HASKINS, Miss Mary Margaret

At an early hour Tuesday morning, Mary Margaret Haskins, aged 11 years, died at the home of Mr. and Mrs. I. D. Taylor, of Reese's Mill. She had been a great sufferer for several weeks of tuberculosis but was conscious to the last, talking to those around her bedside, telling them that "It is growing dark outside and I am nearly gone."  During her illness she was baptized in the Methodist faith and requested that they bury her at Centenary Church, where she had been a diligent scholar in the Sunday School and was much devoted to her class.  Mary was taken from the Fairmont home by Mr. and Mrs. Taylor about three years ago. She was a child of a kind and loving disposition and in this short time has made many warm friends in the community where she will be greatly missed, as well as the home.  It was known for some time that recovery was impossible, but all that medical skill and loving hands could do was done to relieve her suffering. The funeral service was conducted Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock by Rev. G. W. Yost, of New Creek, assisted by Rev. Wilson of Springfield. The choir who sang was composed of Misses Lillian and Harriet Rogers, Lena Dawson, Bessie Warnick, and Isaac Umstot and Earl Rogers, with Miss Mabelle Armstrong as organist. A large concourse of friends were in attendance and the floral offerings were many and beautiful. Interment was made in the Centenary Cemetery.

The two Hatfields owned a saloon at Boomer, and in issuing saloon licenses in Fayette county it is understood that saloonists shall not live outside a restricted territory. Gerone was employed by Carl Hansau, who owned a saloon at Dannelton, two miles from Boomer, and Gerone was said to have been infringing on the Hatfield territory.

Two Drowned In Potomac ~ Boys Meet Their Death While Bathing Near Cumberland
Special to the Washington Post ~ Cumberland, Md., June 30 - Joseph Hausman, aged fourteen years, son of William Hausman, a West Virginia Central car inspector, and Herbert Hausman, aged eleven, son of Jacob Hausman, of this city, were drowned this afternoon in the Potomac River while bathing.  It is supposed that Joseph Hausman was seized with cramps and his younger cousin went to his rescue and the struggles of the drowning lad carried both of them down. The clothes of the two boys were seen on the bank of the river about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and the lads were not in sight.  This led to an investigation, and Edward Borehead and John Libel dived and brought the bodies to the surface.

HAWKER, Leslie

SHINNSTON WV - Leslie Hawker, a hardware merchant of this city, was instantly killed late this afternoon, when his touring car skidded on a slippery road a mile south of town and went over an embankment. The machine overturned and Hawker was caught under it and crushed to death. With him were two young men Paul and Thomas Harmer, and the former suffered slight injuries, while Thomas escaped without a scratch. Mr. Hawker, together with his wife and three children and the two Harmers, had been in Buckhannon Saturday and Sunday. Owing to the rain and muddy roads Hawker induced his wife and children to return to Shinnston by rail, and thus they escaped the tragedy that befell husband and father.

HAWKINS, Dr. Arthur Hanson

Dr. Arthur Hanson Hawkins, 83, dean of Western Maryland surgeons, died today at 4:30 a. m. in Memorial Hospital where he had remained in critical condition since being admitted last Thursday. Dr. Hawkins, who resided on Hill Crest Drive, Baltimore Pike, continued to maintain an office at the hospital the past two years despite failing health. He survived a number of operations and remained fairly active after recovering from a serious illness several years ago. Considered outstanding in his field, Dr. Hawkins held an unrivaled, position in the area. About 1908, he started to specialize in surgery and continued in that field until failing health forced him to curb his activities and become a consultant at operations. Dr. Hawkins was born December 27, 1868, in LaPlata, Charles county, a son of the late Samuel and Jane (Robertson) Hawkins, both of old Maryland families. He attended public schools and later received private instruction.

Came Here In 1901

Subsequently, he went to the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Baltimore, where he was graduated in 1898. Dr. Hawkins was resident student at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore from 1894 to 1895, and graduate resident at Bayview Hospital from 1895 to 1896. He served at Spring Grove Hospital, Catonsvllle, in 1897 and 1898. Preparatory to a change in location, Dr. Hawkins spent several months in hospital post-graduate study, pursuing special courses at Johns Hopkins, the University of Maryland and the Physicians and Surgeons Hospitals, Baltimore. His interests were surgery and pathology. Dr. Hawkins began his general practice at Mount Savage in 1899. He moved to Cumberland in 1901 and later became chief surgeon of the old Western Maryland Hospital, chief of staff at Memorial Hospital, consultant surgeon at Allegany Hospital here, Miners Hospital at Frostburg, Hazel McGilvey Hospital in Meyersdale and Bedford County Hospital. He also was chief of the tumor clinic at Memorial.

Studied In Europe

Seeking additional education, Dr. Hawkins studied in Chicago under Dr. John B. Murphy from 1907 to 1908, at Mayo Clinic in 1909, at Orlle Clinic from 1911 to 1912, and in Berlin, Germany, under Professor Pick, surgical pathologist, in 1913. Dr. Hawkins performed special work in surgery in Berlin, London and Edinburgh in Europe, and in many of the leading hospitals throughout the United States. He was Fellow of the American College of Surgeons since 1914 and Fellow of the Academy-International of Medicine and Surgery. During World Wars I and II, he served as chairman and surgeon of the Selective Service Medical Advisory Board. He also was chairman of the Army Examining Board at Memorial Hospital. One of the founders of the Dime Savings Bank which merged with the Liberty Trust Company, Dr. Hawkins was a past president of the Allegany-Garrett County Medical Society, the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland and the Cumberland Rotary Club. He held membership in the American Medical Association, Southern Medical Association, Sigma Alpha Episolon and the famous University Club of Baltimore. For many years he served on the board of directors of the Cumberland Country Club, Salvation Army, Central YMCA and Rotary Club and was a member of the Credentials Committee of the American College of Surgeons.

Ardent Hunter

Dr. Hawkins was an ardent sportsman in the field of hunting and the organizer of "The Duck Busters," which holds annual dinners here. He continued to make annual duck hunting trips to Arkansas in recent years despite his poor health. Dr. Hawkins, a Democrat of the old Jefferson school, also was a member of Salem Chapter 18, Royal Arch Masons; Potomac Lodge 100, AF and AM; Antioch Commandery 6, Knights Templar; Cumberland Consistory 32; Ali Ghan Temple, AAONMS; McKinley Chapter 12, Order of Eastern Star; Ali Ghan Shrine Country Club, Diesel Club, Cumberland Lodge 63, BPO Elks, and Emmanuel Episcopal Church. He was a 32nd degree Mason. In 1903 he married the former Louise Brokenborough Price, of Virginia, who resides in Baltimore. Surviving children are Mrs. Gervas McElderry Storrs, Baltimore, and Arthur Hanson Hawkins, Jr., New York. He is also survived by his second wife Mrs. Lou Finzel Hawkins. Services will be conducted Wednesday at 2 p. m. at Emmanuel Episcopal Church with Rev. H. M. Richardson, rector, officiating. Burial will be in Hillcrest Cemetery.

HAWKINS, Herbert (see also GROVER & SHAFFERMAN)

Two, one of Cumberland, were killed and a third so badly scalded that he died before he could be removed from the scene, in a collision between a light engine and a runaway string of freight cars on the B&O railroad at Rowlesburg, W. Va., seven miles east of Grafton, early this morning. Engineer Shafferman, of Newburg, instantly killed. Flagman Herbert Hawkins, of Springdale street, Cumberland, taken dead from the wreckage. W. A. Grover, of Newburg, fireman on Shafferman's engine, so badly scalded that he died at 12:40 o'clock, this afternoon. The flesh was literally cooked on Grover's body. The physicians feared to attempt his removal to the Grafton hospital, so he lay near the scene of the wreck until his death. When taken from the wreckage early this morning, physicians said Glover could live but a few minutes, but his wonderful stamina and nerve kept his alive for hours, though he suffered the most intense torments of pain. The three men constitute the crew of engine No. 1838, which was running light, carrying only a caboose. The engine was following a train up the grade, drawn by engines Nos. 1824 and 1844. It is thought that a coupling of the freight broke about 30 cars from the rear. The broken portion of the train did not hold its automatic brake pressure but started backward down the hill. The crew of the broken freight got to safety, but the men on the following engine had no warning until the runaway cars hurried into them, going at terrific speed. The 30 cars were badly wrecked, the locomotive reduced almost to junk and the tracks seriously damaged. The westbound track was opened at 11:30 o'clock this morning and the eastbound track was cleared at 1:20 this afternoon. A rigid investigation is already being pushed by the railroad. It is the worst wreck the B&O has had on the west end in years. No official report has been filed.

HAWKINS, Morris H.

Morris H. Hawkins the subject of this sketch, was born June 2, 1849, near Mt. Jackson, Va., and died August 24, 1913, at 5 p.m. at his home in Frankfort, W. Va. He became a member of the U. B. church at the age of 19 and later joined the M. E. Church, South, of which he has always been a consistent member. He had kept the faith and fought the fight and was prepared to go, only waiting the master's call to summon him home. His prayers had always been that he might live to see his children all able to take care of themselves. This prayer has been answered, and he had always prayed that they all might live faithful Christian lives and meet him at last over on the shore where there shall be no more weeping or sorrow. Mr. Hawkins had been ill for some time with consumption, but he bore his suffering patiently and often said, "I am ready to go. I wish I could go tonight." He was a devoted husband, an affectionate father and a loyal friend. He always took an active interest in church work, and for many years was Supt. of the Sunday School of the M. E. church, south. He was also president of the Epworth League. Mr. Hawkins is survived by his wife and the following children: Mrs. C. K. Welch, McMechen, W. Va.; Henry H., Red Bank, Pa.; Mrs. Thomas Keyser, Cumberland, Md.; Mrs. Cleveland Pyles, Patterson Depot, W. Va.; and Percy, at home; also by several grandchildren. The following brothers survive: George W. Hawkins, Baltimore, Md.; John H. Hawkins, Cedarville, Ca.; and Rhesa Hawkins, Lake View, Ore. The funeral took place Wednesday morning at ten o'clock from the M. E. church, South, Rev. Wilson, the pastor, officiated, assisted by Rev. Yost, a former pastor, and Rev. Earle, pastor of the Presbyterian church. Interment was in the Frankfort Cemetery.
