On This Date in Minnesota History: December 15

December 15, 1904 – Blowing her nose too hard caused the death of Mary Meilke, a 15-year-old girl living near St. Charles, Minn. The violent effort produced hemorrhage of the brain. This was the finding of Coroner Muir, who investigated the case. The girl was dressing for school when her sudden death occurred. Shae had been suffering from a cold.
