Ionia Standard – Friday, 16 July 1897
Mrs. Margaret Buy, an old colored lady, died at 10 o’clock Monday morning, at 
the home of her daughter, Mrs. Kale Brown, from an accidental dose of carbolic 
acid.  She was ailing, and picked up the cup by mistake, supposing it to be 
the remedy she desired.  Her daughter, had just been using the carbolic acid, 
but she must have forgotten about it.  She only lived about five minutes after 
taking the fatal draught.  She was 92 years old, and “spry” for her age.  She 
was mother of eight children, five of whom are living.  She leaves besides, 29 
grand children, 31 great grand children, and four great, great grand 
children.  Funeral Thursday and interment at Vickeryville.
