Matthew's death was the result of a farm accident. Along with his sons, Bert and Leo, he was pulling hedge with a stump puller on his farm. A chain broke and a lever struck him below the knees, shattering both legs. He was carried home where a local Doctor was called for. Because of his weak heart, the Doctor did not try to set the legs. Because of the extent of the wound, amputation was needed, but because of his weakened condition, it was delayed. Within a day or two, he died.7 He was buried on April 2, 1910 in St. Patrick Cemetery, Marshall County, Illinois.4,8
