Dement Lifetime Resident of Emerson Community Laid to Rest Last Sunday David Pierson Dement was born at Pond Creek, Ohio January 2, 1844 and departed this life Thursday, June 9, 1927, aged 53 years, 5 months, and 7 days. He had made his home in Emerson for the last sixteen years. At the age of eighteen, he enlisted in the U. S. Army in Company H. 22nd Ohio volunteers for a period of two years, then re-enlisted, serving in all four years. His generals were Sherman and Logan. He was in the famous March to the Sea. Her was a man who had the wind and rain in his face. At the close of the war, he retired to the old home community where he was united in marriage with Miss Nancy Justice in the year of 1866 at Pond Creek, Ohio To this union four children were born; one, a daughter, is deceased. The living children are Joel D. Jamestown, North Dakota, William C. of Ashland, Nebraska, and Jennie A. Smith of Ashland, Nebraska. His wife died November 19, 1909. There are 21 grandchildren and five great grandchildren. He was again married, the second time to Mrs. Anna Jacobs of Emerson, May 4, 1912, where they lived at the time of his death, which occurred Thursday noon just after he had come in from a bit of work in his garden. He often expressed himself as wishing to go just that way When the G.A.R. was first organized, he joined in Ohio and was always happy when he could march with the "Old Boy" and carry the flag. He was able to carry the flag on Decoration day, but said to his pastor, "This is the last Decoration Day I will carry the flag." He was one of a family of ten brothers and two half brothers, all of them gone. He will be no stranger found in the land of immorality. He walked slowly here but he will have the elastic step of the mortal athlete there. He made a profession of religion and joined the Baptist Church forty-eight years ago. Eight years later he united with the Methodist Church at Lurchwood, Iowa and upon taking up his residence in Emerson he became identified with the M. E. Church here some sixteen years ago. His wife said, "He has been a good father." He was a loyal Christian citizen. He was ready to meet his God. Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church Sunday afternoon, conducted by Rev. H. S. Mitchell. Sermon text, I Cor. 15:55 "Death where is thy sting?" A male quartet sang, Kenneth Shaw, C. L. Scott, A. F. Smith, and R. L. Fields, with Mrs. C. F. Barns at the piano. The pall bearers were members of the American Legion, K. A. Evans, Forrest Snodgrass, Geo. Thomson, Frank Oglevie, E. E. Whister, and Will Graham. The W.R.C. and A.L.A. sat in a body. Burial was made in the Emerson Cemetery. Malvern Leader, June 16, 1927, page 6 CIVIL WAR-GAR DeMENT, David P. 1844 - 09 Jun 1927 Co.B 22 OH Inf CW-GAR Emerson Cemetery
