THE WARREN MAIL.
WARREN, WARREN CO., PA., AUGUST 20, 1908.
Thomas C. Gibson , aged 20 years , son of Thomas Gibson , of Davy Hill, was struck by a falling tree while at work in the woods near Magee Run, not far from Youngsville, Thursday, and sustained a fracture of the spinal column , from which he probably will
die. From the injury down, his body is paralyzed . He was taken to Emergency Hospital.

WALTER GIBSON, son of Thomas Gibson, of Deerfield township, who was injured some time ago by a falling tree, died at the home of his father Monday, Dec. 20.
---------------
Believe it is possible that the date of death given on the Find A Grave memorial for Thomas Clyde Gibson of 17 Dec 1909 is incorrect. Also that the archived newspaper article incorrectly identifies the deceased as Walter. I have not been able to find a Walter Gibson being son of Thomas H. Gibson & Isabel (Slater) Gibson. - Dec. 17, 1909 is a Friday and Dec. 20, 1909 is a Monday. I suppose it depends on when the news of his death was reported.
