| Notes for Samuel Henry Allen |
| "Came into the house after riding through snow and sleet, removing his gunblet he laid it across a chair. Peter Davidsons young daughter Josephine was visiting and as he washed up the gunbelt slipped to the floor, discharged and killed the little girl of 7 yrs." He was so mournful of the accident that he gathered all his monies, which was over $1100. and gave it all to Elizabeth Davidson, the little girls mother. He placed a gravestone in the Davidson family cemetery and had it marked. He got on his horse and rode away.49 |
