From the January 29 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

“New Albany, Ind.–Patrick McCarty, living at Hamburg, Clark County, had a narrow escape from being buried alive. He had been ill with the grip for several days and to all appearances died yesterday. The remains were prepared for burial and a coffin was ordered. While waiting for the undertaker to arrive, Mrs. McCarty was startled by seeing the body slightly move. The other members of the family were summoned and by the use of restoratives the supposed dead husband and father showed the most positive signs of life. He had been greatly reduced in strength by the grip, and animation was suddenly suspended.”
