Of the men cloesly indentified to and who by their genius, ability and public spirit have helped to create and build up our community no one will be more thoroughly missed than John Gilmore who died Friday even4ng July 10, 1908. For several months he has been in failing health but although frequently confined to his bed for brief periods be has rallied. About two weeks ago, however, his illness took a more serious turn and for the first time he lost hope. Believing that the end was not far off he so informed his family and friends and made every preparation for the Inevitable. He was born at Smithland, Kentucky July 3, 1S23. When two or three months old his parents moved to Preble Ohio, settling on a farm where the family resided till 183G. In the latter year they removed to Putnam county, Indiana. making ther! fvjome on a farm in Washington township. While there the deceased attended a school at Putnamville taught by an educated man from New England named Wakefield. After a years course there he returned to Ohio and completed his education at an academy near the village of Fairhaven. For a year following ho himself taught school
there.
In 1845 he was back in this county again and for a great many years taught school in the Old Seminary In Greencastle. He built a school house of his own near Hamricks Station and taught till the advent of free schools in 1852. Later he taught for a brief period in a building located on the corner of Hanna street and College Avenue in Greencastle. Among his pupils being Mayor Hays and General Jesse M. Lee and Wil-
liam R. Grogan.
From 1850 to 18G0 he served two
terms as county treasurer. From 1801 to ’G7 l^e resided on his farm near
Hamricks Station. In 18G8 he was j again elected county treasurer for ! Ii ' AK5,!S SAI,R—
one term. From 189 1 to 1901 he was treasurer of Greencastle. From then
and until disabled by sickness and , at arre , 4 (Wn . n( i iu v.. ft rB r Vlm^ 8 advancing years he was in the Insur-IJ'' r ''’fOc for nmpaand circu-

The life of John Gilmore was,
perhaps as closely interwoven with the history of this city and this county, asthe life of any man who ever lived here. As edueator, citizen. leader of local politics and director of local political methods, fe*v men have exerted a wider influence than he. It is said of him that he had a wider acquaintance than any other man In Putnam county. Not only was his acquaintance large but it covered a wide range of years. His boyhood went back to the time when Putnamvllle was the metropolis and Intellectual center of the county. In those days a considerable number of schollarly men had settled In Warren townships near Putnamvllle, these men were famed far
and near for their education. Later, by gradual stages Mr. Gil-
more entered local politics. In this
lino lie achieved suecess. What L
politieal enemies then said of him has long been hurried. That he stood sufficiently well with the voters of Putnam county to be twice elected treasurer on the Republican ticket, breaking the seldom broken series of Democratic victories prpved his popularity. It is to be remem-
