The Grinnell Herald; 1886

--Mrs. Sarah Ann Dickey died suddenly this morning about five o'clock, probably from heart disease. She passed away so quietly that none of the family, tho' up and about the house, knew the exact moment she breathed her last. Mrs. Dickey came to this place with her family nearly 30 years ago, from Searsport, Me., and was one of the "Maine colony," of which Dr. Holyoke, Rodney Clark, Josiah Porter, the Harrimans, L.A. Patterson, Uncle John Black, Mr. Ellis, with their families were members. She was a woman much beloved by all who knew her.
