| Anecdote | 15 October 1897 | On 15 October 1897 Letter from Ambrose L. Ogle (at that time bookkeeper for W.T. & F. B. Weaver, 1208. 32nd St., Washington, D. C. ). Date Oct 15, 1897 To: Dr. S S. Todd, Kansas City, ~Mo.
Father - 83 on 24th of August past, slightly bent, tho by no means feeble and infirm. He is about 5' 11", weight has ranged from 195 to 210 lbs, being at present about 200 lbs, built so neatly you would not take him to be a large man, at all. He can at present raise an ordinary bucket of water at arm's length with the utmost ease tho he has performed no manual labor for nearly 20 years; he can out-walk me any day in the week, and thinks nothing of walking two or three miles two or three times a week. When young he had extraordinary strength and endurance; and he and Uncle John Clements thought nothing of walking 50 to 100 miles to some work, then working from sun-up to dark for a week or two, and then. walking back, carrying an average luggage of 300 lbs. During the past decade he has worn a flowing beard, he much resembles the poet, Longfellow, His integrity is firm and uncompromising, while his goodness of heart is unlimited. He loved about the same books as he father did, particularly "Dodd's Beauties of Shakespeare Edition of l8l3",~ "Plutarch's Lives" and Alexander Pope, the first two of which I have. His voice is strong and musical and it has always been a pleasure to me to hear him quote a very few select passages from Shakespeare and Pope, his favorite of all being:.
"Teach me to feel another's woe, To hide the fault I see;The mercy I to others show That mercy show to mee"
I knew this verse by heart at the age of 10 and I believe each of my brothers and sisters likewise. Another was:
"A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or touch not, the pierian spring; For shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, And drink largely sobers us again."
His education was good and solid, but curtained by the altered circumstances of his father; all his education was secured at Georgetown University, he informs me at much expense in those days. While his vocabulary is comparatively limited, his diction is accurate and elegant and the accompanying inflexions of voice just and proper; altogether he is a most remarkable and charming old gentleman without dotage or puerility; whose education shows that it was started in the highest channels but ceased to grow some- where between the bud and the bloom. His intellect is clear and his reasoning almost infallible. His ideas on Political Economy are identical with those of the masters of that science, tho he knows nothing of Adam Smith, etc. He never tires of praising George Wash1ngton, Thomas Jefferson, Ben. Franklin, Webster, Calhoun and Clay. Up to the beginning of the last decade he kept his face clean shaven and his hair rolled under at the ends, in the style of the gentlemen of the Old-School, and that time he resembled Washington. His hair, like all the Ogles I know, was thick and of the color known as chestnut brown. Mother while 16 years his junior is by no means as hale as he, she having suffered for many years from female troubles. During the past 3 years she has at times been very feeble; and during the past year I have at several times thougt that the and was near. At present she is able to be about, but enervated and super-annuated.
I will now give you a description of my father's 3 sons:Albert my eldest brother, is 5' 10", weighs about 180 lbs and is a fine specimen of manhood; John, my next eldest brother is 5'll* and at present weighs 210 lbs. Of their educations I can only say that they consist of common school branches, they never having evinced any desire for educational advancement, tho their minds are strong and brilliant, with exceeding inherent reasoning powers. They are industrious. John is a thoro business-man and Albert is a master mechanic John is fond of music and plays the violin naturally (by air).
For obvious reasons I cannot say much of myself. I am 6' my average weight is 162 to 165 lbs. I'm just 30 yrs of age. If you are a believer in Atavism, you would find in me a wonderfully-striking, and I believe to you, a very interesting reproduction of the natural characteristics of your grandfather, Hiram, but the blush of egoism and vanity, would forbid me to write the parallel. I might add in general that all Ogles look alike; and I am instantly recognized as an Ogle wherever I go by any one who has ever known an Ogle.
I might add that all Ogles have large heads; father and I wear a 7 1/4 hat, and I believe my two brothers wear the same size.---A.L.0. P.S. I forgot to state a fact in relation to father that might prove interesting to you. He has always bathed in the coldest water he could obtain thruout his entire life and does so at the present time. I have seen him day after day thru- out the Winter break the ice upon the rain-barrel and take a basin of water there from and apply it freely to his head for 3 to 5 minutes. He informs me that this is a custom handed down from his grandfather Benj. (Its interesting that Margaret Knopp, my grandmother told me this tale when I was very young and I never forgot it. she said he had beautiful rosy skin as a result.- MVW.) |
| CENSUS1900* | 1900 | He appeared on the census in 1900 at Washington, D.C; He lives with his daughter and her husband and their three daughters one of whom is grandmother(Margaret Mae Knopp Vollmer) to MVW.5 |
| Employment* | 1900 | He was employed in 1900 at House Painter, Georgetown, Washington, D.C.. |
| Anecdote* | 1938 | In 1938 QUOTE FROM LETTER WRITTEN BY REZIN'S DAUGHTER ELIZABETH
A letter from his daughter Elizabeth written to her nephew, Herman Vollmer says: My dear little Herman, As you are the only one that has asked me about the Ogle's, I am honoring you with the first letter bearing the Ogle coat of arms, which was given to me by one of my friends as a present for my birthday. It is my fond hope that one day I will be able to pass on to you the facts that would give me the right to join the DAR. (Ironically, it was her daughter Mary who gave the "facts" to Herman's daughter, Margaret) The seal is similar to the one "pap" (Horatio) used on the ceiling (sic) wax of his bitters and I remember well of hearing him say how that seal was engraved on his Mother's silver and how she broke it up in pieces and sold it to make ends meet after his father died. This little gift of paper brings all these old memories back to me and I feel sure you will admire the seal as I do. Your loving Aunt Lizzie. |
| Anecdote | 1989 | In 1989 REMEMBRANCES OF MARY DURKIN CAREY
"My grandfather was precise in correspondence, underlining his signature with a scroll, and old English custom. Also, he sealed the envelopes with sealing wax impressed with the family crest carved on his ring. in even the coldest weather he bathed his face with a very cold water which he said was healthful. He believed no education was complete without the study of Latin and Greek. He walked from his home in Georgetown to work at the Navy Yard in southeast Washington when the horse cars were out of service due to high snow. In the winter, straw was used as a covering on the floors of horse cars in winter to keep the passengers' feet warm.
As late as 1918 gas was used for lighting homes and street lamps All men's suits were made by women tailoresses. (His wife was such a tailoress). Cigars were made by hand. Cigar making was a profitable trade in private homes in the 1800's.2 |
