Spanish-American War Veteran
Turns First Spade Of Dirt
For GB's New VFW Building
By DOROTHY BOWMAN
Tribune-Press Staff Writer
A Spanish American War veteran, a
charter member of the post, turned
the first spade of earth as the VFW
here held ground breaking ceremonies
Wednesday for their new building to
be errected at the corner of 5th
and Washington streets. Proudly
handling the spade for this important
occasion was Hermon C. Colegrove,
1519 Washington an honored member
of Morrison - McFadden Post 3111.
"It's an organization binding those
who have seen like service in
foreign lands and seas together as
brothers. . . aye, more than
brothers-as comrads." And Colegrove
adds with all sincerity, "It's a
great organization."
This veteran Army man and soldier of
the old school just turned 86 three
days ago, on March 10. But specific
dates and events of the past roll
off his tongue with no effort of
recollection.
"The Morrison for which this VFW
post was names was a buddy of mine"
he relates. "It was Sidney M.
Morrison, my roommate at Salina
College. We Enlisted together when
the first call came for volunteers.
That was May 2, 1898."
"In fact" he recalls, "We served
together side by side until he was
wounded Feb 12 of the following
year." This seperated the two
young men until shortly before the
war was over. "In September 1903,
Morrison died of typhoid fever,"
Colegrove explains.
"We wew assigned to Company "M"
Kansas Volunteer Infantry. This
newly formed unit was composed of
young men and boys-students,
merchants, sons of merchants,
farmers, mechanics and so forth.
Most of them lived in Salina but
many lived in different parts of
the state."
"We were often referred to as Gen.
Frederick Funston's Fighting 20th
Kansans" From a meager beginning,
they went forth to establish quite
an enviable record for their unit.
"Mustered into the United States
Army May 9 1898, we went on guard
duty in Topeka dressed in civilian
clothes. There were some in
overalls others in tuxedos and every
thing from caps to plug hats. We
carried sticks or any other clubs
to use as guns while we slushed
around in the mud.
By May 20 the unit was sent to
San Francisco where we were assigned
to the blow sand grounds of Camp
Merritt. Sand was running into our
shoe tops as we stepped off the
pavement."
It was here that Col. Frederick
Funston first took charge of the
unit on June 18. He later became
their general.
By September the entire battalion
of 800 men was loaded into a
transport bound for the Philippines.
They arrived 40 days later. There
in rice plots and bamboo hedges they
fought battle for battle.
"The weather was unbearably hot. Men
filled their canteens from the river
water and many contacted malaria and
other diseases. Somehow I was lucky
very lucky I only missed three days
on sick leave during the whole time."
Recalling those days of hard fighting
Colegrove looks back on tragedy and
hardship interspersed with bits of
humor here and there.
Accually the Spanish American War
didn't last very long Colegrove explains
but it was followed by the Phillipine
Insurrection and the Chinese Revellion
in 1902. Colegrove received his
discharge Oct. 28 1899.
He takes great pride in General Funston
who later captured Agunaldo.
"I wrote to Agunaldo several years ago
I called him the the George Washington
of the Philippines. That seemed to
please him greatly so he sent me an
autographed picture taken when he was
on duty in the war."
Colegrove who is very well known in
this area came to Great Bend in 1903.
He worked in real estate and typewriter
supplies and opened his office supply
store here in 1928.
"Started with two pencils" he grins "sold
them and bought four." Twenty years later
the shop was worth $30,000. "People were
awfully good to me here" he says grate-
fully.
Since the death of his wife, this veteran
Army man has managed to do his own house
keeping. "You might say, I live alone
and don't like it," he laughs "This
grocery shopping is getting out of hand.
There are too many things to choose from
and then when I get them home I don't
know how to prepare them."
"My children want me to live with them,"
he adds "but I wouldn't leave this house
It's like a dear friend."

LIVED TOGETHER TWO DAYS.
-----------------
Colegrove Then Left His Wife, Who
Saw Him No More, Until She
Had Him Arrested.
Russell Colegrove, a son of James B.
Colegrove, President of the Washington,
Westminster and Gettysburg Railway, was
a prisoner in the Yorkville Police Court
yesterday charged with having abandoned
his wife, Ollie T. Colegrove. Mrs. Cole-
grove about twenty-three years old and
her husband is about thirty.
They were married secretly on Aug, 15,
1897, by the Rev. Mr. Blewitt of Thirty-
second Street, near Ninth Avenue. Cole-
grove, it is charged, left home a day or
two after the marriage and the wife did
not see him again until yesterday. Two
weeks ago she heard he Was in the city,
and secured a warrant for his arrest.
Colegrove was arrested late Saturday
night at the Lehigh Valley Railroad
station as he was about to leave for
Cleveland. His father was with him in
court yesterday, accompanied by his
counsel. George Robinson of 99 Nassau
Street. The wife was represented
by Herman A. E. Heydt of 27
William Street. Mrs. Colegrove told
Magistrate Cornell how her husband left
her two days after the marriage.
" He said he was employed on a Government
vessel," she said. " and that the vessel
was ordered to Boston. He said he
would send for me, but he never did so,
and I heard no more of him until I read in
the newspapers last September that he was
ill in California. I wrote to him. but re-
ceived no answer. His father came to see
me and said he was willing that his son
should take me home and care for me. I
paid I would not go. because he, the father,
had said that the son couldn't marry me,
and had warned me not to marry him, as
he was a pauper. He said if I did marry
he would make my life miserable. Because
of his father's opposition, we were married
secretly. . .
"In March of this year Mr. Robinson
called on me and tried to get me to go
home and live with my husband. I would
not agree to any such course, after being
deserted for four years. I wrote Mr.
Colegrove several letters later, but he
never replied."
Mrs: Colegrove said she was-Ollie Wynne
before her marriage. The husband told
the Magistrate that he was sent to Boston
by the Government, and from there was
ordered to Washington, and thence to
California, where he was taken ill. He
said that since then he had been to
Honolulu and to the Philippines.. He was
ill in both places, he said. He asserted
that he was willing to take his wife with
him and to provide her with a home. He
said he was living with his father at
Bath Beach.
The wife's counsel wanted the husband
put under bonds to provide for the wife,
but Magistrate Cornell said that he would
not do this. He thought that the woman
would be looked after if she would go to.
her husband's home. Colegrove was
discharged.

COLEGROVE
WILL CASE
IS SETTLES
Little Valley, Sept 24.--In
Supreme court yesterday, in the
matter of the probate of the
last will of Salina P. Colegrove,
deceased. Ansley and Ansley and H.
P. Nevins for proponent. George A.
Larkin and James P. Quigley for
contestant. P. S. Collins special
guardian for Mary Terry, infant
legatee. George H. Ansley special
guardian for Helen Nichols and
Philip B. Nichols, infant legatees.
The expected contest in this matter
did not develop. It was understood
that a settlement had been effected.
George H. Ansley, the attorney who
drew Mrs. Colegrove's will, was sworn
for the proponent and testified that
in May 1918 he was called to Mrs.
Colegrove's house. She handed him
some slips of paper and said she
wanted to make a will. There were
notes on the slips. He wont back to
his office and drew the will from the
notes. He asked Mrs. Cologrove who
she wanted for executrix and she
said Mrs. Nichols. At 3 o'clock Mr.
Ansle went back to the house with
Mr. Hoy, who was to be a witness.
Mrs. Colegrove was in bed. She asked
him to read the will and he did
so. She signed the will, and Mr. Hoy
and Mr. Ansley witnessed it. The
maid was the only one of the bene-
ficiaries in the house at the time.
Edwin F. Hoy, president of the
First National Bank of Salamanca,
also testified to the execution of
the will. He said that he had known
Mrs. Colegrove for 35 years and that
she appeared to be rational at the
time she made the will. He was exe-
cutor of the will of her husband, the
late Dr. Colegrove.
This completed the formal proof.
Justice Cole directed the jury to
answer in the affirmative the follow-
ing questions certified to the supreme
court from currogate's court. "Did
Salina P. Colegrove sign this paper?
Did she declare it to be her last will?
Was she of sound mind? Was she
free from restraint?"
The matter will now be returned
to surrogate's court for probate.
