When eleven years of age bis father
moved to Savannah,' where the boy
began his printing career In the of
fice of the Evening Journal, later com
pleting his trade In Charleston. In
1859 he returned to Savannah and
became one of the proprietors of the
Evening Express, his first newspaper
venture. In 1861 he entered the
Confederate service, with the Ogle
thorpe Light Infantry, as one of the
companies of the Flrtit Volunteer
Regiment of Georgia, which became
part of the Eighth Georgia under
Bartow. He was severely wounded
nossas and honorably dis-
I charged from the service. In 1867 he
became proprietor of the Savannah
Morning News, then a weak paper
with little Influence or business. Un
der his administration It flourished
and was developed Into one of the
finest newspaper proi>ertlcs in the
South, Influential as woll r.s highly
profitable. During hjs thirty years
ownership and management of the
News Col. Estill was ever true to the
Democratic party, to Georgia and to
the South. His paper was a great In
strument In directing attention to
the possibilities of developement In
South Georgia. He was actively Iden
tified with many successful enter
prises In Savannuh. For some years
ho had been commander of La fay-
ette McLaws Camp, U. C. V. For
twenty-nine years he had been pres
ident and the most active of the Urn
ion Society and its orphanage, Be-
thesda, near Savannah, where over
one hundred orphan boys are cared
for. He was a mason of high stand
ing. His two races for Governor are
well remembered. In his death Geor
gia has lost one of her most .devoted
sons and South and Southwest Geo
rgia a friend whose efforts in behair
of their upbuilding were ceaseless,
intelligent and highly successful.
