(Probably in the week of September 25, 1886.
William Gamblin was born in Catoosa County, North Georgia, 12 November 1843. He professes
religion at Mastons campground before the war, and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South. After the war, that church being destroyed and the membership scattered, he united with
the church at Blackwells Chapel.
He moved to Pope County, Arkansas, bringing his church certificate with him and cast his lot
with the church at Russelville, where he lived a consistent member until 25 September 1886,
when he was called to rest from his labors. his little son, Joseph Franklin, 9 years, five months
and ten days old, preceded him to the spirit world just fifteen days, having died 10 September,
1886. When Jodie died, he said in his tears of sorrow, "He is gone; nor can i call him back but i
can go to him," little thinking that he would go so soon. -- S. S. Key
