I found this on Kathy Webb's site. I believe he is son of William L & Nancy.

Lewallen, Charles H. Kicked To Death by a Mule.
We learned from a brother on the deceased that Mr. Charles H. Lewallen, of Morgan County, was kicked in the abdomen by a Mule on Saturday, March 23, receiving injuries from the effects of which he died on the night of the 24th, living only about 36 hours after the accident. Mr. L. went from Morgan to Kansas and being dissatisfied with the West returned to Morgan County and settled down to farm about a year ago, and was in comfortable circumstances. He was about 25 years of age and leaves a wife and five children. The deceased was a son of William Lewallen of this County, and his wife is the daughter of David Dickey, Esq., formerly of Beavercreek.

Rick,
Your welcome. This sure is sad. He was so young and left 5 children and a wife. Do you know where he is buried?
