23 May 1877 The Brunswick Advertiser & Appeal; pg. 1 col. 6

	A private telegram from Milledgeville yesterday announced the death of 
Dr. Samuel G. White, one of the leading members of the medical profession, in 
his 55th year.  Dr. White had been in Savannah for a week or so and left here 
(Savannah, Georgia) for home on Friday night last.  He had been in feeble 
health for some time, and was impressed with the belief that he had not many 
days to live, but his friends, more sanguine, were unprepared for the news of 
his sudden death.  
    	Dr. White was a graduate of the Medical College of Philadelphia, was a 
surgeon of the United States Navy during the war with Mexico.  During the war 
between the States Dr. White was a surgeon of Cobb's Legion, commanded by the 
lamented and gallant General T.R.R. Cobb, who was a warm personal friend of 
the deceased.  For the past ten years Dr. White occupied the honorable 
position of President of the Medical Board of Georgia, being the successor of 
his distinguished father, Dr. Benjamin A. White, who was President of that 
Board for thirty years, and was also Surgeon General of the State of Georgia, 
and was universally esteemed as an eminent physician and a good man.  The 
deceased was Past Deputy Grand Master of Masons in Georgia.  He was born in 
Milledgeville and was about 55 years of age, and leaves a large family and a 
host of friends to mourn his loss.   SAVANNAH NEWS
