Other Commentary on Death

So here's the post I'm thinking of:

Death Due to Exposure

The body of James McCarthy was found alongside the railroad track near Manor station Tuesday morning. It was at first thought McCarthy might have met with foul play, but it is now believed he was frozen to death while intoxicated.

Sometimes if I'm at a graveside of someone I don't know -- for whatever reason -- I wonder, what'd that guy die of?

So, if you're ever at the graveside of James McCarthy, New York, who died in March 1895, you can look down and say, They found him alongside the railroad track. At first they thought maybe it was foul play, but later they believed it was something worse. Intoxicated, went over by the railroad track and froze to death.

Not a great way to go!
