ALLEN - At Buffalo, P.O. Wyoming Territory, June 8th, 1885, G. Jay Allen, son of Mrs. Sarah A. Allen of this place, in the 26th year of his age. News was received at this place yesterday of the death of G. Jay Allen, formerly of this place. He was working in a sawmill at Buffalo, Wyoming Territory, so writes Mr. C. Clelland, his companion, and had by accident one of his arms severed by the saw. As there was no doctor within twenty miles, his fellow workmen started in a wagon with him to get medicine and a hail storm overtook them delaying the party four hours. The delay resulted fatally. The bereaved friends have the sympathy of the community. The case is shrouded with some mystery at the present time as his mother only learned through friends in this section of his death.
