Sept. 10, 1880: "Wednesday night, September 1, the wife of Mr. Jacob Kendall, of El Dara, after retiring to bed, suddenly raised up and fell from the bed prostrate on the floor. Her little daughter called to her father sleeping in an adjoining room that "mother had fallen out of bed and can't talk". Striking a light as soon as possible he ran to her aid to find her dead. Aid was summoned, but all attempts at ?? were vain. She is supposed to have died in an apoplectic fit. She was 37 and left several children. She was buried Friday."
