From Whiteside Sentinel -- July 15, 1891
A very sad accident occurred at the residence of C. W. Reynolds of this township, on Wednesday evening of last week. Mr. Henry Horning of Malvern, son of Mr. S. E. Horning of Sterling, was engaged in painting Mr. Reynold's barn. He was standing upan a ladder about thirty feet from the ground when Mr. Reynolds put his team in teh stable. One of the horses ran out, struck the ladder, which fell, throwing Mr. Horning to the ground and breaking his neck. When they picked him up they found that he was dead. Nine years ago this month while working upon the same barn Mr. Horning fell and had both of his arms broken.
Last January his wife died leaving her husband and five small children to mourn her loss. Now these children are orphaned and thus deprived of a father's loving care and attention.
Mr. Horning was a hard working man, sober, industrious and honest. He was thirty-three years old and had been a resident of Malvern for a long time and was much esteemed by his acquaintences. The funeral services occurred on Friday afternoon at the residence of Mr. Reynolds. The remains are interred in the Hickory Grove Cemetery besides those of his wife.
