Obituary
Cyril Gamble passed away Tuesday evening the home of his parents after a lingering illness of two and one-half years. Cyril Gamble was born in Brewster on the 3rd day of September 1901. Two and one half years ago Cyril was going to Alta Lake with a party of high school students when the Ford car they were in became unmanageable through excessive speed and run into a deep ditch overturning the car and breaking the back of Cyril. He was taken to the hospital at Pateros and later moved to his home here where he has been ever since confined to his bed. No human being will every know to what extent he suffered bodily, but true to his spartan courage never complaining taking up his cross and bearing it manfully to the very end. Funeral ceremony was held Thursday afternoon and burial was at the Locust Grove Cemetery.
He leaves a mother, father and sister, besides other relatives to mourn his end.
Cyril Gamble was of a kindly loving disposition and to know the young man was to love and respect the many sterling qualities. The many friends of the sorrowing relatives extend their sympathy to them in their hour of trouble.
