MARTIN RADER DIES
End Comes To Early Carthage Resident in St. Louis
The death, at 1:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon of Martin Rader at his home in
St. Louis is announced in a telegram of relatives in Carthage. Death must have
been sudden, as a letter recieved from him by his mother, Mrs. Emily Rader of
this city, only a few days ago, informed her that although all other members of
his family were in poor health, he himself was well.
Mart Rader was one of the old-time young men of Carthage who was known to all.
He came here shortly after the Civil War with his father, George Rader, from Ft.
Scott Kansas. George Rader was the first postmaster Carthage had after the war.
Mart helped in the office, carrying the mail on horseback from Sarcoxie before
the railroad was built into Carthage.
He continued the mail service until a few years ago, when he was retired on
reaching the age limit. At the time of his death he was connected with the
offices of the Mobile & Ohio Railway in St. Louis.
Before leaving Carthage Mr. Rader married Miss Emma Gerkey, sister of href="http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=71347130">Ed
Gerkey, county recorder. She survives him, together with two daughters,
Mrs. Allen Kleinschmidt and Mrs. Bartlett, both of St. Louis, and one son, Claud
Rader of Denver. Mrs.
Emily Rader of this city was his step-mother. Mrs. Fred
'Georgia' Osborn, also of Carthage, was a half-sister. His father died here
many years ago.
His brother John
M. Rader, who was a youth in Carthage in the 1870's, afterward studying and
practicing medicine in St. Louis, died suddenly in that city a few years ago.
His half-brother, Malcolm
Rader, was manager of the Western Union Telegraph office in Carthage 30 or
more years ago, and died about 10 years ago.
