August 20, 1881

Mr. Seth BLYSTONE, an old and well known resident of this locality, died
suddenly late Tuesday afternoon, in a well on the farm of Mr. M.W. GOUIN, about
three miles east of La Cygne. He went into the well to do some work, against the
wishes of Mr. Gouin, who feared it would not answer for him to enter it. Mr.
Blystone, however, thought he could get along all right, btu had been in the
well only about five minutes before he was overcome with foul, damp air, and had
hardly called Mr. Gouin that "It loos as though I was gone," or some similar
expression, before he was dead. Dr. W.B. CLINE was summoned to see the poor man,
but of course he was beyond all earthly help. The deceased was about 40 years
old, unmarried, of good character and possessing many friends. He leaves a
sistr, the wife of David GOSS, of Potosi township. The remains of the deceased
were buried in the cemetery near the Star school house, this township, on
Wednesday.
