May 19th, 1879
Mr. Robinson, a farmer who lived several miles east of here, died very suddenly last Friday (16 May 1879) morning, supposed he died of heart disease. He stayed over night at Chas. Brown's, and in the morning he walked down to his home where he dropped dead while leaning on his staff. The man farming his place chanced to be near, summoned help and carried him in the house, then the friends were sent for. He was taken to his son-in-law's, Mr. Baker that evening, and was buried in the Kingston grave yard on Sabbath day.
