On Sunday Mr. Gorman ate heartily of roasting ears, from which he suffered a severe attack of cramps resulting in death as stated above. Mr. Gorman was born in Ireland, and came to this country when a mere boy, landing in New York, and shortly afterwards coming to Cumberland. He was among the most energetic and successful boatmen during the prosperous days of the canal, and was universally liked, being a man of most kindly instincts and generous impulses, and his sudden end came as a shock to a large circle of friends. During the last three years he suffered severe domestic afflictions, losing his wife and two daughters, Annie and Leota, by death. The surviving children are Mrs. Gibson Kight, South Cumberland; Mrs. P. H. Long, Misses Sadie and Hilda Gorman, and John and Arthur Gorman. Outside of his immediate family, Mr. Gorman had no relatives in this country. He was a member of St. Patrick's Catholic church. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made.
