2 May 1895
The entire community was shocked Saturday morning by the announcement of the sudden death of Mr. Byron L. Allin at the home of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Adeline Waterfill. Mr. Allin and family had been living for the last two years at Wiley, Texas, where he had a position in a telegraph office. A few weeks since they had come to this State to reside, and were staying temporarily at the home of Mrs. Waterfill. Friday night Mr. Allin returned from Louisville where he had been on business. About five o'clock the next morning his wife woke and was horrified to find him in a dying condition. The family were aroused, and physicians summoned, but in a few minutes life was extinct, the physicians attributing it to heart disease.
The diseased was born and reared at Harrodsburg, where he had many warm personal friends. He had spent only a short time in this community and was a comparative stranger. He was very proficient in his profession, and was a capable young business man. The remains were interred in the Lawrenceburg Cemetery Monday morning, funeral services having been held at the Waterfill home by the Rev. W.Y. Davis.
