Arrested for Gaddis’s Murder
Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells Brought Here from Boone County.
Deputy Sheriff Nieland yesterday afternoon arrested Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells, at Whitestown, Boone county, and brought them to this city, where they were lodged in jail. The couple were arrested on a grand jury warrant charged them with assault with attempt to kill Ambrose Hedges. The latter is at present in the Boone county jail awaiting trial for manslaughter, his victim having been Dan Gaddis, the husband of the woman arrested yesterday. The affray which resulted in the death of Gaddis and fearful knife wounds to the person of Hedges occurred on the evening of Sept. 7 on the bank of Fall creek at the end of Indiana avenue. Dan and Mary Gaddis and Cecil Bunnells, all of Whitestown, were strolling around the State engaged in trading horses. Here they met Hedges, who lived with his mother near the City Hospital, and quarreled with him over a trade. In the trouble Hedges secured a neckyoke and struck Gaddis a blow over the head form which he died within a week. His wife got hold of a knife and severely stabbed Hedges, while Bunnell fired a shot at him. Two weeks ago Hedges was arrested on the charge of murder, and was taken to Boone county, but before leaving filed information before the grand jury which resulted in the arrest of the wife of his victim.

They Are Still Missing
Many Sudden Disappearances Are Yet Unexplained
[long article about several area disappearances, including Charles]
One of the mysterious disappearances the police of Kansas city have been called upon to unravel is that of Charles M. Hedges, manager of the American Law association. Hedges dropped out of sight on November 27, at Liberty, Mo., while there on a day’s visit to his uncle, an elder of the Christian church. Not even a suspicion of a trace of him has ever been found, although the police, the missing man’s lodge of the Odd Fellows and numerous friends have all joined in the search for him. Hedges is said to have loved dearly his young wife and infant child, who were left alone in the world. He kissed them goodby on the morning of Sunday, November 27, and said he would be back again at night. That was the last either of them ever has seen of him.

Ambrose D. Hedges Not Guilty of Murder
(Special to the Indianapolis New)
Lebanon, November 16 – The case of the State vs. Ambrose D. Hedges for the murder of Daniel Gaddis in September last, which was begun on Monday in the Circuit Court, terminated this morning by a verdict of not guilty. The evidence showed that Gaddis and his family and Cecil Burk approached Hedges, while the latter was encamped near Fall creek, close to Indianapolis, and proposed trading horses. A quarrel arose, but the Gaddis family left at the time, going to Indianapolis. While there they became intoxicated, and Burk purchased a pistol, with which they returned and renewed the quarrel with Hedges. A fight ensued in which Hedges struck Gaddis on the head with a neck yoke, from the effect of which the latter died two weeks later. Burk shot at Hedges, and Mrs. Gaddis inflicted eight ugly knife wounds upon Hedges’s body. The verdict could have been nothing else under the evidence. Burk has been sentenced to two years imprisonment from Marion county for attempting to murder Hedges, and Mrs. Gaddis is indicted under the same charge.

Huybert Hendricksen

NOTES on Pieter Wolferts Couwenhoven, relating to Huybert Hendricks:

In 1659 in New Amsterdam, Pieter van Couwenhoven had been a baptismal witness for one of the children of Huybert Hendrickzen "van Rodenkerchen." Pieter van Couwenhoven's wife Hester Simons (recorded as "Hester Couwenhoven") had been a baptismal witness for the second child of Huybert Hendrickzen "van Rodenkerchen" in 1657.

Pieter van Couwenhoven also had property in New Castle, obtained before 1669. In 1669, Pieter van Couwenhoven was granted a New Castle lot in 1669, adjacent to one he already owned:

(195) A Confirmation graunted to Pieter Cowenhoven for a small hooke or corner of land at New Castle in Delaware Ryver.

Francis Lovelace, Esqr. &c. Whereas there is a certaine hooke or small corner of land at New Castle in Delaware Ryver lyeing behinde Pieter Cowenhovens lott by which it is bounded on ye one syde and is on all ye other surrounded with ye meadow ground or valley, and swamp or creupell, conteyning between two or three Morgen or five or six acres at most ye which ye officers at Delaware who have had comision to dispose of land there not improved or belonging to no perticular properietor have graunted to Pieter Cowenhoven; for a confirmation to ye sd Pieter Cowenhoven &c. The Quitt rent one bushell, the patent is dated ye first of October 1669. Fo 36. [Original land titles in Delaware Commonly Known as the Duke of York Record , pp. 142-143]

By 1671, Pieter van Couwenhoven, then of Elizabethtown, NJ was in jail at Manhattan after defaulting on a large mortgage of his NJ properties, made in 1667 to Governor Philip Carteret of New Jersey. At the time of the 1671 census of the Delaware, Pieter Couwenhoven's daughter Antje Pieters, the child he fathered out of wedlock with Maria Truax, was living on his New Castle property with her husband, Anders Stille. After the sale of this property, Anders Stille and Antje Pieters Couwenhoven removed to Christiana Bridge, a settlement at the head of navigation several miles west of New Castle.

Hedges Case Baffles Them
Police Can Not Penetrate The Mystery Surrounding It.
For More Than a Month Charles M. Hedges Has Been Missing, and Not the Slightest Trace of His Whereabouts Has Been Found – His Wife Still Has Hopes of His Return, and Continues His Business.
In an office on the sixth floor of the Nelson building a woman with traces of suffering in her finely-chiseled face, sits all day at a desk and carries on the business which her husband built up during five years of constant toil in the face of many difficulties. She is the wife of Charles M. Hedges, the manager, of the American Law association, who disappeared as mysteriously on November 27 last as if the earth had opened and swallowed him from sight.
This woman is carrying on the business of the association as if nothing the world had happened and as if she had been doing it for years. The desk where her husband sat is loaded down with just as many papers as when he was there. Business men of the city who have had occasion to place any of their affairs in the hands of this woman say that she is as much a manager of affairs as was ever her husband.
Before her husband disappeared he was a collector of other men’s bills. As manager of the American Law association he solicited unpaid bills from business men and by letters to the delinquent ones tried to get them to settle the bills. Those who knew him best say that he kept a record of every man who paid a bill which had been entrusted to him for collection and that this list was sent monthly to the business firms of the city so that these firms might know who the men were who could pay the bills they had contracted. In writing these letters to the men who owed money to business firms, Hedges would state that if the bills were paid the man’s name would be place on this list and the firms of the city would thereby know whom to trust in selling goods on time. Friends of the missing man say that Hedges never had the bills in his possession, but would simply write the letters to the debtors and collect his commission from the creditors in the event of the bill being paid as a result of his efforts.
Mrs. Hedges Still Has Hope.
Writing letters is the task which Mrs. Hedges has during all of each day. Every morning when the mail is delivered to the office she tears open each letter with a look of hope in her face. “There may be a letter from Charlie, and he may be sick some out-of-the-way place and can’t come home,” she says. Although disappointed at every mail, she has not give up all hope. “He will come back sometime.” That is what she lives for.
While this woman thumps diligently away at a typewriter, a little baby boy plays around on the floor of the office. This child was the delight of Hedges, and when he left his home for a day’s visit at Liberty, he kissed the child good-by. All remembrance of its father leaves the child for days at a time. Sometimes this little boy asks for him, but these requests are becoming fewer and farther apart as the days go by.
“The boy has almost forgotten that he ever had a father,” the mother says. “I suppose the child would recognize him if he would come back, but I am not so sure of it.
The search for Hedges is still on, but not even the shadow of a suspicion of his whereabouts has been learned of by the police or the missing man’s friends since he dropped out of sight. Hedges’ disappearance is the strangest case the local police have ever been called upon to unravel. To drop out of sight as completely as if a fire had consumed every atom of one’s body is a thing seldom heard of hearabouts. Although nearly a month has passed since Hedges disappeared, not one man has been found who remembers seeing him or anyone who looked like him since he left the Leland hotel at Liberty to catch the 7:45 o’clock train to this city on the night of November 27.
The police, the missing man’s lodge of the Odd Fellows and a dozen close friends have done everything possible in the search for him, and none has found the slightest trace. Hedges’ accounts were as straight as a string, and he owed no man, as far as his friends here know. He left a wife and a child, both of whom he is said to have loved dearly. His wife says that there was never anything but the happiest of relations in the family home, and that her husband was a sober, studious man.

Brutal Outrage. - On the night of Thursday, 19th inst., between 12 and 1 o'clock, Wm. Beckley, John Maloney and Ed. and John Larkin went to the premises of an old man named Monroe Hedges in the neighboring town of Washington, and took form the adjoining lot two horse and a spring wagon, with which they departed in the direction of Maysville, but stopped to drink at a groggery kept by McCarty in the outskirts of the place. Hedges and his son followed the men, and just as the pursuers reached the groggery, John Larkin called out to his companions to shoot and kill them. All four of the ruffians then rushed out and assailed Hedges and his son with rocks, knocking down the old man, breaking his arm and otherwise brutally injuring him. Young Hedges was also badly beaten with rocks. Mr. Hedges and his son managed to escape from their assailants by taking refuge in the house of Mr. Blackett. In the meantime the four ruffians returned to the house of Hedges and made most outrageous and indecent assaults upon his wife, daughter-in-law and daughter, the last a little girl not more than ten years of age. The women were shamefully abused by language and act, John Larkin swearing that he would take the life of Mrs. Hedges unless she submitted to his licentious embraces. The women resisted and finally escaped to the second floor of the building and locked themselves in. Just at this time Hedges and his son returned home, and one of the brutes asked the old man what was the matter with him. He replied that he was badly hurt. They asked him if he knew who had hurt him. Fearing that if he betrayed his knowledge that they were the assailants they would murder him, he answered that he could not them certainly tell who had done it. John Larkin than said that the negroes had done it, and to tell him whom they were and he would fix them. They then left the house. The next day the men were arrested and tried before Esquire Steele. The above facts were fully proven in the trial. Wm. Beckley, John Maloney, and Ed. Larkin were fined each $20 and sentenced to fifteen days imprisonment. They are all now in the Maysville Jail, where they will be kept until their fines are paid or work them out by breaking rock.

Mr. Hedges will sue the parties for breaking his arm, and the trail will be had at the Maysville Court House before Judge Sumrall on next Tuesday. The women have made affidavits that the men attempted to ravish them, and they will also be tried on this charge. they will also be prosecuted for stealing the horses and wagon. If they escape the penitentiary, it will be because Mason county has queer men on juries sometimes. George R. Gill prosecuted there men before the examining magistrate, and we learn made a very able speech.

LKH note:
Right name, time and location to be Monroe Hedges.

Belligerent People - Between the hours of nine and ten o'clock, last Saturday night, a number of warlike men engaged in their usual pastime of fighting and shooting. The "little unpleasantness" occurred at the house of Monroe Hedges on the suburbs of the city. Several parties, Lewis, Cook and Ramsey, by name, having made an assault upon his house were resisted and at first repulsed by Hedges. The desperate trio determined to renew the battle, however, and immediately made an impetuous charge, breaking a door, and meeting their enemy in a hand-to-hand combat. Several pistols were fired at this time, but nobody hurt by them. Fists and clubs, however, did bloody work, and when the combat ended, by the subjugation of Hedges, it was discovered that he and one of his opponents were painfully though not mortally wounded.
The guilty parties were afterwards arrested by the city authorities, and confined in the Court House cate.
On Sunday night they attempted to make their escape, and nearly succeeded. They managed to cut a hole nearly through the thick wall of their cell before they were discovered.

Riot. - Logan Cook, Jesse Ramsey, and Wm. Lewis went to the house of Monroe Hedges who lives on the Lexington pike, on Saturday night, and conducted themselves in so rude a manner that Hedges ejected them from the premises. They then broke down the door and made a forcible entrance. Several shots were fired at Hedges, none of which struck him, and he was knocked down and badly beaten. He managed to deal Mm. Lewis a sever blow over the head with a club, but the other ruffians were unharmed. Cook and Ramsey were arrested on Sunday and confined in the vault under the Court House steps. The iron door of one of the windows had not been locked, and at night they wrenched it from its hinges, and used it as a pick against the wall. They succeeded in cutting a large hole nearly through the wall, but the guard came in a little too soon in the morning for their escape. Twenty minutes later and it would have been effected. Cook and Ramsey, both of whom are old offenders, were fined $50 each for riotous conduct and $25 each for defacing the public buildings. Not having greenbacks to that amount about their persons they were placed in the vault to board it out. Lewis was fined $50 for riotous conduct, and he also is in the vault. Monroe Hedges is the man who was driven away from Washington some months ago by a band of rowdies. He certainly has had a bad streak of luck.
