From Nevada Representative April 15, 1885

Story City.

....Last Saturday evening Dr. C. W. Allen was hurriedly called to the home of Joe Sheffield. His oldest boy had been suddenly taken sick; and though all haste was made the Dr. came too late for any assistance, for Willie was dead. This sudden death brought grief not only to relatives, but to all who knew him. His good manners and industrious habits had given him many friends. His age was about 21 years.
