Notes |
- The family story is that he fell off a campaign train causing his death. I went to Terre Haute and found the article describing his death in the local newspaper. He was under the influence of alcohol and was walking along the train tracks to visit his relative on a Sunday morning. He fell asleep on the tracks and the train heading to Tearre Haute ran over his legs. They stopped the train and took him on board. He died of shock in a hospital in Terre Haute. I will put up a copy of the article. Dave Howard
