Son of Andrew Jackson Gambill

George W. Gambill died in the Dallas sanitarium at Dallas. His health failed several months before he went to the sanitarium for examination and treatment. He was accompanied to Dallas by his wife and daughter, but as the sufferer appeared to be comfortable, Mrs. Gambill and Miss Mary Eva came home Monday night. Tuesday the physicians in the sanitarium phoned that Mr. Gambill had had a very bad night and was not doing well, and members of his family left at once for Dallas. Mr. Gambill passed away about 5 o'clock in the afternoon. George W. Gambill was born near Honey Grove. His father was A.J. Gambill, a pioneer settler of this section. Deceased was reared here and spent all of his life here with the exception of a few years when he worked in western Texas. Early in life he became connected with the lumber business, and for more that twenty-five years had been manager of a lumber yard in Honey Grove. For many years deceased had been a member of the Presbyterian church, to which he was loyal and helpful. Had this writer been asked to name the most useful citizen of Honey Grove, he would, without hesitation, have named George Gambill. He served his city as Commissioner for many years. It fills us all with sadness when we think of this useful man being called away in the prime of life. Mr. Gambill's health failed about six months ago, his ailment baffling the skill of the best physicians. Gradually he weakened and lost until he was but the shadow of his former self, but yet he smiled on and gave to the world a happy face and words that cheered. May the God of all comfort sustain and befriend the bereaved loved ones in their loneliness and sorrow.
