The Ionia Standard, Friday, March 26, 1900

Montgomery Metzgar, the four years old son of John Metzgar, Easton, met with a 
terrible accident Mon. evening about 4 o’clock.  He was in the sapbush, where 
the men were at work, and attempted to ladle up the boiling sap in the pan, as 
he had seen the men do, when he lost his balance and fell head down in the 
pan.  He was drawn out as quickly as possible, but he was immersed long enough 
to cause terrible burns on the breast and face.  Dr. Ogden was summoned, and 
rendered such aid as possible, but all to no avail.  The child lay in a stupor 
until death came to its relief at 2:30 in afternoon.
