Raleigh Minerva
Thus., July 23, 1807
DIED, on Sunday, the 19th at Warrenton, his father's summer residence, MR. 
JOHN GILMOUR, ESQ. of Halifax. He had been somewhat indisposed for some days, 
but was about and cheerful: On Sunday morning, he rode out a few miles and was 
taken on his return very ill and died a few hours afterword. He was a young 
man of talents and strictly moral; possessing a most amiable disposition and 
endearing manners, with these rare qualities he promised to be a most useful 
and respectable citizen. Having graduated at Yale College, it was here he 
formed an attachment to a young lady, who he married about a year ago: he was 
preparing to take her back to Connecticut, where they intended settling with 
her relatives. Besides a fond wife, he has left an infant child, who will 
hereafter feel the loss occasioned by his premature death. His relations will 
not be the only persons who will feel sensibly the loss; his virtues could not 
fail to endear him to all of his acquaintances.
