    1. [IN-SOUTH-CENTRAL] Washington County: Mrs. Knight Called Her Sons to Her Anticipated Death Bed

    3. Baltimore (MD) Sun, July 19, 1871, p. 1. An interesting occasion-Mrs. Knight of Salem, Indiana, an old lady of 92, being ill, recently called around her bedside her five sons, all gray-haired from age, to be present at her anticipated death. The scene was one of deep interest. The sons ranged in age from 73 downward, a lapse of two years between each of them. They comprised the venerable woman's entire family, and she had lived to see all of them grandfathers without a death in her family except her husband.
