| 53 | Delaware County Daily Times, 5 Jun 1916: Samuel Customer Killed by Train at Folcroft Son of the Late Bethel M. Custer, of Glenolden Meets a Violent Death On the Railroad Struck by a south-bound express train, as he was crossing the tracks of the Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington railroad at Folcroft, in Darby Township, Saturday midnight, Samuel Custer, fifty years old, of Glenolden, member of a well known family in that section of the county, and son of the late Bethel Custer, was literally ground to pieces under the wheels of a train. The tragedy was not discovered until ten minutes later when the crew of an accommodation train following in the wake of the express, noticed portions of the dismembered body scattered along the track. The legs were picked up some distance from where the torso and head were found. Custer had been visiting some friends in Folcroft and was on his way to his home in Glenolden when the fatality occurred. It is believed that he climbed a fence in front of the Folcroft station for the purpose of taking a short cut home and was in front of the oncoming train before he had time to save himself. The crew of the express did not know that a man had been hurled into eternity by their train. The body was horribly mangled, portions of the remains being scattered along the track a distance of fully one hundred years from where the engine struck Custer. An employee of the Pennsylvania Railroad notified Coroner Charles H. Drewes, of Darby, who took charge of the remains. By the light of lanterns, the Coroner and his assistants managed to recover what was left of the body and remove it to the morgue. Custer is survived by a widow and two children, Samuel and Mabel. He was well known in Darby and vicinity, where he resided practically all his life and was well liked by all who knew him. His death comes as a great shock to his friends. The railroad accident is the third to occur is that section of the county in a little over two days. Two of them resulted fatally, the first being the case of eleven-year-old Frederick Duprius, of Norwood, who was killed by a train at Holmes station on the B. & O. road last Thursday night. The other victim had a narrow escape from death under a train at Sharon Hill, Saturday. | Custer, Samuel C Sr. (I1787)

| 64 | Durham Herald-Sun, 27 Jan 2012: Mary Duke Biddle Trent Semans, a lifelong philanthropist and civic leader in North Carolina, died on January 25, 2012, in Durham. She was 91. Mrs. Semans devoted herself to education, children's services, health care and the arts, and her compassion for others helped shape and sustain significant programs and institutions across the Carolinas and the nation. She was born into a family of industrialists and philanthropists. Her grandfather, Benjamin Newton Duke, his brother, James B. Duke, and their father, Washington Duke, were involved in many business ventures, the most significant of which were the American Tobacco Company and Duke Power Company, now Duke Energy Corporation. Over the years, they were the chief benefactors of Trinity College in Durham, which later became Duke University. In 1924, James B. Duke established The Duke Endowment in Charlotte, one of the largest private foundations in the country and the largest foundation in the Southeast. Mrs. Semans carried on the family legacy through her own foundations and philanthropic work, serving on numerous boards as a trustee and advisor, and acting as a champion for all types of humanitarian causes. She was a Trustee of The Duke Endowment for 55 years, and served as its first female Chairman from 1982-2001. After 2001, she continued serving as Chair Emerita. Mrs. Semans also served as a Trustee of many educational institutions in the Carolinas, including Duke University, Davidson College, Shaw University, Louisburg College, Converse College and the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. She was instrumental in establishing the Duke University Museum of Art, which became the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, and the museum's Great Hall bears her name. Philanthropy, Mrs. Semans once said in a speech, is not about charity or noblesse oblige. "But the joy of giving. The good feeling of sharing. The giving that benefits the giver as well as the recipient." "We're all here for each other," she told a reporter. "I take very seriously this business of treating your neighbor as yourself." Mrs. Semans was born in New York City. Her parents were Mary Duke Biddle, the only daughter of Benjamin Duke, and Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle Jr., a General in the United States Army. Her mother was a noted philanthropist who carried on the family's support of Duke University and her father held several high-level government posts, including Ambassador to Exiled Countries during World War II and Ambassador to Spain. Apart from a childhood in New York City, Mrs. Semans lived most of her life in Durham. She attended the Hewitt School in New York and then enrolled in the Woman's College at Duke University at age 15. In 1938, she married Josiah Trent, a surgical intern who would become the chief of Duke Hospital's division of thoracic surgery. The couple developed a passion for rare books, including books about the history of medicine and many by and about Walt Whitman. Dr. Trent died of cancer after 10 years of marriage. As a young widow and mother of four girls, she ran for a seat on the Durham City Council and became the first woman elected in 1951. She served as mayor pro-tem from 1953-55. While in office, she advocated for civil rights, affordable housing, cultural enrichment opportunities, and humane medical care, and was named one of the city's "Mothers of the Year" in 1952. She married James H. Semans, a Duke University surgeon and urologist, in 1953. In their 52 years of marriage, they had three children. Mrs. Semans, along with her husband, took active roles in public service. In the 1960s, they helped lead the establishment of the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, the nation's first state-supported conservatory for the arts. Mrs. Semans served as a Trustee of the school for more than 20 years and continued as an honorary member of the board. Mrs. Semans also served on the board of the Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, established by her mother to support arts, educational and charitable initiatives in North Carolina and New York City. In 1971, the couple received the North Carolina Award, the state's highest civilian honor, for their contributions to the fine arts. "They personify the best leadership of their era," the citation read. The couple also received the National Brotherhood Award from the National Conference of Christians and Jews "for distinguished service in the field of human relations." Dr. Semans died in 2005 at age 94. Mrs. Semans was known for her keen mind, graciousness, genuine concern for others and boundless energy. Among her multiple affiliations, she served on the boards of the Executive Mansion Fine Arts Committee, which was charged with restoring and preserving the North Carolina Governor's residence; the North Carolina Museum of Art; the North Carolina Symphony; the North Carolina Center for World Languages and Cultures; the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University; and the National Humanities Center. She also served as chairman of the Governor's Study Committee on Vocational Rehabilitation and was a member of the National Citizens Advisory Commission on Vocational Rehabilitation, appointed by President Lyndon B. Johnson. Mrs. Semans also served as a member of the board of directors of First Union Corporation. In 1986, she received one of the first two University Medals for Distinguished Meritorious Service at Duke. Her honorary degrees came from Duke, Campbell University, Davidson College, Elon University, Furman University, N.C. Central University, North Carolina Wesleyan College, Pfeiffer University, Shaw University and UNC Chapel Hill. Mrs. Semans received many other honors and awards including, among others, the National Governors Association Distinguished Service Award in 1995 for her support of the arts; a Citation for Distinguished Public Service presented by North Carolina Citizens for Business and Industry; the Humanitarian Freedom Award presented by the Durham Chapter of Hadassah; the North Carolina Philanthropy Award; and the North Caroliniana Society Award. She received the Meritorious Service Award from the North Carolina Hospital Association in 2006 and in 2009 she was inducted into the North Carolina Women's Hall of Fame. Mrs. Semans is survived by seven children: Mary Trent Jones of Abingdon, Va.; Sarah Trent Harris of Charlotte; Dr. Rebecca Trent Kirkland of Houston, Texas; Barbara Trent Kimbrell of Sullivan's Island, S.C.; Jenny Semans Koortbojian of Durham; James Duke Biddle Trent Semans of Chapel Hill; and Beth Semans Hubbard of Los Angeles, Calif.; 16 grandchildren; and 29 great-grandchildren.

| 80 | From "Portraits of the Heads of State Departments and Portraits and Sketches of Members of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, 1893-94" by William Rodearmel, page 70: Jacob David Schick, Representative of the Fifth Philadelphia district, was born in that city thirty-six years ago. He has long been one of the most influential district leaders of the city, and his power as a Republican politician in the Fifth ward is steadily growing. His father, David Schick, was a piano manufacturer. The family were of German descent, and their thrift gained them a competency. The embryo legislator and sagacious counsellor in the city and ward organizations of his party was educated in the public schools of his native city, but, at the age of sixteen, went out to begin his successful business and political career. He became an ice dealer and, while the owner of the business of the Franklin Ice Company, also conducted a grocery store for about six years. For the last five years he has been in the real estate business. He was a constable of the Fifth ward for seven years, and resigned that position when elected to the House of Representatives in 1891. He was re-elected to the present House by 2,117 votes against only 803 cast for his Democratic opponent, Daniel McCanly. The nominating and other conventions in which Mr. Schick has figured prominently as a delegate would make a long list. He has been a member of the Republican State Committee for six years. Among the House Committees of which he is a member are those on Labor and Industry, Manufactures, Public Buildings and Geological Survey. His vigorous physical constitution is needed for his untiring application to work in the interest of his constituents. His invariable geniality and fidelity to friends account for his popularity. | Schick, Jacob David (I47)

Two Others Were Seriously In jured-They Were Preparing to Blast a Mass of Clay When a High Embankment Fell Upon Them Before They Could Escape. One man was killed and two others seriously injured while working in the clay pit that supplies material for the new plant of the Bradford Pressed Brick company at Lewis Run. The accident happened yesterday afternoon at 4:15 o'clock when a large quantity of shale and clay caved in upon the men while they were at work. The dead: Joseph Feodrico, the foreman of the pit. His left arm was crushed and his skull fractured. His body was bruised badly and he was injured internally. The injured: Vincenso Chiota, both arms injured, right hip and side bruised. Not serious. Sebastiano Pelini, left leg lacerated and bruised as well as slight bruises about his head. The cave-in occurred Just as Foreman Feodrico and the other two men were preparing to make a blast. The dynamite had not been. exploded, how ever. Suddenly the upper part of the embankment way and the foreman, who was nearest, caught the entire force of the falling earth. He was burbed nearly to his shoulders, The falling clay did not cover the other two men, but they received much of the force of the sliding earth. To Dig Him Out. Within a few minutes twelve men started into dig out Feodrico and it required fully 15 minutes to remove the tons of earth and rock that entombed him. He was taken to his home and Dr. Egbert of Custer City was called and Dr. Hogan of Bradford who was at the Lafayetteclub at Lewis Run, was sent for. The doctors were unable to do anything for the unfortunate man and he expired within an hour and a half after the accident. The other 3 two men were taken to their homes at Lewis Run.
