Accidental Poisoning of the Cullen children
John Cullen usually took his wheat to Wallace & Hibbits mill in Muncie to be ground into flour. It seems that the Cullens had gone away for a few days visit. On return, within a few days, the small children became very ill and died. It was presumed that rats had carried arsenic into the flour bin and of course the flour was used to make biscuits, causing the children to die.
