Mrs. Frank Zegotta Mrs. Frank Zegotta died at her home at Greenwich Mines last Saturday evening from blood poisoning. The disease came, it is said, from a pimple she had on the face which was scratched by the fingernail of a small child. Blood poisoning developed and little if any attention was paid to the physician’s advice until the disease was beyond control. Connie Lehmire Connie, the second son of Mrs. Frank Lehmire of Spangler, after delivering a package of laundry was riding home on a beer wagon when suddenly a wheel went down in a deep rut causing the heavily loaded vehicle to careen. The boy attempted to jump but his foot caught in some manner and the wagon turned over on him, crushing his head and chest. He died a few minutes after being taken from under the wagon. _________________________________________________________________ Want to read Hotmail messages in Outlook?

I want to add my thanks to Patty for all the time and effort she has put in to posting these newspaper articles. I've been able to add a lot of articles to my family files, but even when there aren't articles specific to my family it is interesting to read these pages. It really illuminates the times in which our ancestors lived, the diseases and accidents that affected their lives, the sentiments that colored their vision of their world. Sometimes the contrast is startling between the grisly details of the accidents and the flowery phrases written about the newly married couples. Thanks again, Patty, for your generous contributions to the list! For anyone interested in the article below, Connie was a nickname for Constantine. He was aged 15 when he died. His father had died in 1902 of typhoid fever. The family name is spelled variously Lehmeyer, Laymire, and is now spelled Lehmier.
