Notities over Harold Austin Liebes

Bennett Binard had an ulterior motive in traveling east. He had contactedEmma Liebes, whom he had known when she and her husband, Adolph, had lived in Colfax.[73] Emma was born in Germany in May 1853[74] and as Emma Mayer was married to Adolph in Virginia City, Nevada on 27 November 1875.[75] The couple later moved to New York City, where Adolph was an agent for the San Francisco Furrier H. Liebes.[76] Emma was described as a woman who "has lived in the east, has visited Paris, London, Berlin, Brandenburg, Germany, Vienna and other cities. She is a handsome cultured woman, speaking several languages and a member of noted women's clubs."[77]

In 1899 Adolph tried to commit suicide by shooting himself three times in the chest.[78] He survived and died six years later, 10 November 1905.[79] Early the next year Bennett traveled east to visit Emma. He wrote, "I arrived here on Wednesday, April 25 and we are going to be married tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock. Will remain here eight or 10 days, then for home."[80] The couple returned in May and took up residence at the Hotel Whitman in Colfax.[81]

The 1910 census shows Bennett and Emma living in Colfax with a 16-year-old female servant who was born in Russia.[82] Later in the year Bennett became ill with bronchial trouble and his doctor recommended he take up residence near the seashore. He went first to Portland[83] and then to Los Angeles, where he passed away on 26 January 1911. His wife and daughter Minnie were with him.[84] His funeral was held at the Spokane Elks' Temple and he was buried in the Elks' lot next to his first wife in the Fairmont Cemetery.[85]

Bennett left a will in which he bequeathed $1.00 each to his daughters Rachel Levinson, Phoebe Johnson, and Birdie Bills; a gold watch and chain to his son Daniel; a diamond ring to his daughter Annie Fisher; and a life insurance policy worth $2,000 to daughter Minnie Binnard. All the rest of his property was to be divided equally between his wife and Minnie. His estate, consisting of cash, household goods, and a stock of liquors, cigars, and fixtures in his saloon at 215 Main Street in Colfax, was worth $4,422.30.[86]

In 1912 Bennett's widow Emma moved to Boise, Idaho to live with her daughter [Charlotte], Mrs. W. F. Libman.[87] By 1917 she had returned to New York City and passed away there on 30 June, survived by her son, Arthur, and daughter Mrs. Libman. Her body was cremated.[88]
