November 29, 1885
"While 500 people listened to John Connolly's temperance lecture in a hall at Minooka Friday night, the floor gave way and 200 of the audience were precipitated into the cellar, 8 feet below. When all were got out it was found that a daughter of Peter Mullen had a broken leg and many were bruised and scratched, but no one was serious injured."
