       "Harlan Bartlett of this city, had the misfortune to be called for jury service in the Alton City court for next week at which time all preparations have been made for his marriage to Miss Gladys Hotz. Had he been called upon to serve he would probably have missed out on a honeymoon.
       "Judge Yager, of Alton thought that wedding plans came before the duties to the state and let him off. The wedding plans will now be carried out. He told the judge the ceremony will occur next Thursday."
    • "IS OCTOBER BRIDE

Hotz of 516 North Kansas street when their daughter Miss Gladys, became the bride of Harlan Bartlett. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. A. O’Reilly pastor of the St. Mary’s Catholic church.
       "The color scheme of yellow and white was carried out in detail. The home was tastefully decorated with ferns, palms and yellow chrysanthemums and the walls were entirely covered with Southern Smilax.
       "Preceding the ceremony musical selections were render by Miss Nelle Dee, piano, Miss Vera Henry, violin and H. L. Porter cello. Miss Leila Sheppard sang two beautiful vocal selections “At Dawning” and “I Love You Truly.”
       "At the first strains of the wedding march, the bridal party entered the parlor. The bridesmaid, Miss Alouise Hotz, came first. She presented a very attractive appearance in a gown of yellow taffeta, and carried a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums.
       "After the bridesmaid had entered the parlor, the bride followed on the arm of her father. She was most charmingly attired in a gown of chantilly lace over georgette and carried a shower bouquet of white bridal rose. She wore a full length veil caught in place by orange blossoms. The groom and his best man, Arthur Werner, of Chicago entered by another door and the couple met before a bank of flowers and ferns where the ceremony took place.
       "Following the ceremony a delicious three course luncheon was served to about sixty guests, which included only immediate members of the family and intimate friends. The table for the bridal party was decorated with Smilax and a huge bouquet of sunburst rose buds. An immense wedding cake, beautifully decorated, occupied a prominent place. At the conclusion of the luncheon the cake was cut by the bride.
       "A reception followed at which time the couple received congratulations. They departed last evening by motor for the east where they will visit for several weeks. On their return here, they will be at home to friends, in their residence on Halleck avenue which has been fitted up.
       "On their departure the couple were liberally showered with rice. The bride’s going away costume consisted of a suit of black material trimmed with caracul. She wore a hat and gloves to match. Just before her departure the bride tossed her bouq1uet which was caught by Miss Christine Ballweg.
       "Mrs. Bartlett is the second daughter of Former Mayor and Mrs. H. P. Hotz. She is a young lady of unusual charm and attractiveness and has a large coterie of friends in this vicinity. She graduated from the Edwardsville High School in 1918 and later accepted a position in her father’s office where she has been employed until recently.
       "Mr. Bartlett is the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Bartlett of this city. He is a promising young business man and is identified with his father in the real estate and insurance business.

       "Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Bartlett and their little baby had a close call from being injured last night about 6 o’clock in a crash with a McKi---y [word is unclear] car at Hillsboro avenue and Commercial street at one of the bad curves in Edwardsville. They were shaken up but not hurt.
       "The left side of the Bartlett coupe was caved in and today it appears that an entirely new body will be needed.
       "The Bartletts were on their way home at the time. Reaching the curve it was necessary to get the two left wheels over the right rail. The tracks were so slippery that Mr. Bartlett was unable to drive out of the tracks after getting around the curve. The left front wheel slid along for about ten feet when the driver stopped the car.
       "The street car was only a short distance away and was running slow as it approached the curve. The motorman failed to stop, hit the automobile and threw it to the curve. The street car stopped within three or four feet after the crash.
       "The automobile was so badly damaged that it could not proceed under its own power and was towed to a garage."
    • "Baby Boy Arrives.
       "Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Bartlett are announcing the arrival of a baby boy at their home on Thursday [10 Mar 1927]."
    • "H. E. BARTLETT HURT
       "Harlan E. Bartlett, Edwardsville insurance and real estate man, suffered fracture of two ribs and other injuries about noon today when his automobile was forced from the road and collided with a heavy pole one mile east of Mitchell on route 4. Mr. Bartlett started to pass a machine going in the same direction and the latter suddenly turned to the left, toward a driveway. Mr. Bartlett pulled his car off the road to avoid a collision and hit the pole. Other occupants of the machines were not seriously injured. Mr. Bartlett was taken to his home here."9,10,11,12,13

       "Harlan Bartlett of this city, had the misfortune to be called for jury service in the Alton City court for next week at which time all preparations have been made for his marriage to Miss Gladys Hotz. Had he been called upon to serve he would probably have missed out on a honeymoon.
       "Judge Yager, of Alton thought that wedding plans came before the duties to the state and let him off. The wedding plans will now be carried out. He told the judge the ceremony will occur next Thursday."
    • "IS OCTOBER BRIDE
       "MISS GLADYS HOTZ MARRIED TO HARLAN BARTLETT.
       "Ceremony Performed Last Evening at Bride’s Home.
       "One of the most beautiful home weddings this season took place last evening at 5:30 o’clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Hotz of 516 North Kansas street when their daughter Miss Gladys, became the bride of Harlan Bartlett. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. A. O’Reilly pastor of the St. Mary’s Catholic church.
       "The color scheme of yellow and white was carried out in detail. The home was tastefully decorated with ferns, palms and yellow chrysanthemums and the walls were entirely covered with Southern Smilax.
       "Preceding the ceremony musical selections were render by Miss Nelle Dee, piano, Miss Vera Henry, violin and H. L. Porter cello. Miss Leila Sheppard sang two beautiful vocal selections “At Dawning” and “I Love You Truly.”
       "At the first strains of the wedding march, the bridal party entered the parlor. The bridesmaid, Miss Alouise Hotz, came first. She presented a very attractive appearance in a gown of yellow taffeta, and carried a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums.
       "After the bridesmaid had entered the parlor, the bride followed on the arm of her father. She was most charmingly attired in a gown of chantilly lace over georgette and carried a shower bouquet of white bridal rose. She wore a full length veil caught in place by orange blossoms. The groom and his best man, Arthur Werner, of Chicago entered by another door and the couple met before a bank of flowers and ferns where the ceremony took place.
       "Following the ceremony a delicious three course luncheon was served to about sixty guests, which included only immediate members of the family and intimate friends. The table for the bridal party was decorated with Smilax and a huge bouquet of sunburst rose buds. An immense wedding cake, beautifully decorated, occupied a prominent place. At the conclusion of the luncheon the cake was cut by the bride.
       "A reception followed at which time the couple received congratulations. They departed last evening by motor for the east where they will visit for several weeks. On their return here, they will be at home to friends, in their residence on Halleck avenue which has been fitted up.
       "On their departure the couple were liberally showered with rice. The bride’s going away costume consisted of a suit of black material trimmed with caracul. She wore a hat and gloves to match. Just before her departure the bride tossed her bouq1uet which was caught by Miss Christine Ballweg.
       "Mrs. Bartlett is the second daughter of Former Mayor and Mrs. H. P. Hotz. She is a young lady of unusual charm and attractiveness and has a large coterie of friends in this vicinity. She graduated from the Edwardsville High School in 1918 and later accepted a position in her father’s office where she has been employed until recently.
       "Mr. Bartlett is the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Bartlett of this city. He is a promising young business man and is identified with his father in the real estate and insurance business.
       "The out of town guests were: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Zelle, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Zelle, Mrs. H. H. Gibson, Mr. Woesten Zelle, Dr. and Mrs. H. Shio, Miss Alice Sheehan and M. E. Dames of St. Louis, Mr. and Mrs. Porter Corrington of Alton, Miss Louise Degendeldt of Prairie Du Roche, Mrs. H. M. Tartt of Kansas City, and Arthur Werner of Chicago.

    • "THREE ESCAPE INJURY IN CRASH ON SLIPPERY RAILS
       "Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Bartlett and their little baby had a close call from being injured last night about 6 o’clock in a crash with a McKi---y [word is unclear] car at Hillsboro avenue and Commercial street at one of the bad curves in Edwardsville. They were shaken up but not hurt.
       "The left side of the Bartlett coupe was caved in and today it appears that an entirely new body will be needed.
       "The Bartletts were on their way home at the time. Reaching the curve it was necessary to get the two left wheels over the right rail. The tracks were so slippery that Mr. Bartlett was unable to drive out of the tracks after getting around the curve. The left front wheel slid along for about ten feet when the driver stopped the car.
       "The street car was only a short distance away and was running slow as it approached the curve. The motorman failed to stop, hit the automobile and threw it to the curve. The street car stopped within three or four feet after the crash.
       "The automobile was so badly damaged that it could not proceed under its own power and was towed to a garage."
    • "Baby Boy Arrives.
       "Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Bartlett are announcing the arrival of a baby boy at their home on Thursday [10 Mar 1927]."
    • "H. E. BARTLETT HURT
       "Harlan E. Bartlett, Edwardsville insurance and real estate man, suffered fracture of two ribs and other injuries about noon today when his automobile was forced from the road and collided with a heavy pole one mile east of Mitchell on route 4. Mr. Bartlett started to pass a machine going in the same direction and the latter suddenly turned to the left, toward a driveway. Mr. Bartlett pulled his car off the road to avoid a collision and hit the pole. Other occupants of the machines were not seriously injured. Mr. Bartlett was taken to his home here."4,5,6,7,8

Henry P. Hotz

M, ID# 22010, b. 1 August 1867, d. 23 December 1931

516 N. Kansas St., Edwardsville, Ill. ca. 2018, home of Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Hotz in 1922.
  • Obituary*: "HY. P. HOTZ DIES EARLY TODAY AT JACKSONVILLE, FLA.
       "End Due to Heart Trouble During Annual Visit With Daughters, Made at Southern Resort
       "FUNERAL SERVICES WILL BE HELD HERE
       "Served as Mayor for Fourteen Years and Revised Many Municipal Conditions in His Administrations.
       "Henry P. Hotz, president of Hotz Lumber Co., for years and mayor of Edwardsville for fourteen years during early administrations when the municipal affairs were completely revised, died at Riverside Hospital at Jacksonville, Fla., at 5 o’clock this morning. Word of the death was received in a telegram to his son, Wilfred H. Hotz. Death was due to heart trouble with which he had suffered for two years.
       "His wife, Mrs. Otillia Hotz, died here on August 4 after a stroke. Death of Mrs. Hotz caused a relapse in her husband’s condition but he had recovered sufficiently during November to make his customary trip to Florida to spend the winter.
       "Two years ago specialists at Mayo Brothers Hospital at Rochester, Minn., diagnosed his ailment as due to goiter. He underwent an operation and showed some improvements at intervals since that time.
       "The body is being brought back to Edwardsville by two daughters who accompanied him south. The party is expected in Edwardsville sometime Christmas Day. Services will be held at St. Mary’s Catholic Church probably Saturday morning at 9 o’clock. Burial will be at St. Mary’s Cemetery.
       "Mr. Hotz was born at Grantfork on August 1, 1867 and was in his 65th year. His parents were Mr. and Mrs. George Hotz. His father was elected Sheriff of Madison County in November, 1882 and the official office caused the family to locate in Edwardsville on Thanksgiving Day that year. Sheriff Hotz and his brother, County Clerk Joseph Hotz, drove to Edwardsville to make plans to take over the office.
       "During 1883 George Hotz became interested in the lumber firm of Hotz & Knoebel. Henry P. Hotz was 18 years old when he was placed in charge of the lumber yard, a business which he headed for nearly 50 years.
       "On February 4, 1891 Mr. Hotz was married to Miss Otillia Degenfelder. Five children were born to the union, one preceding the parents in death. Those who survive are Mrs. Coleta Werner, Mrs. H. E. Bartlett, Miss Alouise Hotz and Wilfred H. Hotz, all of Edwardsville.
       "Mr. Hotz was a man who probably traveled more extensively than any other resident of Edwardsville. He had visited every state in the United States excepting Maine. He made two trips to Europe visiting many places of interest in his extended visits. Numerous trips through the south in visits to Florida were made in the past ten years.
       "His first election as Mayor occurred in April 1903 and he served continuously for five terms until 1913. Then he was out of office for four years. Finally in 1917 friends prevailed upon him to run again and he served four years.
       "Shortly after his election he launched a program of city changes that met with early opposition but later received general approval. Old . . . [the remainder of the obituary is difficult to read because of a poor image on the microfilm]."7
  • Note*: He was mayor of Edwardsville, Illinois for fourteen years and operated a lumber yard there for nearly fifty years, beginning when he was eighteen years old.1
