Obituary: Evening News, Jeffersonville, Indiana, 10 Oct 1906, reads: CLYDE MCKINLEY DIED AT HOSPITAL – Popular Young Man, Instructor At Reformatory, Dead After Short Illness – FUNERAL AT BORDEN – Death came at 10:15 Tuesday night to Clyde McKinley at the Deaconess hospital where he had been since noon on Sunday. Death had been expected since that time though he had been ill only since last Friday when he first complained of pains in the stomach. He was attended by Dr. Harry C. Sharp who pronounced the patient a victim of volvulus, an impaction of the bowels, caused by inflammation. Sunday evening he was operated upon by Drs. Sharp, Peyton and Varble but the case was then seen to be hopeless and that he lived till Tuesday night was evidence of a remarkable vitality. Mr. McKinley was 27 years of age and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Milburn McKinley of Borden, his father being a cousin of Postmaster Albert McKinley, former Republican county chairman. His father is a mail carrier on one of the rural routes in Wood Township. He is survived, besides his parents, by one sister, Olive, the wife of Dr. Hail of Upton, Ind., to who she was married last spring. Another sister died about four years ago in New Albany. Mr. McKinley was a graduate of Borden College and subsequently taught school in Wood Township. Later he became principal of the Utica schools for a period of two years and he had been an instructor in the schools of letters at the Reformatory about 18 months. He also at one time took a three years course in medicine at the University of Louisville. Mr. McKinley was popular with his fellow employees at the Reformatory and with all who knew him, being of a very companionable disposition. His parents are members of the Borden Christian church. They and his sister and brother in-law were present during his illness and at his death. The body was shipped today to Borden where the funeral service will be held and the remains will be interred in the local graveyard.
