Edgefield Advertiser Wed May 27, 1896

Col. Samuel C. Strom

This aged and highly esteemed citizen died at his home
near Gilgal church on Monday of this week, aged nearly
eighty-four years. On yesterday he was buried in the
cemetery adjoining the church, and within a stone's throw
of his life-long residence. Deceased was an honest man, 
the noblest work of God, and belonged to a generation
who believed that labor is worship and that to pay debts
and to speak the truth are of the cardinal virtues. For many
years he had been a member of Gilgal Baptist church and
died in the faith, with the hope and trust that all was well
with his soul. A widow three sons and one daughter, and
a large number of grandchildren, are left to perpetuate
the name and virtues of this deceased patriarch.
