AMELIA Sixty years of mar
ried life on the same ranch is
some sort of a record in the Ne
braska sandhills.
But that's not all. M. L.
("Link") Sageser is 90. his wife,
Lillian, is 80, and they're not
about to abandon life on the
prairie close to the cattle, hay
nelds and lakes which they love
„o well.
Easter Sunday, April 6, the
Sagesers were honored at opon
nousi at the home of their son,
at the edge of this sou til west Hull
coumy community where the
name of the village and the fam
ily name of Sageser are some
what synonymous.
The affair was arranged by
Sageser s son. Vei n, and his wife,
Blanche, and the Sagesers' other]
son, f)r. Bower of Manhattan,
Kans., and his wife, Ruth.
The Sageser s actual anniver- ,
sary date was March 17, but th<
formal observance was delayed
in anticipation of better road and
weather conditions. But that's
not the way it turned out. A blan
ket of wet snow covered the
the ground Easter morn and
where there wasn't snow there
was water and mud after several
days of eontinous rain.
Roads Impassable
Many friends of the couple
particularly from Chambers
on the east—were unable to
negotiate state highway 95. A
highway maintainor or tractor
was needed to pull cars through.
T h e Sagesers' 50th wedding
celebration 10 years ago also was
held on Easter Sunday March
28, 1948.
Refreshments of ice cream,
cake, coffee and mints were ser
ved to 75 persons at the 1958 af
fair.
Mr. Sageser was born January!
16, 1868, in Illinois. His 'father
had served in the Union army
during the Civil war under a
general named Malankton Lin
coln. Somehow from that handle
there evolved the name "Link" |
for the son who was to figure)
prominently in south-Holt aftairs
for many years.
The Civil war veteran took his
young family and also his fathei
to Alton, la., where the Sages>t*
lived a number of years. "Link ’
was an infant at the time of the
move. "Link" was 19-years-old
when he accompanied his father
and grandfather to Holt county,
travelling in a covered wagon
drawn by two horses and one
mule.
"Link’s" mother, one sister
and two brothers came later by
rail to O'Neill.
"Link's" father filed for a
homestead south of Chambers.
His lather was a meat cutter
by trade.
Born in Kentucky
Mrs. Sageser’s maiden name
was Lillian Mae Clauson. She j
was born January 26, 1878 at (
Upton. Ky., a small town south
of Louisville.
Her relatives were divided on1
the slave question. Some had
slaves; some didn't. Some uncles,
were in the Union army; others
in the Confederate army She
remembers Grandfather Pritle as
"the worst old rebel who ever (
lived!"
David A. Clauson loaded up his
wife and two children, Thomas
and Lilliam Mae. and headed for
Colorado. The mother suffered
from tuberculosis. After a short
stay in Colorado, the Clausens
returned to Kentucky, only to re
turn West and land in Holt in the
summer of 1895. The Clausons
stopped initially at O'Neill, then
Chambers and then Amelia. Mae
was "about 18”.
Mr. Clauson was a red-hot
democrat and mem tiers of the
party were few in southwestern
Holt at that time, It was fashion
able to be a populist.
Within one week after his ar
rival Mr. Clauson was appointed
postmaster at Amelia. Mail came
in only three days a week (from
Atkinson' and once or twice a
week would continue on to Bal
lagh. All of the dwellings in

Deliberates 8 Hours
Following 4 - Day
Damage Case Here
A Holt county district court
jury at 10:45 p.m., Thursday
found in favor of Duane Ander
son, 25, of Omaha, in a persona]
injury action against Lloyd
Evans, an Atkinson rancher.
Anderson was awarded eight
thousand-dollars damages by the
jury, which deliberated over eight
hours. The trial was in pro
gress at O’Neill four days with
District Judge Eyle Jackson of
Neligh presiding and substitu
ting for District Judge D. R
Mounts, who is ill.
Anderson was suing Evans for
110-thousand-dollars. alleging he
was 18-years-old at the time he
was burned in a farm accident
near Atkinson.
The explosion of a tank of fuel
oil took place August 6, 1955. An
derson was burned about the body <
and was hospitalized extensively.
Anderson on the stand told the
iurj he was acting under instruc
tions of Evans.
Evans denied this-telling the
court he had told the youth not
to pour fuel oil on a truck rack
stake being burned.
Two years ago a Holt district
court jury awarded Anderson 10
thousand-dollars. Evans appealed
to the supreme court of Nebras
ka, which found seven reversible
technical errors and remanded
the case to Holt distinct court for
retrial. One of the errors, the high
court said, was in Judge Mounts’
instructions to the jury in the
1956 action. In the original pe
tition, Anderson’s attorneys made
Evans' wife a defendant. The
nigh court, in returning the suit
[or retrial, said the burden of
proof that Mrs. Evans was a
iartner of Mr. Evans rested with
he plaintiff. She was omitted
n the amended petition.
In last week’s issue of The
■frontier it was stated Anderson
lad been employed for the sum
Tior by Evans. Testimony, how
ever, showed Anderson had been
engaged only the day before the
iccident at $8 per day plus board
ind room.
Two of the jurors in last week's
trial did not sign the verdict:
Mrs. Clyde (Elsie) Streeter of
P Neill and Miss Evelyn Broeker
it Stuart.
Others agreeing on the eight
thousand-dollar judgement were
Mrs. Helen Braun of Atkinson.
Mrs. Irma Carr of Atkinson, Ray
mond Dexter of Amelia. Don W.
