The Springdale News from The Rogers Democrat
Springdale, AR
April 15, 1898

The sad and unexpected news of the sudden news of the sudden death of Asa Rice, who resides east of here on the War Eagle river, reached Rogers Friday evening when the men came in for a coffin. The funeral was held the next day and the remains were buried at Clifty. Mr. Rice was killed on Thursday evening by a kick from a horse, the blow striking him just over the heart. Mr. Rice had gone out to saddle a horse for his boy, and his wife a few moments later thought she heard an unusual noise. She went to the door just in time to hear her husband call to her but by the time she reached him he was dead.
