Not a lot of information is contained in these two obituaries so I will just post a condensed version.

Mr. Lee and his brother were making hay when the storm hit, his brother seeking shelter in a barn and Mr. Lee sought shelter under a chestnut tree in the field. ---------------------------------------------------------- The Garrett Journal, Apr. 30, 1903 Mrs. G.

Edward Rodruck Lee, whose death is noted below, was born September 6, 1862, son of George Smith Lee and Julia Ann (Harvey). Edward was single.
