New York, 1895
Claude D. Sanford, son of Charles S. Sanford, a merchant of Northport, rode on his bicycle to Patchogue and then to Moriches on Saturday. Sunday morning he started back. After covering the distance of sixty-two miles, and when within a quarter of a mile of home, he fell from his wheel. He called for a doctor, and two physicians came and worked over him for two hours. He died in terrible agony, without recognizing any of his family.
Robbery Attempt
An attempt was made to rob the residence of James Murphy, at Hicksville, but the burglars were not successful.
—The Long Island Farmer, Jamaica, NY, June 28, 1895, p. 4.
