Infant Tilton passes
Danville Commercial News
July 15, 1881
A Sad Case
The remains of an infant child of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Tilton, of Newtown, who died at Walnut Ridge, Ark., on Monday morning, arrived in the city this morning via Terre Haute over the Vandalia road from St. Louis. It will be remembered that Mr. and Mrs. Tilton left for Hot Springs, Ark., about four weeks since on a health-seeking expedition. After they had been there two weeks their six month old child was taken ill. It gradually grew worse until Sunday last when the attending physician advised Mr. and Mrs. Tilton that there was no hope for the child if they remained there and further advised the bereaved parents that there was a possibility of the child's recovery if they would start for home. Accordingly they boarded the Sunday night train and got as far as Walnut Grove, Ark., when the failing condition of the little sufferer necessitated a lay-over. The child did not live but a few hours. Mr. and Mrs. Tilton arrived in the city Tuesday afternoon.

John Murray Obit
Danville Commercial News
July 15, 1881
Young John Murray, of Tilton, crushed to death by coal falling on him in the Ellsworth Mines, Monday.
John, aged 14 years, son of John Murray, sr., of Tilton, while working in company of his father and brother in the old Ellsworth mines, which are located between South Danville and Tilton, a quantity of coal and soapstone fell from the roof Monday at 12 o'clock, a portion of which struck the unfortunate boy, breaking the left leg at the ankle and cutting his head, and it is supposed also, causing internal injuries. Although the attending surgeon could find no outward bruises to indicate that he was internally hurt, yet it is the opinion that such injuries existed. He was conveyed to his home at Tilton in an unconscious condition, where he received professional attention from Dr. Morehouse. He lived until 2:30 p.m., when he expired.
The employees at the Ellsworth and Western mines quit work as is their usual custom when one of their own number is fatally or dangerously injured.
