    • Bill Weidert wrote 'John Peter was gored to death by his favorite bull. My Dad said that John Henry Weidert had warned him to stay out of the pen with that bull on a visit back to Rasselas shortly before John Peter Weidert's death. He had a small dog that bit the bull on the nose and hung on to keep the bull away from his master. By that time, it was too late.
