Death of Nathan Carter
The accident, which caused the sudden death of this pioneer citizen last Tuesday, was a shock to the community. At eleven o'clock he was unloading a boxcar when suddenly the lumber fell striking him in the breast and knocking him backward out of the door fracturing the skull and causing concussion of the brain. He never recovered consciousness and died at eleven o'clock the same night.
He was one of the first settlers of Blair City, organized in 1868 the first Masonic Lodge of this county and was its Master until March 1870. Later he was Master of Washington Lodge, Blair, from December 1880 to 1881, also from January 1889 to January 1890.
Mr. Carter was born in Scotia County, Ohio, December 19, 1828 and was past 62 years old at the time of his death. He was a useful, moral, kind-hearted and public-spirited citizen whose demise is mourned by all who knew him. He leaves a wife and family of eight children, mostly grown to man and womanhood. By foresight and economy he provided an insurance endowment, which now amounts to over $7,000 and places his dependent family in comfortable circumstances. The funeral takes place Friday at 2 P.M. from the Baptist church under the auspices of the Masons and John A. Dix Post, of which orders he was a member.
