Hamilton, formerly of Fallston, but for a number of years past a resident of Bel Air, died suddenly on Wednesday night, aged 66 years. The circumstances surrounding Mr. Hamilton's death were as touching as they were tragic. As chaplain of Wann Post, G. A. R. (Grand Army of the Republic- Civil War veteran fraternity) he was conducting the commitment services over the remains of a dead comrade, Mr. James Grafton, at Deer Creek M.P. Church, when during the final prayer he hesitated and was unable to finish it. At first thinking that he was numbed from the cold, friends almost immediately discovered his critical condition and helped him into the church when it was discovered that his left side was paralyzed. Dr. Van Bibber was quickly summoned and found that a blood vessel had been ruptured over his right eye. Tender hands made him as comfortable as possible until death came near midnight the next evening. Mr. Hamilton leaves a widow, four daughters, Mrs. Sarah Bennett and Mrs. John F. Watters, of Parsons, W. Va., Mrs. Estelle Dick, of Bel Air, and Miss Emma G. Hamilton, of Philadelphia, and two sons, Joseph E. and Frank G. Hamilton. He was a member of the one hundred and first regiment Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry and was in active service from 1863 to 1865. His funeral services will take place from the M.E. Church, Bel Air, at 11 o'clock Saturday morning, interment at Friendship M.E. Church, near Fallston. (Punlished in The Aegis, March 10, 1911)
