Jackson Argus December 1901

Bohannon
A man named Bohannon died out near Worthville, very suddenly and under very 
strange circumstances last, Sunday morning.  Although perfectly well all day 
Saturday, his wife and sister were aroused during the night by his frantic 
ravings.  As soon as it was light enough to travel they sent for Dr. Will 
Butler.  Bohannon became quiet, and they, after putting a hot brick to his feet, 
sat down in front of the fire to await the arrival of the doctor.  When Dr. 
Butner arrived he examined and found that Bohannon was dead.  Dr. Butner says 
the cause puzzles him as the symptoms and effect resembled poisoning more than 
anything else.  Another strange thing is that although Bohannon was paid $54 a 
few days before, and had not been known to spend any of it, his wife could find 
only five  dollars in his clothes after death.  The case is attracting a great 
deal of comment in the neighborhood.  The Argus extends its deepest sympathy to 
the relatives
