news* of his death the following day
came as a distinct shock to the com-munity.
Although he had been feeling bad-ly
for several days, Dr. Grimsley con-tinued
to call upon his patiouts until
Wednesday at noon, when he was
forced to go to bed. Brother physi-cians
called on him during the after-noon,
and an examination disclosed
the fact that Dr, Gjtau£ar was sut-uring
from blood poisoning.
His condition continued to grow
more serious, and Thursday Dr. J. E.
Stokes, of Salisbury, and Dr.Stewart
McGuire, of Richmond, were called in
consultation. Friday ni-.ht Dr. Grims-ley
was removed to the hospital,
where an operattion was peiformed
in the desperate hope of saving the
patient's life. Dr. Grinis ey rallied
from the opera;ion, and for a few
hours the slight hope was entertain-ed
that h^ would recover, but befoie
noon Saturday it was seen Hint the
end was only a question of lime. Dr.
Grimsley died as he had lived—calm-ly
and unafraid.
Dr. Grimsley had resided In Greens
boro a little over six years, moving
to this city from Greene county in
January. 1903. He quickly establish-ed
himself in the community, and
without te.nin; effort on his part,
made fast friends of all wi h whom
he came ln contact. Soon after com-ing
to Greensboro he formed a part-nership
for the practice of medl.lr.e
with Dr. Edmund Harrison No man
stood higher in the ranks of the med-ical
profession and no physician in
Greens'oro was held In higher es-teem
by his patients and friends thau
was Dr. Grimsley.
Dr. Grimsley was born in Greens
county in 1859 and was a son of the
late Dr. William E. Grimsley, a well
known physician and plante.-. Afler
receiving his education and being li-censed
as a pliysiian. he located at
Snow Hill, where he built up a large
and lucrative pra;tlce and where he
r sided until his removal to Greens
boro.
He was married to Miss Annie
Laurie McDou^al, o" Greene county,
who survives him. together with four
daughters and two sons. In add Con,
he Is survived by the following broth-ers
and sisters: Messrs. John D. and
William E. Grimsley, of Greene CO n-1
ty; Mr. George A. Grimsley. of this
city; Mrs. T. L. Booth, of Oxford;
Mrs. C. C. Taylor and Misses Stella
and Alice Grimsley. of this city.
The funeral was held from the
First Presbyteian church Monday af-ternoon
at 1 o'clock, the service be-ing
conducted by Rev. Thomas G.
Faulkner, rector o' St. Barnabas
Episcopal church, pastor of the de-ceased,
assisted by Rev. Melton
Clark, of the Fist Pres' yterian
church. The crowd was one of the
largest that his attended a luneralin
Greensboro in a long While. The spa
clous auditorium of th • church was
filled to overflowing and many peo-ple
were turn >d away. The floral of-ferings
were among th:- most numer-ous
and beautiful ever seen here.
After the Epis opal burial soi vice
had been concluded at Greene Hill
cemetery, the body was Interred with
.Masonic honors. The pall bca ers
were: Dr. E. R: Michaux. Dr. ('. W.
Banner, and Messr.s R. F. Dalton,
E. J. Justice, R. J. Mebane, J. E.
Latham, W. B. Harrison and U'eldon
Schenck. Tha physicians and drug-gists
of the city, th? Masons, the
Elks and the Knights of Pythias, of
which orders the deceased was a
member, formed an honorary es:ort.

During the funeral hour the drug
stores of tha city were closed out of
respect to the memory of Dr. Grims-ley.

tensued after a few houis of intense
suffering. The woman was fearfully
burned, the flesh peeling off from dif-ferent
parts of the body.
By vigilant work the firemen man-aged
