    1. [IN-SOUTH-CENTRAL] Bartholomew County: Andrew Nolte Died
    2. Randi Richardson via
    3. West Eau Claire (WI) Argus, April 3, 1867, p. 3. Some of the penalties that nature inflicts upon vice of different kinds are as horrible as anything ever imagined of infernal retributions. A well authenticated case of spontaneous combustion occurred in Columbus, Indiana, on the 15th ult. Andrew Nolte, a German very intemperate in his habits, was found dead in his shop, his lips entirely burned away leaving a ghastly hole, and his tongue charred to a crisp. His nose was also burned as if by fire coming out of his nostrils, and his clothes were still burning when found. No other part of his body, save the air passages, was burned.
