Jackson Argus – Butts County, April 1, 1898 
The death of George W. Castellaw, of near this place is a source of grief to 
many a heart.

After a lingering and trying illness George W. Castellaw died at his home near 
Locust Grove on Monday morning the 25th, instant.  He passed away quietly, yet 
exultantly in the triumph of the Christian’s faith (although he was not a 
member of any church) and there is not a doubt in the minds of those who knew 
him that he entered into the “rest and remaineth to the people of God”.

All his brothers and sister and his mother were with him at the time of his 
death.

As a citizen, Mr. Castellaw was in many respects a model.  He was a prosperous 
and progressive farmer, a leader of thought and action in his community and a 
man of large influence in his section.

Twill be many days before his place can be filled in secular relations.

He has been married twice but both wives have preceded him in the glory land 
and eternal rest.  He has three daughters living.  His funeral was conducted by 
Dr. I. L. Gunter, pastor of Bersheba church.

His remains were tenderly laid away in the church burying ground, to await the 
voice of the archangel and the trump of God on the resurrection morn I behalf 
of a devoted, bereaved mother and loving children and a host of relatives, 
neighbors and friends with a weeping heart we bid you all a loving farewell to 
meet in the glorious resurrection of the just, in a sweet home to “die no more.”
