nEATH OF NIMMONS _ +
SHOCKS BAMBERt; i
: ' V jj
BAMBERG, S. C? Nov. 11-41
"Gus" Nimmons is deadr No
sadder piece of news has been .
heralded throughout Bamberg
county in a good vtfiile. Gus was
a Bamberg County negro, than
whom no better citizen .lived in
the Gounty, acording to his lights
His life is a splendid example of_
what thrift, honosty, ihte'grityand
good citizenship can accomplish
for am person.
Gus was taken sick several
weeks ago, and his death came
as no surprise. - Sunday morn-i
-jrtg^-atr six o'clock*- he~breathed
his last, and his mortal remains"
were laid to rest Monday after-!
noon.
r In his early manhood Gus
bought a smaR- tract ctfdandfrom
J. B.. Roacti, jof Sumter,,
paying a small amount.cash and.
wonting tne balance ot of the;;
land. It took him six or seven *
years to pay out, but when that !
was accompllished he-bought ,
other lland, and continued to buy
until his holdings amounted to J
300 or 400 acres of as fine land'
as there are in the county. Du-:1
ring^good ye^-s^t was^a^ommon j
tori to the acre on an average
He lived frugally*r-to frugally
for one of ~tiis means?but ,he j
was unostentatious, and he se-1
cured nb pleasure from "blowing
in" his money. He lived comfortably,
but he watched his^
pennies as most people watch:
their dollars. He amassed a;
cnnsiderabllo fnrtnnn, ?nrl irnn
estimated to be >worth Irom.$lu,
000 to $50,000. He lost heavily
in bank failures in the county,
but while the losses must have i
struck him keenly, he was never *
heard to murmur^?-Curing the j
World War he was a loyal sup-'
porter of his government, and i
bought freely and cheerfully of
government securities. He amazeU
many people by paying
all gash for his stamps and'
bonds, while other^ were taking
advantage of partial payments.
?Gus was a lifelong church man
and a~ "had j
been a deacon of Eden Baptist j
Church for thirty seven years," |
and he never allowed anything i
to interfere With his church du- 1
ties, He was noted locally as ^
being the man who never asked \
or accepted 'credit?after his i
lands were paid for. He paid 1
spot cash for his groceries and ^
fervm supplies, and his advice to 3
young men was always to pay j
He is survived by his widow \
j
a very thrifty woman, to whom <
ho- gave a large measure-of-ere?(
dit-for his sueeess, and- several c
children, some?in -eollege, and <
some in business for themselves c
He has-raised"a good family of"<
children, he also has several ?
brothers in the community, all ?
of whom are good men and wor- ?
thy citizens, all getting along, ;j
well in life. Gus held the re- ^
spect of the white people and ?
when he was once asked if he ?
ever had trouble with whittr?
folks, he laughed and rediculed -4
the idea. He said he Tiad never r
had any trouble with anybody, ?
and especially friends. Another r
tiling he was especially proud of c
was that he had never been in- c
volved in any sort of law su\t or 5
cburt proceedings. He minded c
kin Vviioi v?Af*n r\ nlm
I 4 A ?> KJ V> A 1 tfiAU ^
any man in Bamberg county C
that Gus Nimmons was an hon- 5
orable, upright, christian citizen s
a man who meant something to jj
his county and community.
