An Old Time Plymouth Boy. Mr. Charles A. Gambrill of Wellington, Kansas, has been in town a few days meeting and renewing old acquaintances and looking over the scenes of his early exploits in his boyhood days. He was the son of A. Gambrill, who built two miles of the Pennsylvania railroad in the early 50's and was born in the Gambrill House, which then stood on the ground now occupied by the Thayer Grain Warehouse, in 1855. During the past quarter of a century he has been engaged in merchantile pursuits, and according to the ways of the world, has prospered beyond most of his fellows, financially and other wise. His father's name was Arthur, but he was known and called by everybody as "Gabe Gambrill." That name was given him while he was building track on the railroad. He built cabins as occasion required and boarded the men under his employ. A tin horn was used to call them to dinner, and the men always being hungry would frequently ask him, "well, Gabriel, isn't it about time your trumpet was blowing?" From that on he was callel "Gabe Gambrill." Afterwards it served him a good purpose. During the war he was drafted into the army in the name of "Gabe Gambrill," and escaped serving by producing evidence that his name was not "Gabe" but Arthur Gambrill. Birthday Party. Mr. and Mrs. F. O. Dennison and Mr. and Mrs. Simon Finney of this city went to Culver Saturday, to attend the birthday celebration of James C. McGuire. Eleventh Birthday.
