Advertiser & Appeal; Saturday 9 July 1881; pg. 3 col. 2

SUDDEN DEATH—A very sudden death occurred in our city last Tuesday night.  
During the evening the children of the family, Casey, by name (new-comers 
here, we understand), were playing pranks on each other, and with false faces, 
scaring each other, etc.  At bed-time the child in question got into bed and 
said something about “old booggerman,” an expression they had been using to 
frighten each other.  In a few moments the light was extinguished, and 
immediately after, the child was taken with a terrible convulsion, from which 
it never recovered.  It died in a very short while.  Its disease was, no dout 
[sic], of the heart, and was superinduced by the fright received.
