The Cherokee Advance 10 Sept 1886 p 3 
A sad and fatal accident happened last Saturday at Dewars' new marble mills at 
Nelson's station on the M. & N. Ga. R. R. between Ball Ground and Tates.  While 
unloading a saw log off a wagon at the saw-mill the log, in some way, became 
uncontrollable and rolled against one of the hand-sticks, which struck Rashe Roe 
with great force on the side of the head, about the base of the skull, and 
killed him almost instantly.  Mr. Roe was comparatively a young man, but had a 
family consisting of a wife and several children, none of whom are able to work, 
and are now left in almost destituute (sic) circumstances.
