The Indiana Progress  Wed, Oct 03, 1888
Gilmore O. Fink, died at his father's home, in Livermore, September 28, aged 35
years, 10 months and 5 days. His death was a sad one, being the result of an
accident which occurred in May. The deceased was sitting in his carriage, when a
span of horses behind him became frightened and unmanageable, and ran into his
vehicle, injuring his spine so seriously as to paralyze his body. He has been
confined to his bed since that time. The most distinguished physicians examined
his case and everything possible to be done for his restoration and comfort was
done by kind and loving hands; but his injury was too serious for recovery. We
said his death was sad, but it was only from a worldly stand-point. He had a
pleasant, genial disposition that won him friends wherever he went. He leaves a
tender wife and one child, his affectionate parents, and loving brothers and
sisters, who have the tender sympathy of the entire community...The body was
brought to this place on the noon train on Monday, and interred in Greenwood
cemetery. The funeral services were conducted by the A. Y. M. of which he was a
member in good standing.
