Copy of letter to Albert Humrickhouse from Henry Clay:

"At Mr. John Zombros, July 6, 1834
"Dear Sir:
"I lament extremely to have to communicate to you a most disastrous and melancholy accident which has just occurred. In descending a small hill about one mile from Brucetown at this house, there were no lock chains, the horses ran away with the stage and throwing the whole on the side of the bank upsetting it on the opposite side. Your son was sitting with the driver and endeavored to assist him in obtaining command of the horses but unfortunately got somehow entangled, fell and received the entire weight of the stage upon him. The horses pulled off the four wheels and ran away, the driver pursuing them. There was in the stage my servant, a lady and myself. Perceiving your son was caught under the stage we got out as soon as we possibly could, raised the stage and drew your son out but, alas, is [sic] was no avail. His neck was broken, his entrails seriously injured, he bled profusely at the nose and never spoke. He breathed but expired about twelve o'clock, a few minutes after the accident occurred. I know not how sufficiently to express to you my deep and sincere regret on this occasion. I offer you all the condolence that can possibly be felt or tendered upon such circumstances. You have lost a fine son. I was much interested in him during our short acquaintance and journey as he manifested a constant desire for my personal comfort while we were together and I feel grateful for his friendly attention. We are now engaged in making the best arrangement we can to have his body taken care of and restored to you and his family. Except a slight scratch on one of my legs those of us who were in the stage, as well as the driver, escaped without material injury. Wishing that yourself and your family may be at this heavy affliction with Christian resignation and manly fortitude, I am, with profound sympathy,
"Your obedient servant,
"Henry Clay"
