May 3, 1860 North Carolina Argus DEAD -- GEORGE W. DAVIS, a prominient commission merchant of Wilmington, died in that city on the 29th ult., from a chronic inflamation of the brain. He was a man of great enterprise, unwearied industry and uncommon business talent, contributing more, perhaps, than any of his contemporaries to developing the resources and forwarding the commercial interests of his native place, especially in the West India trade. He was a man of great kindness of heart -- prompt and ready to aid the distressed and unfortunate, or to assist the desrving young man struggling to build up a buisness connection.
