, which bore a union button. The police
say they expect to find the motorman or conductor who assaulted OLSAN.

Said That Sensational Developments Are Expected
In Surrogate's Court at 10:30 o'clock this morning, the first hearing will
be held in the contest over the will of the late Melville A. YAUCK, millionaire
inventor, who died February 17th. Rumors that the trouble would be settled out
of court were unfounded, the attorneys declare.
One of the lawyers said last night that there would be
sensations. It is claimed that there are three wills, the first having been
drawn two years ago, the second, in January, and the last the day Mr. YAUCK
died. In the first two wills the mother, Mrs. Melvina YAUCK, and two brothers,
Percy and Edwin YAUCK, received large bequests, it is said, while in the deathbed
testament they were not mentioned, the widow and son getting the estate.
Judge John A. BARHITE and George FLECKENSTEIN represent
the contestants, and claim that Mr. YAUCK was of unsound mind and was unduly
influenced at the time that he made his last will, McInerney & Becktold
deny these charges.

CARBOLIC ACID EXPLODES
And Bath Druggist Is Painfully Burned - His Eyes Escaped
Bath, March 9 - Charles A. SHULTS, a Bath druggist was painfully burned this
morning when a retort of carbolic acid which he was heating over an alcohol
flame, exploded. The explosion scattered the fiery acid and it hit Mr. SCHULTS
in the face, hands and arms. His eyes, however, escaped, probably because he
unconsciously closed his eyes when the explosion resulted.
The alcohol caught fire and communicated to nearby merchandise

SHERIFF HARLEY HAMIL IS DEAD
Ruptured Appendix Responsible for Illness That Costs Life ...45 Years Old
(Photo of Harley E. HAMIL)
Harley E. HAMIL, sheriff of Monroe county, died at 9 o'clock last night in
the Homeopathic Hospital, aged 45 years. Last Saturday afternoon his physicians
operated for appendicitis, and the appendix was discovered to have been ruptured.
General peritonitis had set in. Tuesday it was necessary to perform a second
operation for the removal of matter that had collected. His condition gradually
grew worse, and shortly after midnight yesterday morning his children were summoned
to his bedside. As long as he was conscious he (unreadable)
Mr. HAMIL had not been wed for several days, but had attended
to his duties at both the Court House and jail. Dr. Thomas T. MOONEY was called
to attend the Sheriff late Friday night, and advised an immediate operation.
Dr. H. T. WILLIAMS, of Alexander street, and Dr. MOONEY performed the operation
Saturday afternoon, and it was thought that the patient was strong enough to
pull through. The optimism of his physician, one of whom was Dr. Harry J. MANN,
of Brockport, and of his friends was heightened Monday afternoon, when the sheriff
was without fever, in less pain and took some nourishment. Late in the day'
a change for the worse was evident.
Mr. HAMIL was born in Clarkson, Monroe county, January
4, 1869. He was educated in the public schools and in early manhood learned
the hardware trade. He branched into a general carriage and agricultural implement
business in the late 90's and later served the town of Clarkson as clerk, having
the indorsement of both his parties in 1901. He was chairman of the Republican
Committee of his town for several years and for many years was Republican general
committeeman from Clarkson. He was elected to the Board of Supervisors and for
several years was its chairman. As presiding officer he exhibited knowledge
of parliamentary law that proved the wisdom of his selection. Three years ago
he was elected sheriff. His term would have expired December 31st, this year.
Sheriff HAMIL was a past master of Monroe Lodge, F. and
A. M., of Brockport; a member of Daniel J. Holmes Chapter, R. A. m., of Brockport;
of Monroe Commandery, K. T., this city; Damascus Temple, Mystic Shrine; Rochester
Consistory, Scottish Rite; Lalls Rookh Grotto, Veiled Prophets; the Masonic
Club, the Whist Club and the Rochester Club. He once held an appointive office
in the Grand Lodge of Kree and Accepted Masons of New York state. He was a member
of the Silshy Hose Company, of Brockport.
Mr. HAMIL married Miss Jessie HIXSON, of Clarkson, who
died about a year ago. He leaves five children, Isabel, Doris, Louise, Frances
and Richard HAMIL, five brothers, J. C. and B. P. HAMIL, of Chicago; E. E. and
W. H. HAMIL, of Deer Park, Ala., and W. W. HAMIL, of Clarkson, and an uncle,
Jacob HAMIL, of Clarkson.
