Putnam County News
With deep regret we chronicle the death of William Thom, grandson of the widow Longtree of Arispie. We have been unable to learn the particulars, more than he was in the far west dealing in cattle, and at the time of his death, was crossing a stream with some stock and was drowned. Having been personally acquainted with William, we know him to have been an intelligent young man, and he will be greatly missed by his many friends.
