The Winterset Madisonian
Madison County, Iowa
September 3, 1874


Someone stole a case of dissecting instruments belonging to Dr. Leonard, for which he will pay a liberal reward. Persons using them run a great risk, as they have been used in dissecting dead bodies.

We hear that a son of William McDonald, of Jefferson Township, died on Saturday last, from the kick of a mule several days before. The lad, we understand, was struck on the head. These are all the particulars we could get.
