Accidently Shot Himself: Tuesday about noon, Joe
WAKEFIELD, 16 years old, residing about five
miles southeast of this city, accidentally shot
himself, which caused his death that night about 12
o’clock. Young WAKEFIELD and a neighbor boy
had walked to Omega and were returning home and
were in the timber near the residence of Rev. W.J.
SIMER and WAKEFIELD was carrying his gun
under his right arm when it was accidentally
discharged, the full charge entering the calf of this
right leg. The boy with him ran for help and H.
SIMERS hitched a team to a wagon and hauled the
wounded boy home, and in the meantime, Dr.
MILLER was sent for. The Dr. arrived at the
WAKEFIELD home soon after the arrival of the
boy, and he immediately called for another
physician and Dr. J. AKESTER was summoned.
By the time Dr. MILLER arrived, which was about
2 hours after the accident, the loss of blood had
been so great the boy was very weak, but the Dr.
tied the leg above the knee and stopped the flow of
blood. The two physicians decided the only chance
to save the boy’s life was to amputate the limb,
which they did. The boy had become so weak from
the loss of blood before the doctors arrived that he
never rallied from the operation and died about 12
o’clock that night. This is indeed a very sad
accident and should be another warning for men as
well as boys to never carry a gun cocked - no
matter whether it is loaded or not.

Our subject's wife is the daughter of Reuben B. and Phoebe Stokley Weese, both natives of Pennsylvania,
having come here
from Mercer county, Pennsylvania, to Warrick county, Indiana. There are three children in the Weese
family, namely : Fena B., wife of our subject; George W., and Jennie. The wife of our subject was three
years old when her parents moved to Indiana. The date of her birth is recorded as May 20, 1851, having

Benjamin D. Craig is very active in handling all kinds of farming implements and machinery used for
upto-date farm work,
most of his stock being purchased of the P. P. Mass & Company, of Springfield, Ohio, and the Racine
Saddlery Company of
Springfield, Illinois. He understands machinery and always handles the best grades that the market
affords, and owing to his
careful buying he is enabled to sell his stock at reasonable figures, and therefore has a wide patronage. In
politics he is a loyal
216
Democrat, first voted for Samuel T- Tilden.
He has never been a partisan, being contented to attend strictly to individual affairs and assist in placing
the best men possible in
the county offices, and his support can always be depended upon when questions are before the public
equiring definiteness of
purpose in deciding them for the right.
In his religious affiliations his support is not given to any special church, however, he believes in
Christianity. His parents were
Methodists. The parents of Mrs. Craig are also Methodists. Our subject is regarded as one of the loyal and
progressive business
men of his township, and owing to the fact that all of his useful life has been spent within the borders of
Marion county, he is
well known in every township, especially in Kinmundy, where he maintains his home, and where he is
regarded as one of the substantial men of the community.

JAMES K. CRAIG.
Among the men who have been largely instrumental in developing and advancing the opulent natural
resources of Marion county, Illinois, stands the gentleman whose name initiates this review and whose
fine farm property, in Omega township, is one of the many attractive and valuable rural domains of this
favored section of the
Sucker state.
James K. Craig was born in Kentucky, December 28, 1824, and came with his parents to Marion county,
Illinois, at the age of twelve and one-half years. The father of the subject was James Craig, who was born
in the Blue Grass state June i, 1784.
His mother was also born in Kentucky in April, 1787. Her maiden name was Sevilla Hanks, being a sister
of Lincoln's mother, Nancy Hanks. They were people of fine traits of character and were known as hard
workers and kindly disposed. In their
family were nineteen children, our subject being next to the youngest in order of birth. James Craig, the
subject's father,
was at one time the richest man in Hardin county, Kentucky, but he lost his land claim by others who
lawed him out of both right
and title.
Mr. Craig came to Illinois in 1837 and settled in the wilderness. He took up no land for all was common
ground, and he decided that he had rather not have any land as all was free to till, hunt on and use in
whatever way struck the pioneer's fancy. Samuel H. Craig, the elder brother of the subject, captured an
Indian pony at Kellogg's Grove and brought it home while the Indians were trying to burn the settlers'
houses in that vicinity.
Money was very scare in those days, being for the most part in small bills, called "shin plasters." There
was some gold, but
no silver. Our subject remembers going five and one-half miles to the post-office, bareheaded and
barefooted and paying
217
twenty-five cents, the price of postage, before receiving his letter. No letter could be received until this
amount was paid. He was
for many years the only man in his community who took a paper, a weekly, "The People's Organ," now
led the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. It cost one dollar per year, and it was loaned to the whole neighborhood to be read.
Our subject was united in marriage with Catherine Wilkinson, the daughter of Jehu Wilkinson, of Scotch
descent, the day of their wedding occurring on February 25, 1847. Nine children were born to this union,
six of whom are living in 1908. Mr.
Craig has fifteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. The following are the names of the subject's
children : Benjamin D., James H., Elizabeth, Sarah, Ann, Samuel, Jehu, Ida and John E.
