Hello Mike and List,

Mike asked "Is there other evidence that two boys were killed in 1896 by =
a meteorite? I was under the impression that there were no reported case=
s of people being killed by meteorites."

This article dates pretty close to the time of our "Meteorite Fiend". Th=
e late 1800's saw several newspaper articles about meteorites hitting peo=
ple, houses and the like that do not appear to be true. These were artic=
les that mostly surfaced from some institution like the associated press.=
  =20

You can read more this Meteorite Fiend here in this old newspaper article=
...

And find several examples of his handy work here...

I have about 70+ old newspapers articles I need to transcribe and hope to=
 find time to update the site soon. At about 450 pages now, it has been =
growing quite well, and is likely the largest meteorite related website. =
Even still, if anyone has any meteorite newspaper articles you do not see=
 posted on my website let me know.
