General Notes: Wife - Sarah M. "Sadie" Anthony

---

She and her sister Maggie were accidentally drowned while bathing in Stump creek, near their father's home with two of their young friends, Cora Rugh and Rosy Rymen, the daughters of neighbors. All four were bright and attractive girls, beloved through-out the community, where the sad occurrence caused a profound shock. At their funeral, which took place a few days later in the cemetery at Big Run, an immense throng assembled in token of sympathy with the bereaved parents, being probably the largest congregation of people that was ever drawn together in Jefferson County.
