The Weekly News, Frederick MD, 12 Dec 1883, Page 3

Yesterday morning at about 6:45 o’clock, as Mr. Oscar E. Steiner was 
talking to one of the clerks at the City Hotel, he was taken with an 
attack of vertigo and in falling struck his head on the edge of the 
marble slab at the clerks counter, inflicting a terrible gash.  He 
was taken into the reading room and from thence to an apartment in 
the Hotel where he died at about 10:15 o’clock. Thedeceased was born 
in Springfield Ohio, and moved to Taneytown this county, in about 
the year 1877, when he married the daughter of Squire Haugh of that 
place and move to this city, about two years later.
 He is the son of Rev. Jesse Steiner, former pastor of the Glade
(Reformed) Church, but at present stationed somewhere in the West, 
and a brother of Mrs. D. M. Scholl, of this city.  He was an active 
member of the United Fire Company, and his here was that of General 
Agent, of the Frederick City Mutual Aid Association, which position 
he filled to the entire satisfaction of the company.  As near as can 
be ascertained he was at the  time of his death about 35 years old, 
and leaves a wife and three children to mourn his early demise.  
The body will be taken to Taneytown today for burial.  Coroner 
Wallace was prepared to hold an inquest but after hearing the 
evidence of eye witnesses did not think it was necessary to act.
