Gospel Herald - Volume IV, Number 11 - June 15, 1911 - page 176:
Jones-- Samuel J. Jones of Hollsopple, Pa., was born May 20, 1862, and was killed by lightning May 23, 1911; aged 49 y. 3 d. Funeral services were conducted at the Blough Church by S. G. Shetler, D. S. Yoder and L. A. Blough. Text, Rev. 22:12. Burial in cemetery nearby. The sudden death of Bro. Jones was quite a shock to the community and should be a loud call to every one to be ready at all times for the messenger of death. He was out in the field planting corn, one of his little daughters being with him when a bolt of lightning struck him, killing him instantly and shocking the little girl so that she was unconscious for quite awhile but she recovered. He is survived by a sorrowing wife, a number of children and many friends to mourn for him. May God bless and comfort the family in their sad bereavement.
