Jackson Sentinel
May 11, 1893

-A special from Miles under date of the 5th, says that Mr. John Davis, a brother of Josiah Davis, H. P. Davis of Miles, and Charles Davis of Sabula, dropped dead in a chair in the post office at Green Island, Jackson county, Iowa, Friday morning about 9 o’clock. Mr. Davis has not had good health for some years, but for the past few days he had felt unusually well. He walked from his home to the post office, a distance of about half a mile, and conversed in his usual pleasant manner with the inmates of the office, when suddenly he fell back in the chair and was dead. Heart disease was the cause of death. Mr. Davis was past 60 years old. He has three sons who have reached manhood.
