Jackson Daily Citizen
Saturday, 15 January, 1870

         TRUMAN RAYMOND, who resides a few miles north of
       Saranac, was fatally injured by falling on a hay
       knife on the 12th. It seems that he was getting
       over a fence, slipped and fell on the knife, cut-
       ting him nearly in two. His intestines protruded
       from the wound so that he was obliged to hold them
       in with his hand until he reached the house, which
       was near by. A surgeon was called and dressed the
       wound, but pronounced it a hopeless case. At last
       accounts he was still alive but in great agony.
       
       Transcriber's Note: Truman Raymond did not survive.
       His name is found on the 1870 Census Mortality
       Schedule of Ionia County, MI.
