July 7, 1859 North Carolina Argus SINGULAR DEATH -- On Tuesday evening last, JOHN SIBLEY, the son of ELIJAH SIBLEY, living near Cedar Hills, met with a sudden and violent breach from a most unexpected and singular cause. He was in the act of passing through the gate having a kniefe in his hand, peeling some fruit. Whilst thus engaged, the gate in closing struck his arm, and drove the knife into his heart causing a wound which proved fatal in a few hours. He died on the following morning. He was 16 years of age. File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/nc/anson/obits/s/sibley901ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ncfiles/ File size: 1.1 Kb
