Campbell - David - 1894 - Montgomery InGenWeb Project

Yesterday afternoon David Campbell, residing just beyond the Walnut Fork Bridge on the Darlington Road, went to his stable to doctor a sick horse. When his absence seemed unduly protracted, his wife went to the barn and was horrified to find the dead body of her husband in a stall next to the one occupied by the sick horse. He had died of heart disease, the end being brought in all probability, by over exertion in working with the animal. Mr. Campbell had been troubled with heart disease for some time and it was expected he would pass away just as he did. He was born in this county forty seven years ago and was esteemed by the community in which he lived. He leaves a wife and a daughter, aged thirteen.-- thanks so much to s for tying this and so many obits for this site
