Ashland Progress
Anniston, Ala., Dec. 28. funeral services were held at Providence Church, in 
Clay County, Tuesday for Robert Gamell, 11, who was accident by struck on the 
head with piece of wood and died of the injuries in a hospital here. The Gamell 
child was struck with a piece of wood which was thrown by his brother at a mule.

Apr-1922
Gay Gamel, the 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Gamel, died at their home a 
short distance east of Ashland Sunday night after a brief illness. He was 
stricken with appendicitis a few days ago and on Saturday submitted to a 
surgical operation in an effort to save his life, but it failed to prove 
successful.

Master Winston Gavin Gamel, son of Rev. and Mrs. W. R. Gamel was born July 28, 
1906, and died at his father's home, about one mile east of Ashland, on the 17th 
of April 1922, after about a week's illness. He was buried at Providence church, 
near Delta. Funeral services were conducted by the writer. He was converted at 
Shiloh church in August 1919, during revival services. He had never joined any 
church but gave the brightest evidence of his future happiness. He was conscious 
up until the last and called his parents to his bedside and told them he was 
going to die and that all was well with him, and so he died. To us it seems that 
his death was premature, but to God it is not so. In the few years he had filled 
his mission and rounded out his life. God, seeing it was best, he permitted the 
death stroke to come and remove him from earth to heaven. To the family 
especially his death is sad, but those who believe in God and his word, knows 
that it is all for the best. So may Him that doeth all things well give the 
blessings to them that they are so much need in the sad hour of trouble. W. M. 
Garrett.
