ARNOLD, Jacob

BEAVER RUN - Many of your readers will be shocked by the following news items on account of the tragic death of Jacob Arnold in Colorado. This item is taken from a letter from Eld. Jno Arnold, Linter, Ill.  Many of us will remember that Daniel T. Arnold, of Mo, made an extended visit here several years ago among friends and the old land marks. His son Jacob married near McPherson, Kan. and he and his wife settled in Col. The man, a near neighbor, who is unsuspected[sic] guilty of this awful crime, seemed always to be on good terms with Mr. Arnold till last fall when the neighbor wanted Mr. Arnold to help him thresh on Sunday. This, of course, was refused, and he became angry at Mr. Arnold and declared he would get even for this.  Since then several attempts had been made to burn out Mr. Arnold, going so far one time as to burn a hay stack and to leave other marks. So Mr. Arnold and his hired hand decided to watch and try to ascertain who was doing the mischief. On the morning of the fifteenth of January, a noise was heard outside the house at 2:30 and Mr. Arnold went out to see what it was and saw a man running from the house. He gave chase and caught the villain just as he was crossing the yard fence, where upon the man shot and Mr. Arnold returned to the house and said he was shot. His conditions was such that the physician had him sent to the hospital at Denver, where he died the next day at 2 pm. The remains were taken to McPherson for interment. He is survived by his wife and four children, ranging in age from seven years to three weeks.

John Arnold, Veteran Stable Boss, Dies by Kick From Animal ~ WAS STRUCK IN THE STOMACH
John Arnold Had Been for Over a Score of Years Working for the Frick People at Broadford and Morgan and then Went to the Orient Works to Take a Similar Position.
John Arnold for a score of years located at Broadford and Morgan Station as a stable boss for the H C Frick Coke Company, and who was one of the men who went with O W Kennedy when he started the Orient Coke company works at Orient to take a similar position three years ago, was kicked by a horse on Monday afternoon, so badly that he died a few hours afterward at the Uniontown hospital. The horse kicked him with both hoofs, and the terrible blow caught, Mr. Arnold in the stomach. He never rallied from the shock, although there were intervals when he was conscious. He passed away in Uniontown Hospital about 7 o'clock. Doctors were called and the injured man was taken to the hospital arriving there about 4 o'clock. The family physician, Dr. A. W. Strickler, of Scottdale, was telephoned for and left there on the noon car. No skill could avail for the injured man. His wife, who has been in poor health for several years, is bearing up as well as can be expected under the circumstances. Mr, Arnold was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Arnold, who lived for many years at Morgan Station, coming originally from Frostburg, Md. The elder was one of the earliest coke workers in the region. He has been dead for several years, and his widow died about a year ago. The deceased was a man of most exemplary character, was a member of the Methodist Protestant Church, was a dutiful son and a kind and consistent husband and a firm and steady friend. As has been said, he was stable boss for many years for the Frick company, and when O. W. Kennedy, resigned as General Manager of that company, Mr. Arnold was one of those who went with him to the new company of which the former became the head. Mr. Kennedy was among those who were with Mr. Arnold when he died in the Uniontown hospital. The deceased is survived by his widow and following brothers and sisters: Charles Arnold, of Broadford; Nathan Arnold, Jr. and George Arnold of Orient, Fayette county, and Mrs Rachel Powers and Mrs Fannie Smith of Frostburg, Md.

Note: This one is a little confusing.  This is actually Mary Dieling d/o George and Eva Dieling(whatever sp). Joseph Smith was her mother's 3rd husband and looks like Mary used her step-father's name.  I don't know that her mother ever used the name Mary, but obits being what they are.............. 
On the 1870 census her name is Mary Dylin living in the Joseph Schmidt/Smith household.  According to census, she and Charles Arnold married about 1881.
