Marie Maier nee Yoho

Source: The Monroe County Gazette, Woodsfield, Ohio; 7 April 1892

BRUTAL MURDER

A former Monroe County girl the victim of a murderous husband.

Two or three years ago Marie Yoho, a daughter of William Yoho, formerly of Woodsfield, went to Wheeling, W.Va., to work. While there she made the acquaintance of a baker named William Maier, who pretended, after a short acquaintance to be very much in love with her. She did not fancy Maier, however, and avoided his company as much as possible. He finally threatened to take her life if she did not become his wife. After these threats and Maier's ardent pretensions of love, Miss Yoho finally consented to become his wife, and they were married on the 20th day of October, 1891.

After they were married it is said they often quarreled, and were apparently very disagreeable in the company of each other. Last Sunday morning, after a serious quarrel, Mrs. Maier left her home and went to her sister in another part of the city. The two made up, however, and Mrs. Maier returned home last Monday, taking with her a little sister.

About 2 o'clock Tuesday morning the heartless husband arrayed himself in the best clothes, procured a revolver and fired four balls at his wife, all of them taking effect. He then fled and has not been captured.

No one was present to tell the story save the twelve-year-old sister of Mrs. Maier. She was wounded in the hand by one of the balls, and was so badly scared she could tell but very little of what occurred.

Maier had a very bad reputation before the crime was committed; and had been convicted of several smaller crimes. Those who knew Mrs. Maier before she went to Wheeling say she was a kind-hearted, inoffensive girl.

Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Yoho, have been residing at Triadelphia for a short time, having removed from Woodsfield to that point.

 

William Maier

Source: Monroe County Gazette, Woodsfield Ohio; 24 November 1892

William Maier, who murdered his young wife last April, was hung in the Wheeling jail yard last Friday at 11:10 a.m. The platform of the scaffold was seven feet square and 6 1/2 feet from the ground, the approach to the same being gained by a stairway of ten steps. The overhead beam, upon which one end of the rope was fastened was 8 1/2 feet above the platform. The trap-door in the center of the platform was three feet square being composed of two doors divided in halves, which fell downward upon pulling of the spring. The doors were held in place by the slightest catch, and but a slight pull of the string was necessary to open the hole. The fall was about 3 1/ feet.

Maier died bravely. He spent the most of his last night conversing with Rev. Father McElligott, his spiritual adviser, and to him told the details of his escape and return after the murder, which he had before kept to himself. Maier said he had returned in order to kill himself on his wife's grave. He received extreme unction and at 10:30 the death warrant was read to him. He showed great emotion on hearing it, but quickly recovered himself. Shortly after 11 o'clock the march to the scaffold began, Maier being accompanied by this trusted spiritual adviser. He ascended the scaffold unassisted, but was accompanied by the priest and Sheriff. His last words were an expression of hope to meet his dead wife in Heaven. Then came the tragic end of all.

The body hung for half an hour and was taken down and was examined by Drs. Wilson and Hupp, Jr., who pronounced him dead. A Mr. Robinson of Pittsburgh, adjusted the noose. The crowd was limited. The dead man left a letter that was not to be opened until after his execution and in it he admits the crime of which he suffered the death penalty.

 

The Crime

The crime of Wm. Maier was very brutal. Early in the morning of April 5th, 1892, Maier, who was a German baker, shot his young wife to death in their home at Wheeling and then fled. Mrs. Maier's maiden name was Miss Hannah Yoho and she was formerly resident of near Woodsfield. They had been married only six months. Maier was captured near his wife's grave several days after the crime had been committed, and was put on trial a week afterward. At the trial the defense set up to make a plea of insanity, but failed to make any sort of case for the prisoner. The only witness to the awful deed was a little girl about 12 years old, a sister of the murdered woman, who lived with the Maiers.

Her story was that Maier had asked his wife to kiss him before going to work and on her refusal, he pulled his pistol and shot her four times. Maier claimed he knew nothing of the deed, and did not remember any of the circumstances. He gave no clear idea of his whereabouts after the murder. The only reason he gave for murder was that his wife had threatened to leave him. After a trial of three days he was found guilty of murder in the first degree. A motion for a new trial was made, but overruled, and he was sentenced to be hanged Aug. 5. A stay of proceedings was granted, and the case appealed to the Supreme Court of Appeals. A new trial was refused and he was sentenced to die Nov. 18. A final effort to secure a commutation of sentence from the Governor was made without success.

Examiner Latta Hurt

On his way from Miltonsburg to Woodsfield last Friday to assist in holding the monthly school examination, Prof. T. L. Latta, vice president of the board of school examiners, met with a painful accident. The horse that he was riding fell in such a manner as to throw Mr. Latta on the frozen ground with such violence that several ugly gashes were cut in his face and he was otherwise badly bruised. Several stitches were required to close some of the cuts; but the professor demonstrated some grit in attending to his duties as examiner Saturday.
