The Oxford Press,Thursday March 24,1910
Samuel Johnson, on of the quiet and industrious farmers of  East Nottingham, 
did about 7:30 o'clock on Monday morning, March 21,1910. last Friday morning 
he tripped on the curbstone in front of W.W. alexander's store, Oxford, and 
fell in the street. He was jarred considerably and sustained a bruise above 
the eye. Saturday and Sunday Mr. Johnson was sick, and the effects of the fall 
made his throat painful. He grew rapidly worse monday morning and died. The 
deceased did not enjoy robust health, but his spirit of determination and 
perseverance were of daily value to him.
  Samuel Johnson, son of John and Mary (Myers)Johson, was born near Strasburg, 
Lancaster county, Pa. He and his brother, John F., who survives, have operated 
various farms in this neighborhood for about 22 years. They enjoyed the best 
of reputations as farmers, proving themselves handy, faithful and staying on 
the place. Samuel hohnson spoke well of all men, but if ocasion arose he 
reserved his observations of his fellow man until he met him and then he let 
him have it. He was not given to talking behing their back. Samuel is survived 
by one brother and two sisters: John F., Miss Amanda and Mrs. Minnie Johnson 
the latter of Glen Mills Delaware county. The Johnsons have been operating the 
B.T. Wilson's farm, had a sale recently and expected to move into Oxford. John 
and his sister will move and occupy the house belonging to Edward Evans. The 
Funeral of the Samuel Johnson will be at the house at 12:30 p.m. this 
Thursday. Interment at Oxford cemetery.
When the deceased returned home from Oxford after his fall last Friday he 
discovered he had lost his teeth. Inquiry on the phone was made to Oxford but 
no teeth were found. Mr. Johnson having an ailing throat the family wondered 
if the teeth could have slipped down when he fell. After death, and to satisfy 
the family Dr. Barry made an incision in the throat but the missing plate was 
not found.
