Notes - MHR note: "Pete" had 160 acres, 4.5 miles N.E. of Wetmore, Kansas. In 1916 it had an 8 room house and electric lights. He had a well drilling outfit with which he could make $150 per month in 1916. He gave a statement for my book - see big sheet, p.B-4.
[1] - LKH note:
The date for the twin boy who dies in infancy does not match the dates given by Mary Hedges Reiner.
However, the probability is very high that there was only one Peter Cassity with infant twin boys in Wetmore Kansas in 1895 and one died.
* * * *
One of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Cassity’s twin boys, aged seven months, died of whooping cough on Monday and was buried in the Wetmore cemetery on Tuesday at 11 o’clock. The other child is very low with the same disease.
