Obituary - Chenango Union, Mar. 12, 1885
South Otselic: George Lamb, of this village, who has been a sufferer from disease of the kidneys from 1864 (the result of a wound in the loins while in the army) died March 8th. Dr. Crumb made an examination of the body and found ulceration of the left kidney, which was filled with pus. The right kidney was far advanced with the same disease. The bladder was about the size of a pear and badly inflamed. It is one of those cases where the medical profession can only say, "How did he live so long?" His funeral will be attended on Wednesday, by the Masonic fraternity, with an escort from the Grand Army Post.
