Miller, was born March 17, 1879, in Nodaway county and died from taking strychnine Saturday night, August 20, 1898, at about 10 o'clock at J. W. Miller's about two miles northeast of Graham. He took the poison at Mr. Miller's well, not far from the house, and when very sick, called for Guy, a grandson of J. W. Miller's three times, and when he heard him he went to him and he was taken to the house and the friends, relatives, and Dr. M. M. Rhodes were called at once. Though the doctor went in great haste, he got there too late to save him. The matter is a mystery. He had been over heated some two or three summers ago, and each summer since he has had sick spells and suffered much from pains in the head. He had not been well for more than a month before his death and his father, mother and friends noticed that he acted strangely at times; but did not think much of it till the fatal deed was done. Why he did this may never be known to anyone, and to try to explain is perhaps unwise. Will was a young man of good promise and had many friends. He was a member of White Cloud Baptist church for about three years before his death. His funeral was preached at Swan Chapel, August 22, 1898, at eleven a.m. to a large, attentive and sympathetic congregation; after which he was laid to rest in that cemetery, to await the call of God to awake the sleeping dust. Rev. G. W. Neff, pastor"
