The late Mr. C. Gee Taylor. – On Tuesday morning this eccentric old gentleman passed away, at the advanced age of 84, after an illness of about 10 days. He will be remembered as the proprietor of certain patent medicines, his interest in which he sold 25 years ago. Beneath a rough exterior there was a true sympathising heart, and his little acts of kindness, and numerous visits to the old and sick, and the infirm, told of his desire to be of some service in this day and generation. He was a teetotaller for fifty years, and a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Society for a longer period. He will be buried tomorrow (Friday) at the cemetery at three o’clock.

CHARLES GEE TAYLOR
Old Gee Taylor is dead, and with him has departed one of the oldest inhabitants, and certainly one of the characters of the town.

The old man was well known for miles around, having during his life taken an active part in sick visiting and temperance agitation, quaint in his manner, out spoken in his opinions, he offended many ,but there was a kind heart beating behind all, and many poor sick homes have missed his visits during the time he has not been so active as formerly.

"He was a rum old chap, but well meant in his intentions," is the short mode in which C. Gee Taylor's biography has been put in a single sentence. But are not the chronicles of C. Gee Taylor already written in a book which he himself published? - a characteristic of the man.
