Sudden and singular death occurred in Walnut township last Monday night. Henry Watts, a single man, apparently in good health, who had shucked corn all day, came into his father's house and sat down in a chair, talking and laughing, when to the surprise and grief of his folks, he suddenly dropped down dead. No reason can be given for his sudden decease.
