January 20, 1894 Arkansas Gazette He is listed in a directory of Warren businesses in the Arkansas Gazette: M. T. Gill, hardware, tin shop, stoves and agriculture implements, dating from 1881, is a succession of Gill & Hankins who began here in 1879, both members after a partition of the firm being regarded as successful as the original house. He is from Tennessee to this State. Has lived in Arkansas since 18?5 [cannot read the third digit] and antedating 1879 had been trained to business under C. L. Burks, banker, formerly general merchant, Monticello, Ark. He is of the quite order of men and in consequence of his reticence, as one may say his deliberation, coupled to accurate observations, would be extremely good authority if one desired facts pertaining to business affairs of the town and county.
