On Thursday last a boy named Edward Murray, aged about 14 years, who was living with George Rothmeyer, was kicked in the abdomen by a suckling colt. Medical attendance was summoned but in spite of all, the boy died Saturday night.

He was an orphan that had been taken by Mr. Rothmeyer from the school at Dubuque. Monday an aunt of the boy arrived from Boone, Ia., and after services at St. Joseph's church Tuesday morning the body was taken to Boone for interment. It was a very sad accident.

~Elkader Register, Thursday, July 30, 1903
