From: Mahoning Dispatch [Youngstown]
Issue: Fri, 19 Mar 1897 - Article No. 9 by Dr. Jackson Truesdale Excerpt regarding: James & Lemuel Doud

"Lemuel never married or had a separate interest in farm from his brother [James]. He was said to be a hard worker, a neat farmer, an honest respected man. He lost his life in a way that produced quite a sensation at the time. He was a member of a company of dragoons, or cavalry, and when off duty at a meeting of the company held in Youngstown in 1810, he placed for safe keeping a loaded pistol in his pocket. A comrade for some purpose asked for it; and in taking it out the pistol went off, inflicting a terrible wound in the upper arm and shoulder. The wound was dressed and he was conveyed to his home, where he suffered intense pain for several days when "mortification" took place and he died at the age of 33. It is quite possible that the surgical treatment he received was not of the highest order."
