Gehuwd op 22-jarige leeftijd op 02-01-1879 te Cook County, Illinois, USA met Freerk Eisses WIERSEMA, 28 jaar oud, Bankier, stichter, samen met John H. Nichols, van de Wiersema Bank, gevestigd 11108 S. Michigan Av. te Chicago, USA. Dealer in dry goods, geboren op 31-01-1850 te Uithuizen, Groningen, Netherlands, overleden op 12-06-1905 te Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA op 55-jarige leeftijd, begraven te Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA, "Frederick Wiersema , one of the most prominent citizens of Roseland, was born in Uithuizen, in the Province of Groningen, Holland, January 31, 1850, and is a son of Eisee and Jantje (Schoonoort) Wiersema. Eisee Wiersema was a gardener in his native land, and was the son of Frederick Wiersema, a farmer, who spent the last twenty years of his life in retirement, and died when seventy-two years old. His ancestors for a number of generations were thrifty Mennonites. Eisee Wiersema came to America in 1884, and is now living in Sioux City, Iowa, having attained the age of eighty years. His wife, who was the daughter of a sailor, died when sixty-three years old.

Frederick Wiersema attended the public schools of his native town, and most of his boyhood, was spent in his father's garden. On attaining his majority, he entered a dry-goods store and spent two years as a clerk. At the end of that period, he determined to seek his fortune in the free land across the Atlantic Ocean. He arrived in Chicago in May 1873, and very soon became a clerk in the store of G. Van der Syde at Roseland, where he remained until February, 1878. In company with L. Van der Syde, he then bought out the establishment and their partnership continued until 1890, when Mr. Wiersema sold out to his partner.

In June, 1891, he established the Roseland Bank, in connection with Mr. J.H. Nichols, and in May 1893, he bought the interest of the latter. Since that time Mr. Wiersema has been sole proprietor, and is doing a very successful banking and mortgage business.

He was married January 2, 1879, to Miss Elizabeth Glassman, daughter of John Adams Glassman, of South Bend, Indiana, where Mrs. Wiersema was born. Her mother, Jane (DeYoung) Glassman, died when Mrs. Wiersema was in her infancy, and most of the latter's childhood spent with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry DeYoung, at South Holland, Illinois. She is the mother of nine children, namely: Asa, Jennie, Henry, Bessie, Nicholas, Frederick, Calvin, Florence and John Harold. The eldest son is a clerk in father's bank. The family is identified with Bethany Reformed Church of Roseland, in the organization of which in 1890, Mr. Wiersema took a leading part, and he has continued to be an Elder of the society ever since. He is independent in political association, and his only official service was in the capacity of Trustee of the village of West Roseland, which he held one year. His moral and business obligations are alike discharged in a thorough and conscientious manner, which fully entitles him to the regard in which he is held by his fellow citizens."

MONEY BROKERS UNDER ARREST

Sequel to the Collapse of the Illinois National Bank.
A Concern That Was Squeezed by a Calumet E'ectric Bond Deal.
The Public Scare Practically Over and Confidence Sterns to Hava B- en Restored.

CHICAGO, 111., Dec 23.- Charges and counter charges in connection with the management of the National Bank of Illinois were made to-day and engrossed the attention of the financial community to the exclusion of the day's events surrounding the bis; National bank collapse.

The arrest of Bankers Dreyer and Berber, the discharge of the receiver of the Roseland Bank and the continuation of the savings depositors' run on the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank and the Hibernian Banking Association were the principal developments. The public scare is practically over and a complete restoration of confidence seems to have been effected.

By arrangement of the Police Department counsel for the defendants and Justice of the Peace W. T. Hall, the accused private bankers, Kdward S. Dryer and Robert Berger, entered Justice Hall's courtroom at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

Detective Fay, who held the warrants which F. E. Kennedy, a saloon-keeper and depositor at Dreyer & Co.'s Bank, had sworn to, announced that the men were under arrest. Tne char c in each case is that the bankers received a deposit of $153 at the close of business last Saturday, knowing at the time that they were insolvent. The defendants were accompanied by Adolf Kraua, their lawyer, and Charles H. Wack^r of the Wacker G Birk Brew-In.-Company. The latter signed the bond of the banters in the sum of $500 eaoh for their appearance in Justice Hall's court January 2.

Kennedy says he is acting for himself only, but his action i 3 regarded as premature and ill advised by those who believe the Dreyer & Co. failure could not be foreseen. In this connection Levy Mayer, counsel for the National Bank of Illinois and Dreyer & Berger, said to a reporter of the United Associated Presses this afternoon :

"Dreyer & Co. cleared through the National Bank of Illinois. At the close of business Saturday afternoon there was not the slightest doubt entertained by the firm or even the shadow of a suggestion that they would not go on as usual Monday morning. Without a clearance bank they could not possibly open up. The end of the National Hank of Illinois was as sudden as it was amazing. As one of its counsel I had not the slightest intimation that there was any suspicion against ttie bank until late Saturday night. Dreyer <fc Co. did not know until Saturday that their clearing bank was in dancer. Tney then took steps which resulted in the receivership. The receiver has ail their property. The great agitation at present existing hai made some men precipitate and hasty in their criticism of their action and advice. When tne excitment has subsided and the examiner has made a through investigation into the estate, and then only, will people be in a position to calmly pass judgment.

"The causes for the National Bank of Illinois' failure and its condition will no doubt in due time be placed be'ore the public. These Calumet Electric bonds, which all of a sudden have dwindled into ?o insignificant an asset, have for some years been coveted by some outsiders, and the interest on the bonds has always been promptly met."

The shortest bank receivership on record, forty-eight hours, was that of John H. Nichols, who was appointed receiver Monday afternoon for Frederick Wiersema, proprietor of the Roseland Savings Bank of Roseland, which cleared through the National Bank of Illinois. The receiver appeared before Judge Hanecy this afternoon and reported that there were assets of $83,000 in cash and real estate and liabilities of $51,600. Sufficient money had been raise.l to carry on the business and the Judga discharged the receiver. The bank will op.-n its doors tomorrow morn ins-

The runs on the Illinois Trust and Savings and Hibernia banks continued today in lesser degree, and when the usual closing hour arrived there was not enough of a line at either bank to dignify the scare as a run. No vestige of excitement is expected after Christmas day. The officers of the Illinois Trust were so confident that the run on their bank was nt an end that they decided to remove all restrictions and began pa3 r ing in full to alt depositors in line.

At the Hibernia Bank the notice was adhered to.

A staff of accountants in charge of an expert was put to worß during the day at the Dreyer & Co. and Wasmansdorff & Heinemann banks, and next week areport is expected which will give an intelligent idea of tne condition of both houses.

Vice - President Hammond, who is charged wilh pulling the wool over the eyes of the directors of the defunct National Bank, would not talk for publication when seen to-day at his Evanston home, but a friend, speaking for him. said:

"W.A. Hammond is to be made the scapegoat for the failure of the bank. He is a broken man to-day, but is not any more to blame for the amount of money loaned on Calumet Electric security than are the members of the finance committee of the bank and its directors. It was necessary for the purpose of n man connected witb the South Chicago City Railway and an officer of one of the biggest banks in Chicago to depreciate the Calumet road stock, and to this end these two men accomplished the wreck of the National Bank of Illinois. Members of the finance committee and directors of the failed bank knew the lull amount of the Calumet ioan and hoped to make individual fortunes on the success of the venture. They were given stock of the road and the purpose of the deal was to seli the property and besides paying the bank loan make a neat sum for the directors. There has been a sharp contest between the General Electric and South Chicago City Railway companies to get control of the Calumet bonds. The latter road will be worth $5,000,000 in five years and the outsiders who ruined the bank know it, but they wanted to buy the bonds cheap." W. R. Page, a director of the bank, said: "I never saw on the book of applicants for loans kept at the bank for that purpose the name of the Calumet E lectric Railway Company. The statement published regarding Mr. Hammond's connection with these queer transactions are all true. The auditing committee of the directory reiied largely on the representations made by President Schneider and Mr. Hammond and were deceived." (Bron: The San Francisco Call dd. 24-12-1896).

Hendrik DeJong and his wife Geertje(DeVries)DeJong along with their 12 children left their home in Noordeloos, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands and boarded a ship called "Yssel" from Rotterdam on March 21,1847 and arrived in America April 27,1847. After first living in Graafschap, Michigan for about two months Hendrik and his family decided to leave that place because the conditions there were not to their liking and go to Wisconsin. Hendrik and family walked south along the shore of Lake Michigan until they stopped at the mouth of the Calumet River at the south end of Lake Michigan. Looking to see where this lead to, they followed the river inland until they came to the area which is now called South Holland, Illinois, in the summer of 1847. Finding this terrain to be very similar to what they knew in Holland, this is where Hendrik DeJong and his family decided to stay. Nobody had settled this place at that point, so Hendrik DeJong became the first settler of the town of what was later to become South Holland, Illinois. The families of Cornelius Schaay and Cornelius Arentze, who had arrived in America on the same day as the DeJong family, also settled in South Holland in 1847, along with the families of Antje(The Widow)Paarlberg, Klaas Pool, Jan Killewinger, and Antonie Rombout. Many Dutch families followed in the years to follow. Zoon van Arie de JONG (zie 12) en Maria BRUT (zie 13).
