Belding Home News, 29 Jan 1880

George Marshall Hambrook died at his father’s residence in Chicago on Friday
evening, Jan. 23, 1880, of consumption.

George was born Aug. 5, 1860, and until 1876 he was a stout, hearty and robust
boy.  At that time, he was taken with bleeding of the lungs, and had a severe
time of it.  But this difficulty was overcome and he regained his usual health.
 After a time he became a little careless, and was again taken with the lung
difficulty.  He then came to Belding, thinking that the change from city to
country life would be beneficial to him.  He took charge of R.T. Hambrook &
Co.’s books at their factory here, and continued as their bookkeeper until
failing health caused him to return home in the early part of December last.  He
was next to the youngest of a family of five children.  The literary society at
this place have reason to mourn his loss, for he was an earnest worker in its
welfare from its organization until his return to Chicago.  George leaves a
large circle of friends in Belding, as his upright and manly principles were
proof of his goodness of heart.
