from Freeport Bulletin, June 12, 1918, on microfilm at Freeport Library:

DENIAL MADE OF REPORTED DISLOYALTY FRED TERHARK, SR. CALLED BEFORE DISTRICT BOARD YESTERDAY

Denial was made before the members of the District Exemption Board yesterday afternoon by Fred TerHark, Sr., a farmer living near Rock City, concerning an alleged seditious remark made by him when his son, Fred Jr., was recently placed in class I. TerHark was reported to have said, "I hope the United States will get h___ licked out of it."

TerHark said such a remark had never been made by him and he was at a loss to know how such a story could be circulated. Robert J. Steward, a member of the Council of National Defense, was called before the board, and further denial was made. Further investigation is in the hands of Mr. Stewart. TerHark's son had been exempted 90 days because his father was ill with pneumonia. At the end of that time the son was placed in class I.

from Freeport Journal Standard, June 12, 1918, on microfilm at Freeport Library:

ROCK RUN FARMER DENISE KNOCKING U.S. REPORTED TO HAVE SAID HE HOPED AMERICA WOULD "GET ___ KNOCKED OUT OF HER"

"I hope the United States gets hell licked out of it." The above remark is accredited to a well-known and prosperous farmer of Rock Run Township, Stephenson County, and the remark was the subject of a thorough investigation by the Fourth District Board at its special session here yesterday. The man who is alleged made the statement, with his son, was present and they both denied that such a remark was made. The names of several prominent Rock Run Township farmers were mentioned, it being alleged that the men heard the remark.

The accused was strong in his denial of the charge made against him, stating that he was a Hollander; that he was a resident of this country for the past 27 years and that the United States was "very, very good" to him and that he "made money here." He stated that if he was called upon to fight he would go and that he had no objection to his son going if he was permitted to remain with him until the crops were harvested. The case was finally turned over to the Council of National Defense for further action.

from Freeport Bulletin, 6/15/1918, on microfilm at Freeport Library:

DID NOT SAY TO H___ WITH U.S. GOVERNMENT THOMAS TERHARK PATRIOTIC CITIZEN, 100 PERCENT LOYAL HAS BOUGHT LIBERTY BONDS AND AIDED IN OTHER WAR ACTIVITIES

"One hundred percent loyal and a patriotic American."

The foregoing briefly summarizes the result of the investigation of a remark alleged to have been made by Thomas TerHark of Rock Run Township when it was declared he had expressed the sentiment, "I hope the U.S. government gets the hell knocked out of it." Report of the alleged statement was made to federal authorities. Investigation was made yesterday with many of the neighbors being interrogated and at its close it was stated that there was no basis to the rumor that Mr. TerHark had made the remark.

Aids all War activities

Investigation was conducted by Ralph Ravenscroft, the federal department of justice, who was accompanied to the TerHark home by Robert J. Stewart of Freeport, a member of the council of national defense. Not only was denial made by TerHark that he had expressed such a thought but investigation among many neighbors who were supposed to be in possession of the fact disclosed that none had heard Mr. TerHark say anything of the kind or any remark which could have been construed as such. Instead of Mr. TerHark's being possessed of the thought that the United States ought to be whipped it was shown that he and his family are doing all that is possible for the United States and its allies. Mr. TerHark has taken his quota of liberty bonds and has subscribed to the war chest fund. He has aided in the Red Cross movement and the women members of his household have encouraged him in all of these activities.

Mr. TerHark's alleged remark is said to have been uttered when his son, Fred, was placed in class I.

Then Sadie died of sugar diabetes. Mom (Ida Traut) was about 9 years old when Sadie died. About four years later Henry Johnson married Nellie Dakin Chalfante (? spelling); they had no children."

German Valley, 23 August 18??
Greeting from America

Dear sister today i am sitting down to write you a few letters (literally "letters of the alphabet)

I can write to you that I am still in good health. I hope the same for you, if it were otherwise with you I would be heartily sorry. Now, dear sister, I can write to you now that i have received your letter and that I saw in it that you were still in good health and that it made me very happy. Now I can write you that Frederik and Jana were married on 8 August and Teujes (Teunis? a common Dutch name) and Gezien (later in this letter spelled Geesien, the usual spelling of this, not unusual Dutch name) have acquired (literally: conquered, an expression completely unknown today) a small boy called Frederik. Now my dear sister, I must write to you that you should not make yourself unhappy about it, for it will surely not take very much longer before you are also here with us, you know.

Yes, Lientje, Sievertjes is giving the letter to me to finish (literally: to write it full). If only you were here too, then you would perhaps have more to enjoy that you have there. There are fine boys here, so do not think about it too long and come over. But you must decide for yourself (literally: you just know it yourself, too), I tell no one what to do (literally: I do not advise anybody) but you can earn more here, than where you are in Weener (?). The seasons are not advantageous this year though. In Dakota and Iowa most of the crops have dried out. There is a drought here such as I have never seen before and yet here in Illinois we cannot yet complain. We have a good crop this year, it could be better but we must be content with what grows for us.

The socialists have been fighting again, but are now quiet. It has cost several lives (literally: several have come to death by it), one simply shot the other. It did not happen close to us, mostly in Chicago and in the coal mines.

Well, Lientje, when you write back to me or my Olske (my "old one", endearment term for spouse) write about what kind of young man you have.

You must not wait too long, otherwise it is possible that your sister will be ahead of you. Frederik and Janna (Jana, before) are married as you know. I believe they have loved each other a bit too much, but i do not know for sure. And Tuins (Teunis?, see above) and Geesien have acquired a boy so that your family has increased with three men this year. I think you have not seen (met?) me, but come here to us and then you can see (meet) me and I also have a boy here for you, in case you do not have one.

Well, Engeliene, do write back to me. I do not have much time because it is time for bed. One works long days here, but when you (...word illegible because of crease in paper, but probably "come when you can work) to my farm. They are English but I would help you to understand and make it. Greetings from your friend H.E. Jansen and sister S. ter Hark. My address is: Henry Johnson (literal translation of Henderik Jansen), Egan City, Ill. North America.

W. All the family is in good health as far as I know and hope that you may read this letter in health. Regards to friends and acquaintances, and the more people return to Europe the better for us and I and "mien Olske" (endearment for: my old one) are not going to year for it. Good night.

Comments on letter from H.E. Jansen (by the translator):

Weener is a small town or a village which is now situated just across the border from the North-eastern province of the Netherlands, called Groningen. It may have been part of Groningen at one time. Since the second world war, and perhaps earlier, some border corrections have been made. This may have been one of them. Engeliene (now spelled Engelien) would be abbreviated to Lien.

The diminutive of Lien is Lientje. "je" or "tje" indicates a diminutive, see: Sievertje. Henderis is now spelled: Hendrik.
Thank you for the opportunity to translate these two fascinating letters.

Webster City 1906 December 31

Dearly beloved father and mother, sisters and brothers,

Today I am sitting down to write a little (note) note to you too.

I can write to you that there are no beautiful red ones here whatsoever (apples ? chickens ?) otherwise we would have visited you again around mid-winter, but just when Henderik had sold so much fruit, he could not get it out in time because of the bad red ones. Well, if there are no obstacles whatever, then I think we shall come by the end of January. Well, dear parents, brothers and sisters, then we can celebrate New Year at that time.

Hendrik's father also has already been ill 5 months. he does not always lay in bed but he hardly gets around anymore, he has jaundice and in addition such itching, sometimes he does not know where to turn. In addition he also has had an intestinal illness with it. Well, dear parents, how are you, are you reasonable strong? I know now quite a few world 9english?), Ida is going to school every day and is already a great support to me.

How are you making out with eggs? Here they cost 28 cents and butter 26 cents. I get hardly any eggs though, 1 and 2 per day and that is all. Butter around 30 lb a week, but that is good payment.

Well, dear parents, brothers and sisters, I know nothing more to write.

With cordial greetings

Sievertje ter Hark
Ida Rustiena Jansen
Henderik Jansen
(at this point in the letter there was a bottle and glass and the word "proost"...the word means "cheers.")
***
Comments: the few words added in parentheses are the translators's.

Undoubtedly the recipients of the letter understood all about "the red ones." There is a type of chicken which I believe is called Rhode Island Rd; it could have referred to these. Bad apples would hardly have prevented the writer from traveling, unless it was a crop to be sold for traveling expenses. An effort has been made to make the translation as literal as possible to preserve the quaintness of the language.

As far as eggs and butter are concerned, the writer was apparently allowed to keep the butter money as wages. The number of eggs gathered: 1 & 2 per day, makes it probable that the "red ones" are indeed chickens, which were not laying much.

Nancy Wagand writes: In the early 1970s I located Hendrik's son Frederik and corresponded with him until his death in 1976. Frederik sent a picture and on the back was written; taken in 1896..seated on chairs: Friederk TerHark, born March 27, 1833 in Beerta, the Netherlands; his wife, Grietje Straten, born June 10, 1833 in Weiner, Germany; next to his father, with hand on shoulder, their son Anno, between their parents their daughter, Engeline. Man on left, probably named Staal, according to Grietje TerHark, the little girl, daughter of Hendrik TerHark and Nomke Aldershoff. All emigrated to America, April 29, 1896, except Grietje TerHark, the little girl, born December 22, 1890.

Frederik also sent information on the TerHarks still living in Holland and some of the Nieman's, along with a couple of pictures. Frederik's son, Frits, visited in our home in the early 1970s. We held an open house at that time and many relatives came to meet him.
This letter was in with some of my Aunt Grace's things. I typed it exactly as possible from the original:

'GRAVENZANDE, the thirteenth of April 1936

My Dear family in America:

I shall try to type you an letter in your language and send five of it to uncle Thos and uncle Kasper, I think they will send the letters to the other uncles and aunts, whose address me is unknown.

I am the oldest son of your brother and sister Hindrik terHark and Nomke Aldershoff and mij name is Frederik terHark.

As you know, our Father was deceased at the 8th of November last year. It was always the best protector of his family un man with a very sound constitution, but he fell and 10 days after it he was dead. But we had yet our dear Mother, poor dear Mother, who was very ill at the burial of our Father so ill, that we thought also her to must lose. But yet we were happy to see that she grew better, at least so seemed it. But yet, we saw it, Mother had an weak constitution. The 27th of March she again was very ill and on Sunday the 29th of March, also she died.

So we have lost within five months both our best dear parents Father was 69 years old and Mother was 65 years. Never, never, we shall forget them. They had ten children and all were so happy with her father and mother. My oldest sister is 45 and my youngest 27 years old.

My dear uncles, aunts, cousins and cousins when you will write to me I'll find it very fine, I can better your language read than write, mij address is: f. terHark, chief of police 's, Gravenzande. Van de Kasteelestraat Nr. 46. (Holland)

For all you many greetings, from your unknown, but loving cousin F. terHark, my Wife Aaltje de Vries, our four children Hendrik, Klasina Nomke, Pieter and Frits and all my sisters and brothers in Holland.

At 3 p.m. today I had a phone call from Judy Hall. Aunt Ann died about 2 p.m. today. She was still in the hospital ... has been there 3 weeks or more. She sat up yesterday and seemed to be doing ok when Judy and Jerry were there last night. Judy talked to the nurses this morning ... Aunt Ann had a bath and bows in her hair ... all ready for Judy to come. Judy and Jerry went to a friend's children's first communion first ... got a phone call while there ... Aunt Ann had slept away.

She will be cremated and a memorial service will be held at their church but I don't know when.

TerHark-McCuen:
The wedding of Miss Clarabelle McCuen and George TerHark took place
Sunday afternoon at the Presbyterian church. Rev. Brainerd N. Clevert was
the officiating clergyman.
The church was decorated with white larkspur; hydrangeas and ferns, with
five and seven-branch candelabra, holding ivory candles on either side of
the altar. Miss Velma Wachlin presided at the organ, playing the wedding
march and accompanying Miss Effie Bruce in her two songs, "I Love You
Truly" and "At Dawning."
The bride wore a white satin gown, made on Princess lines, a finger-tip
veil, and carried a shower bouquet of roses and forget-me-nots.
She entered with her brother, Mervin Hasselman. Miss Jennie terHark,
sister of the groom, was maid of honor and wore a peach colored lace
dress (my note: she still had the dress and could still get into it at
George and Clarabelle's 50th wedding celebration, but I can't remember if
she could get it completely fastened in the back) and short face veil
held in place with blue delphiniums. She carried yellow roses and
delphinium. Carl Milligan was best man and the ushers were Bill Staas and
Ronald Snyder. Marilyn Jean Staas and Dorothy Ann Sauer, cousins of the
bride, in frocks of blue dotted Swiss and carrying French bouquets,
served as junior bridesmaids.
A reception followed the ceremony in the parlor of the church, ninety
guests being included in the invitations. The guests were received by the
bridal party and by Mrs. McCuen, who wore a navy blue dress. The bridal
table held a three tiered wedding cake with miniature bride and groom
topping the confection. Presiding at the table were the Misses Gertrude
Elmer, Esther Fitzgerald, Velma and Violet Strohacker and Mrs. W. G.
Staas.
The bride, daughter of Mrs. Charles McCuen, West Clark street, is a
graduate of Freeport high school, class of 1937, and is secretary of the
Freeport branch of station WROK.
The groom, who is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Fred TerHark, conducts
an orchestra and teaches piano and accordion. He and his bride will live
at 616 West Cottonwood street.
