“Mr. Will McClellan, of Rulo, was drowned Saturday afternoon while working on the bridge at Plattsmouth. The men were at work when the travelers used on the bridge fell, knocking Mr. McClellan into the river, falling a distance of 135 feet. Several others were injured. The deceased was 24 years of age and leaves a wife and child. His parents live in Rulo. At this writing the body has not been found.”
From the Falls City News of April 3, 1903.
