Mrs. N. K. Gamblin, after an illness of nearly two years passed away Sept. 20.  She was an old McCulloch County resident, having moved here in 1877.  Then a widow with five children, she settled on a small farm of 160 acres of land, which she afterwards pre-empted and lived upon until her children all were grown and married.  By this time, Berry, her youngest son was widowed by the death of his wife, and with three small children.  His dear and good old mother came to his rescue, took charge of the little ones and kept house for him and reared them.  Each one of these now is grown up and married and have families of their own.  They are Mrs. Claude Knight, Calhoun Gamblin and Mrs. Homer Brown.
    Her own five children were present when the end came.
