OBITUARY: Further Details of Death of Young Windsor of Lincoln. While hauling oats from the field Saturday morning John, a 17 year old son of Benjamin Windsor, of Lincoln, Polk county, fell and was crushed under the wheels. He got up and drove home, but there sunk away from internal hemorrhage. Dr. Richardson arrived two hours before the boy died. He was in a state of perfect collapse and pulseless. Dr. Chase, of Lincoln was there soon after the accident but he was beyond relief. The funeral was held Sunday at 3 P.m. and the body buried at Zena, with an unusual attendance of friends, the procession being over a mile long. Deceased was a quiet, industrious boy, well liked by all and his death is a great loss to the family. Evening Capital Journal 7 Sep 1891, 3:4
