Monroe Journal October 12, 1905
Mr. William Gandy, a young man aged about 18 years, was crushed to death by a 
falling tree near Mexia last Saturday.  The young man, accompanied by his 
father and a Negro, were driving along the public road during the prevalence 
of a high wind when they observed a large pine tree in the set of falling.  
The Negro urged the team to increased speed and escaped.  But the father and 
son jumped from the wagon and the latter was caught beneath and crushed by the 
ponderous weight of the trunk.  The elder Gandy sustained slight injuries.
