Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 22, Number 81, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 June 1901 — Natural Causes. [ARTICLE]

Natural Causes.

Juryman—Yes, we brought in a verdict of death from natural causes. Reporter—But an iron beam fell on him from the fourth floor? Juryman—Of course. Wasn’t that natural? You wouldn’t expect it to fall up on the eighth floor, would you? That’s where he ought to have been at work instead of down in the basement.— Judge.
