Decorah Public Opinion – April 24, 1912 pg 4
Peter Marcy a well known resident of the village of Bluffton for many years, suddenly dropped dead in the store last Wednesday. With several other men he was in the store, joking and talking as usual, seemingly in good health and upon stepping behind the counter for some purpose suddenly dropped dead. He has been a resident of Winneshiek county since after the close of the war and raised a family of children in Bluffton. He was 65 years of age. He will be missed my many who have known him during the past forty years.
