Lake Village Times 2-20-1869 ALANSON STEWART
AWFUL ACCIDENT - At Suncook, on the 11th, at about nine o'clock A.M., three employees of the Pembroke Mills, Alanson Stewart, Frank Frazier, and their overseer, Charles B. Emerson - went out to repair the gas works. Before entering the reservoir, a light was lowered for testing the air. No indications of gas appeared, and Stewart and Frazier immediately went down into the reservoir. While they were at work fixing a broken pipe, a lantern was let down at the request of Stewart. Soon after, an explosion occurred, smoke rose from the reservoir and sounds as of distress. The force pumps of the mill were put in operation, and ten minutes after the accident, Superintendent Stewart went down the ladder, and found the disfigured bodies of Stewart and Frazier. Emerson escaped with bad burns, and was nearly suffocated. Mr. Pope, the agent of the mills, was hurled down an embankment by the force of the explosion and much bruised. The bodies were carried to the counting-room of the company and an inquest was held, E. B. Gould, Esq., acting as Coroner. The jurors were William Hazelton, Dr. C. F. P. Hildreth and Jacob WOods, who returned a verdict that the two men came to their death by the accidental ignition of naptha in the gas works of the Pembroke Mills Company, in which they were engaged in repairing the gas pipe, and where they had lighted a lantern, which in some way unknown came in contact with some inflammable material.
Stewart was a machinist by trade, and was an honest, reliable and industrious man. He was aged about forty and leaves a wife and two children. The impression is that Stewart slopped on some ice in the reservoir, and breaking his lantern ignited the gas. The reamains of Stewart were taken to Epsom for interment.
