Saline Republican
April 21, 1899
Thrown From His Horse and Killed
Sam Fizer, who lived in the southeast part of Slater, was thrown from his horse Monday and sustained such injuries that he died about two hours afterwards.
He was coming east on the south side of the railroad, here in town, when his horse became frightened at a moving rain and threw him. He fell on his head, receiving such a jar that concussion of the brain was produced.
However, he was able, with some help, to get into a vehicle and was taken home, where he grew suddenly worse and soon expired. Dr. Proctor was called, but the injured man was dying when he reached him, and he could not render any assistance. Dr. Jarvis also was called, but Mr. Fizer was dead when he reached the house.
Deceased was about 50 years of age and quite well known in this part of the county. He leaves a wife and nine children. The burial took place at Orearville Tuesday afternoon.
