4Clark County, Wisconsin Rootsweb site, www.rootsweb.com/~wiclark/, from Loyal Tribune, 18 Apr 1918. "From the Loyal Tribune, Thursday April 18, 1918 Mrs. Charles Harding died at her home in West Beaver, Wednesday evening April 10th. at the age of 73 years, 10 months, and 24 days. Pamela Ann Pierce was born in Warren Co. New York, May 17, 1844. When she was quite small she came with her parents by way of Milwaukee to Vernon Co. where she grew to young womanhood. In early girlhood she was converted and became one of Christs followers, joining the M. E. Church. She was a very patient sufferer, waiting for her Masters call. She was one of Christs followers for 60 years, the last few months she was longing for the call "Come Home". About 51 years ago she came to what is now the village of Loyal, and on Sept. 23, 1868 was united in marriage to Mr. C. D. Harding forming the third family at Loyal. Shortly after marriage they moved to their homestead three miles East of Loyal where they made their home for 9 years. Then to the village of Loyal where they lived for 14 years. About 26 years ago they moved to West Beaver where she resided with her son Lewis where she passed away. Mr. Harding died June 4, 1908 at the old home. Four children were born to this union, Minnie, Cornelia, George, and Lewis. Both girls passed away, and George has'nt been heard from for three years. Deceased leaves to mourn her loss, her son Lewis, one brother Frank Pierce of Quinyun, N. Dak. and two sisters, Mrs. J. Tinin of Fond du Lac and Mrs. Phoebe Oxford of Mont., besides a host of friends and neighbors who extend their heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved ones.

Arrested for Bigamy

John Arket, a character who has been living in this neighborhood for the past few years and who has gained considerable notoriety by his escapades, was arrested last Tuesday by Frank Delles, city marshal, on a charge of bigamy.

Some two years a go Arket first came into notice on account of a warrant sworn out by a young lady of this city charging him with being the paternal progenitor of an embryo inhabitant, without having first gone through the formality of obtaining a legal pronounciamento declaring them to be man and wife.

Arket, however, escaped prosecution by marrying the aforesaid miss, whom he almost immediately deserted.

Reports, is some way, reached the ears of the father-in-law of Arket, that the notorious John had been previously married, and that his wife was still living.  Investigation disclosed the fact that the report was apparently true, whereupon City Marshal Delles immediately started for the Oneida reservation some ten Miles west of De Pere, to subpoena the Rev. S. W. Ford, a missionary among the Oneida Indians, who was reported to be the minister who married John to Mrs. Arket No. 1.  The marshal accordingly sought out Ford and found him to be a genial and obliging gentleman of about 60 years, from whom he learned that Arket had been married in 1867, in Milwaukee county, and that wife No. 1 was living in Neilsville, at the expense of the town, the considerate John having deserted her.

The marshal having accomplished his purpose, returned to this city, Mr. Ford promising to come down yesterday afternoon, and appear at the examination, which was set for this morning at 9 o'clock before Court Commissioner Tholen.



Sep 1, 1883;  p. 8, col. 3
Held for Trial

John Arket, who was arrested for bigamy last week had his preliminary examination last Saturday before Court Commissioner Tholen.

The most important witness examined was Rev. S. W. Ford, of the Oneida reservation, who testified as to the fact of Arket's first marriage, which occurred in Milwaukee county in 1867.  Ford recognized the prisoner as a person whom he had seen before but could not recollect where or at what place.

At the conclusion of the examination Arket was held in $1000 bonds, which not being forthcoming, he was remanded to jail, there to await the action of the Circuit Court.


Sep. 8, 1883;  p. 8, col. 3
Convicted

John Arquet, who was arrested some time ago for bigamy, had his trial before the Circuit Court this week.  Arquet was first married in 1867, to a Miss Todhunter, at Wauwatosa, and afterwards moved to Neilsville, where Mrs. Arquet still lives.  Arquet, in 1877, was sentenced to four years in state prison, for horse stealing, in Winnebago county.  At the expiration of his term of service, Arquet came to this neighborhood, and worked for several farmers hereabout.  Shortly after his arrival here, he married a Miss Judd, to escape a criminal prosecution.  In some manner, probably from the indiscreet talk of Arquet himself, the report was started that he had another wife living.  The authorities investigating the matter found the report to be true, and caused the man's arrest.

The case was given to the jury Thursday afternoon, but the evidence was so conclusive that it required but a few minutes to agree on a verdict, which was: guilty.

Friday, Arquet was brought before Judge Sloan to receive his sentence.  The Judge sentenced him to three years in the state prison, and gave him some good advice.  Arquet, on receiving his sentence, was moved to tears, and promised to reform when released.


Sep. 15, 1883;  p. 8, col. 3
Sentenced


John Arquet, who was last week convicted of bigamy by the Circuit Court, and sentenced to three years in state prison, would probably have received a much longer sentence but for several mitigating circumstances.  Through the influence of Mr. Tom B. Philpoth, of Loyal, Wis., ex-sheriff of Clark Co., Arquet was prevailed upon to deed his wife, considerable property, which he had acquired during his sojourn in this city, amounting to two or three hundred dollars, and also to transfer what funds he had, some $60, to his wife.  These facts were taken into consideration by the judge when sentence was pronounced, and in consequence Arquet escaped with a much lighter sentence than would otherwise have been accorded him.  Mr. Philpoth deserves great praise, from the people of Clark County, for having prevailed upon Arquet to relinquish his title to the property, as he, (Philpoth), done a good act for the county and for Mrs. Arquet.   Mrs. Arquet is said to be a respectable and hard working woman, who has, with some slight assistance from the town, managed to support herself and five small children.  Arquet was conveyed this week to Waupun, by Sheriff Spehn, where he will have an unequaled opportunity for contemplating the folly of disregarding the laws of the great commonwealth of Wisconsin."

The body of Al Arquette, who was killed by falling dirt in a mine on Friday, May 24, 1912, at Wallace, Idaho, arrived last Sunday.

The deceased, a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Arquette of this village (Loyal, Clark County, Wis.), was twenty-five years of age and left here seven years ago for the west. He was known to many here and respected.

He was born March 23, 1887, in the town of Wood in Wood County, where he resided for fifteen years; then with his parents he moved to this town, where he stayed until at the age of eighteen he went to Dakota and from there went to Spokane, Wash., where he worked for five years. From there he went to Wallace, Idaho to work for the Federal Mining and Smelting Co. as timberman. He, with four others, were putting in timbers in a secluded part of the mine. He and one of the others were surprised by and buried beneath a sudden fall of ore and earth. Before his co-workers could reach him he was dead.

He leaves to mourn his loss a father, mother, four brothers and three sisters.

The funeral services were held at the M. E. Church on Sunday afternoon and the remains buried in the M. E. Cemetery."

THE ENGLISH FAMILY.



In the History of the " Peirce Family, of Watertown," written by my
friend Mr. Frederick C. Peirce, of Barre, Mass., he alludes to John Pers,
the ancestor of that branch in this country, as being " John Pers, of
Norwich, Norfolk County, England, weaver."

As yet the ancestry in England of the Peirce family has not been
followed out in an authentic manner ; but in the " History of Norwich,
Norfolk County, England," under the head of St. Peter's Church, in
that town, we find the following in relation to the family living there
th en : — "Sparks Chantry, in this church was granted, July 23rd, in the
4th of Edward VI., with all its lands and rents, &c., in the tenure of
Robermore, to Nicholas le Strange. And in the 23rd of Elizabeth,
Peter Perse, cousin and heir of Humphrey Cony, late of this town, held
part of these lands, being son of Thomas Perse, son of Margaret Perse,
sister of John Cony, father of Humphrey."

It will be seen by this that there was a family by the name there at
that time, and that also there was a Thomas in the family. It is
reasonable to suppose therefore that our Thomas was of this family,
and that he was brother of the John alluded to, and also of Robert, of
Dorchester, as the same coat of aims is found in that family.
