Thomas Mason
Thomas Mason, an employe at the lumber camp of
Thomas Nester on the Sugar, died suddenly Monday
morning of last week. He had been suffering from
billiousness, although able to work as usual, and on
Sunday drank nearly a pint of salt and water under the
impression that it would serve as an emetic, and
relieve him of his billiousness. In two hours he was
unconscious, having never rallied from the moment he
yielded to the influence of the fatal draught. The
body was taken down to Saginaw City on the evening
train Monday. Deceased was a single man about 35
year's of age, and was well known among the lumber
boys of these parts. We understand that he has
relatives near Ottawa, Ont.
