Obituary from The Tiller and Toiler (Larned, Kansas) 26 Jun 1896 p. 3
Last Thursday Ole the thirteen-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Val Olsen, of Sawmill township, was bitten on the arm by a small spreading adder, and died exactly twelve hours afterwards. A messenger was sent to Kinsley after medical aid, but for some reason the physician summoned refused to go. The funeral took place on Friday and a large crowd of neighbors followed the body to the Keysville cemetery. There is considerable feeling against the Kinsley quack who refused to come when sent for. The Toiler joins with the many friends of the bereaved family in extending sympathy in their sad hour.
