Request for Newspaper Articles about Tom Carothers

The death certificate for Thomas Carothers indicates he died in some type of railroad related accident in Kansas City, Missouri on April 24, 1913. It is quite likely that, as with Cecil Carothers, there are newspaper articles related to Tom's death. That being the case, I have made a request of the State Historical Society of Missouri for them to search for any newspaper articles related to Tom's accident and death. I'm guessing there should be an article in Kansas City newspapers and at least an obituary in Clinton, Missouri.

I tried the online request form, but I will likely have to mail in another request with a small research fee. It is well worth it.
