SAD ACCIDENT

The accident that happened to Mr. Charles E. Butler, as was mentioned in the
last issue of the Record as having happened last Thursday, has turned out to be
one of the most sad that has occurred in Buchanan in many months.  The blow he
received  produced concussion of the brain, from which inflammation set in,
resulting in death, which occurred Tuesday morning.  Mr. Butler was well
respected by a large circle of friends, was a member of Summit Lodge No., 192,
F. & A. M., which conducted the funeral ceremonies yesterday afternoon.  He was
also foreman of Buchanan Hose Company No. 1 and a member of the Buchanan Relief
Association, composed of the mechanics of this place.  In respect to his memory
the Engine and Hose Companies attended the funeral in uniform, and the various
manufactories were shut down to enable their employes[sic] to attend the
funeral, by all of whom he was highly respected.  Mr. Butler was 34 years of age
and leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss.
