American Friend & Marietta Gazette, November 20, 1830
Died on Wednesday, November 10, William Lucius, son of Daniel H. Buell, Esq., in the 13th year of his age. While the circumstances resulting in the death of this youth were of a nature peculiarly afflicting to his relatives, a deep sympathy was generally felt and manifested by the friends and acquaintances of the family of which he was a member. On the 11th of September last a Liberty pole erected near the Court house fell upon the deceased, by which his skull was very extensively fractured. By the assiduous attentions, however, of skillful surgeons, he was, until a few days previous to his death considered convalescent. The injury hitherto hidden in its full extent, at length manifested itself by inflammation and dropsy of the brain, producing inveterate spasmodic affections and stupor, ending in dissolution.
