Elva Foor Nearly Dragged Two Rescuers To Death at Picnic Tragedy. Wapello, IA., July 5 -- Elva Foor, 16 year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Foor of this place drowned in the Mississippi river near Port Louisa yesterday afternoon and Henry Harris and his son, Lawrence, who had gone to her rescue, barely escaped with their own lives as she struggled with them in the water. The girl was the guest of the Harris family at a picnic outing along the river and after lunch a group went wading. She started out from the shore at the wing dam, above the big dam at Port Louisa, and suddenly was swept off her feet either stepping into a hole or being caught by the current. Lawrence Harris went to her rescue and reached her but the girl jumped on his back and was dragging him down when the father plunged into the stream. The girl struggled with both of them in her panic and after the father and boy made futile efforts to bring her to shore they were finally forced to save themselves as they were overcome by her struggles. They body had not been recovered [at] noon today. It is believed it has been caughte in the brushes at that point and crews with grappling hooks and divers have been searching for the body. The girl was born Dec. 6, 1911 in Wapello, the fourth daughter of Frank and Artie Sellers Foor. She attended the local schools and this spring finished her junior year in high school.

Karyn Espenlaub writes in April 2001 that she heard from her cousin (no name) and she says "Feel free to let the person know that I will answer questions about the Foor's if they wish. However, my grandfather [Leslie] was adopted into the Foor family and his real ancestry was under the name of Border. I probably would not be of much help". Since the 1900 census shows this particular Leslie FOOR was an adopted son, I'm going to merge the two Leslie FOOR's together, even though the obituary for the other shows that he was the s/o "K. L. Foor". The fact that both were born in April 1885 is another connecting factor that leads me to believe that these two Leslie's are one and the same.

"MALCOLM KOCH. Among the pleasant homesteads in Stan tun Township, the 240
acres belonging to this gentleman occupy a conspicuous position and are distinguished for first-class improvements, and what is best of all, the property is unencumbered, the proprietor, like Longfellow's Village Blacksmith, being able to "look the whole world in the face, for lie owes not any man." One of the most attractive features of the farm is a stable of fine horses, among them being three imported English Clydes in which Mr. K. has
a half interest, and which are magnificent specimens of the noblest animal in the world. To this department of agriculture our subject has given particular attention and seems peculiarly adapted to it, as he has been remarkably successful in his operations.
Mr. Koch is a native of Berks County, Pa., born near Reading, July 5. 1837. He is the son of Adam and Mary A. (Gicker) Koch, the former born in 1785 and the latter in 1805. They were married in about 1833, and the father all his life was engaged in farming pursuits. Adam Koch remained a member of the parental household until the death of his father, when he was placed at the head of affairs, settled up the estate, bought a snug home for his mother and sisters near Reading, and provided for their future comfort and welfare. The death of the father took place in October, 1841, when he was fifty-six years of age. The mother survived her husband thirty-four years and died at the advanced age of seventy years in Fairfield County, Ohio. The maternal grandparents of our subject were of German origin and they also passed their last days in Berks County, near Reading.
Adam Koch and family moved to Fairfield County, Ohio, in 1839. Their family consisted of six sons and one daughter: Edwin was drowned when eighteen months old; R. C. married Miss Amanda C. Dresback, of Fairfield County, Ohio, and afterward removed to Champaign County, Ill., his death occurred in this county in March, 1870; and his widow is living at St. Joseph. Malcolm of this sketch was the third child. Adam, who was born in Fairfield County, Ohio, enlisted as a Union soldier in the 21st Ohio Infantry; he was captured by
the rebels at Chickamaugua and confined in both Libby and Andersonville for several months, and died in the latter prison a few days before the sur-
render of the Confederate army. Alfred entered the army in 1861, having enlisted in an Ohio regiment, and at the battle of Pittsburg Landing was
wounded and sent to the hospital. As soon as able to travel he was sent home on a furlough of thirty days, after which he returned to his regiment. He
was then attacked with serious illness and confined in the hospital at Memphis, Tenn., for ten or eleven months. When partially recovered he was appointed Ward Master in the hospital, and while in the discharge of his duties was taken with small-pox and soon afterward died; his decease occurred in the fall of 1863. Ann N. became the wife of Robert Hudson of this county on the 1st of January, 1865, and died in February, 1866; Jonah married Miss
Susan Foor, of P'airfield County, Ohio, and they are now living in St. Joseph Township, this county.
Our subject, after leaving his native State, sojourned for a time in Ohio, coming to this State in 1864. Before he had perfected his arrangements
for establishing himself in the West, he provided himself with a companion, namely, Miss Mercella E. Peer, to whom he was married in Franklin County,
Ohio, Sept. 29, 1859. Of this union there were born four children, three dying in infancy ; Mary, after reaching years of womanhood, passed away on
the 5th of December, 1880. The wife and mother departed this life in Franklin County, Ohio, Jan. 6, 1864. She was the daughter of William and Sarah
Peer. The second wife of our subject, to whom he was married April 7, 1864, was Miss Mary E. Thrush, a native of Hancock County, Ohio, born in 1834, and the daughter of Jacob and Olivia (Spurgeon) Thrush, also natives of the Buckeye State. The mother died young, being only twenty-five years of age. Jacob Thrush is still living and a resident of Cornell, Livingston County, this State, being sixty-nine years of age. The children of this marriage, five in number, are recorded as follows: Olivia J., is the wife of James White, a prosperous farmer of Stanton Township; Medelphia A., Lloyd
M., George L. and Cora A. are at home with their parents.
Mr. Koch sold out his interests in Franklin County, Ohio, in October, 1864, and coming to this State, located first in St. Joseph Township. He purchased his present farm in Stanton Township on the 10th of April, 1866. It included eighty acres of uncultivated prairie, for which he paid $6.87 1/2 per acre. His first business was to commence the erection of the dwelling which, however, cost more than he anticipated, and the finances running low it was not completed for some time afterward. He had no money to buy shingles and
windows, but the family took possession of it and managed to live quite comfortably during the summer season and in the meantime he worked at it by
degrees, laying aside a dollar for the purpose of buying what was needed until it was finally finished. That time was quite in contrast with the present, as he now has a fine house, a large barn, and everything required for the comfort and convenience of the modern farmer. His persevering industry and excellent judgment served him well and a few years brought a great change in his financial condition. He added to his purchase as time progressed and now, in viewing the result of his labors and realizing the comforts and luxuries of his home, feels amply repaid for the difficulties and anxieties through which he passed in the earlier years. He and his family are connected with the Friends' Church, and at the polls he assists to the best of his ability in the election of Democratic candidates.
