He spoke of not feeling well and said he would not work "tomorrow". While giving some instructions to his son concerning the work, he again complained of not feeling well and said his heart troubled him. He sat down in a rocking chair, put his hand to his heart and called to his wife, saying "I am going to die, " and in a few moments was dead.
