Samuel Jackson was killed a few months after his marriage in the performance of a heroic and courageous deed to protect the lives of others. An account of his death appeared in a Wetzel County newspaper, as follows;-"Samuel Jackson, son of Orange Jackson of Silver Hill, was instantly killed Thursday afternoon, while on his way to the Grandison Lemaster farm when the drive-wheel on a tractor engine of the threshing-machine gave way and plunged down a steep embankment, going through a corn field Striking a tree 18 inches in diameter before it finally stopped and the machine a complete wreck. "Mr. Jackson and his brother, Alonzo, were on the Engine when it started down hill, the brother jumped and was unhurt, but in order to prevent the engine from tearing through the Lemaster home, Samuel courageously stayed at the throttle to turn it by and when he jumped he was caught in the machine. "The Jackson brothers had been operating a thresher for a number of years and were well known throughout the neighborhood and all will be deeply grieved at his sad death. Samuel was married last February to Amanda Kirkland of Wileyville, who survives him; also his father, mother, brother and sister." Res. of widow (1960) 241 Leap Street, New Martinsville, W.Va.
