1888, Independence Co., AR, Civil War Affidavit

Blankenship, William

In matter of claim. Jane E. Ross mother of James Q. & Thomas J. Blankinship.
              Personally came before me, a Notary Public in and for the aforesaid county and state, Wm A. Buck, aged 57 years, James C. McLean, aged 62 years and Noah Haddock, aged 44 years, each residents of  Convenience,  in Independence County and State aforesaid, who being duly sworn, declare in relation to the aforesaid case as follows:
              That they were each personally acquainted with
Wm Blankinship and his wife, Jane E. Gilmore before and after their marriage. They did not see them married but know that the said Wm Blankinship came to his father-in-law's house sick and died a few days thereafter with the measles - We live on

adjoining farms to the one on which he died in the month of March in the year of 1865 - they know that he was taken Prisoner by the Confederates about one month or 30 days before he died - and they further declare that they have no interest in said case and that they are not concerned in the prosecution of said case.
Witness; J.F. Miller, William A. Buck, James C. McLean, W.D. Saddler, Noah x Haddock
              Sworn to and subscribed before me this 11th day of April, 1888, and I hereby certify that the contents of the foregoing affidavit were fully made known, and explained to the affiants before swearing thereto; that the said affiants are to me well known, and are respectable and worthy of full credit; and I

further certify that I have no interest direct or indirect, with prosecution of this claim.

              Herban E. Fort, Notary Public

“Pension Office Government stamp dated U APR241888
These pension papers are taken from the files of
William C. Blankenship, son of Hargrove Blankenship. It is not likely he was the right Blankenship as he was too young to have married in 1856 and is found to still be living with his family at age 18 in MO 1860 census. The mixup is still a mystery. “

Mountain Echo Newspaper,  February 1888

Prof. J. W. Blankenship, of the Rally Hill Academy, was fined for punishing a student of his school.  Quite a large number of the patrons of the school endorsed the professor in a card published in the Harrison Times last week.

Blankenship, Jesse

Mountain Echo Newspaper, July 1888

Doc Blankenship, of Sugar Loaf Township, was lodged in jail Tuesday to await the action of the grand jury.  He is charged with rape.  No particulars.

Geo. Lawson and Ben Weast took Doc Blankinship to Harrison last week and placed him in the Boone county jail for safe keeping.  Mr. McFann, of Taney county, Mo., one of Blankinship's attorneys, informs us that the report that Blankinship had served a term in the Missouri penitentiary for rape, was a mistake.  The crime for which he was sent to the pen. was for assault with intent to kill.  As the report was published in The Echo, from and exchange, we cheerfully make the correction and give the prisoner his due.
Mountain Echo Newspaper, September 21, 1888

Next Monday week an adjourned term of circuit court will be convened here.  Jesse Blankenship, charged with rape, will be tried at this term, and several other cases of minor interest have also been set for trial.
 Mountain Echo Newspaper, August 1888
State vs.
Jesse Blankenship, rape; continued by defendant.

Doc Blankenship, who is confined in jail, on charge of rape, on last Sunday met with a painful accident.  He put one chain on top of another for the purpose of reaching the hole in the ceiling of the cell left for a stove pipe, in order to talk to his guard, who was in the upper room, when his foot slipped and he fell to the floor.  His right arm was knocked out of place by the fall, and the chair post struck him in the side, causing him much pain.  Dr. Bryan was called and waited on the prisoner.
Mountain Echo Newspaper, August 1888

Doc Blankenship, one of the occupants of our jail, has been making desperate efforts for liberty, and on one or two occasions came near being successful.  On last Friday night he freed himself from his chains, which were locked on his ankles, and opened the inside door of the cell.  After getting to the outside door, he cut a hole through the thick oak door facing with a pocket knife, but before cutting the hole large enough to admit his hand going through it, his knife broke.  He was working to reach the
lock on the outside, which he doubtless would have unlocked with ease, since it appears that he was well provided with wooden keys which he had made and which worked admirably well.  On Sunday, Jailer Lefevers found
Blankenship between the inside and outside doors and demanded him to turn over his key which he had reason to believe he had in his possession.  He denied having any key, but when Mr.
Lefevers threatened to have him stripped and searched, he gave up a wooden key which he had concealed in his clothing.  Later in the evening, while
Blankenship was entertaining a crowd of boys around the jail by removing his chains, Mr. Lefevers came along and took from him three other keys.  These keys are made of hickory and unlock the locks as well as the keys in the jailer's possession.  Blankenship made the keys himself having been furnished with a pocket knife by a little boy named Tom Watkins, whom
he promised to pay $2 when he gained his liberty, if the boy would get him a knife and a corset stay.  The boy complied with the request and
Blankenship came very near making his escape.  It is believed he has a key for the large lock on the outside door, but if he has, the most diligent search has been fruitless.  A guard is now kept at the jail at night, and the escape of the prisoner is not at all probable.  The jail is perfectly safe with the exception of the doors, which should be made secure without further delay.

Blankinship, Jesse

GUILTY OF RAPE: So Says the Jury in the BLANKINSHIP Case.

The case that has excited more interest this term of Circuit Court than any other, is that of the State against Jesse Blankinship, charged with Rape.  The trial was begun
last Friday, but a jury could not be impaneled until Saturday morning.  The trial lasted till Monday evening, the State being ably represented by prosecuting attorney, DeRoos Bailey, and the defendant being equally as ably represented by Mr. Fisk and Judge Keener.  The arguments on both sides lasted nearly the whole of the day on Monday. The jury returned about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and did not reach a verdict until nearly sunrise Tuesday morning, when it reached a verdict of guilty.  If this verdict is sustained by the courts, the punishment will be death.  The prisoner seems to care but little about the verdict when taken back to the jail.  After hearing the verdict he said "By G-d, I wish they would come on with their rope." The people are divided in opinion concerning the verdict.

Following is a list of the jurors who tried the case:  J. G. Estes, Wm. Caylor, J. S. Owens, W. H. Trueblood, James Lawson, Geo. W. Nelson, Eli Nipps, John B. Milum, J. W. Casper, J. E. Taber, John Stacy, Frank Estes.
