Life

He was born on February 2, 1877, in Allershausen, Province of Hanover, Kingdom of Prussia. In 1896, he emigrated to the United States, and settled in Brooklyn, Kings County, New York. There he ran a grocery store.[1]

In November 1913, he was elected on the Progressive ticket, with Republican endorsement, to the New York State Assembly (Kings Co., 19th D.), defeating the incumbent Democrat Jacob Schifferdecker. Scheidemann was a member of the 137th New York State Legislature in 1914. In November 1914, he ran on the Progressive ticket for re-election, but was defeated by Democrat William A. Bacher.

He died in June 1964.[2]

gollark: Why would they not:- look at stuff from orbit beforehand, or send unmanned probes- have at least basic weaponry available for defense against possibly hostile native life- have waaaay better medical technology and/or environmental protection stuff, thus making the deinosuchi not very threatening
gollark: Oh, and they need good shielding against high-velocity particles, which might work okay against some weapons fire.
gollark: Any drive capable of bringing you up to ridiculous fractions of lightspeed will have a horribly dangerous exhaust, the power sources necessary could also run tons of weapons, and you can use said drive things to, I don't know, accelerate asteroids to high velocities and crash them into planets.
gollark: Ah, but their ships themselves would have to be weapons to travel interstellarly.
gollark: Technologically speaking.
