Note in the story below the spelling has not been changed from the original story. The name Michael should read Mitchell in real life. from the "Huron Tribune" Friday, April 28, 1905 "HEAD CRUSHED. What came nearly being a fatal accident happened at the postoffice building Monday afternoon. Postmaster Lundin was moving his safe into the building and as they got it in the doorway, Mr. William Church, father-in-law of Samuel Michael, placed his shoulder against it to give a shove, at the same time he had his head along side of the safe. In shoving it along it slipped over catching his head between the door and the safe, crushing it badly. At present writing Mr. Church is improving and is expected to be around again soon if no complications arise. Mr. Church lived for a number of years in Meade township, but the latter part of March moved his family near Steven, Minnesota, where the above took place."
