Extract from the Darien Gazette, October 1821

Died

At Barraco,(Cuba) on the 21st of June last, after a
painful illness of four days, Doctor CHARLES
GIGNILLIAT, in the 29th year of his age, a native of
McIntosh county.

The deceased had, with exception of about the last six
months of his life, been principally a residence of the
place of his nativity-and from his unassuming conduct,
and uniform deportment, gained the respect and esteem
of all who were acquainted with him. To his immediate
relatives and friends, the afflictive dispensation of
Divine Providence will long be sensibly felt. Of him it
can be justly said that humanity, charity, integrity
and sincerity of character, were fully pourtrayed in
his intercourse with his fellow men. Possessed of a
mind highly cultivated, he bid fair to become a useful
and valuable member among the strangers whom he had
just mingled and settled with, but alas the unrelenting
hand of death has deprived them of his service and
taken him from our view, forever.
