DROPPED DEAD
[Welland Telegraph September 17, 1903]
Immediately after buying a ticket at the Michigan Central depot last Friday evening about five o’clock, Mrs. E. McMahon dropped dead. Mrs. McMahon had been visiting her niece, Mrs. Arrowsmith of Stamford for about a month, and was about to return to her home in Boston. She had received her ticket and was walking across the floor towards Mrs. Arrowsmith when she collapsed. Drs McGarry and Walker were immediately summoned but nothing could be done, death came instantly. heart failure being the cause, brought on probably by the excitement of leaving. Mrs. McMahon was 67 years of and had enjoyed the best of health for the last two or three weeks. A son who resides in Detroit was telegraphed for and arrived Saturday afternoon. Undertaker Morse took charge of the body. The remains were afterwards taken to Somerville, a suburb of Boston for interment.
