- Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, August 26, 1903 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Daniel J. Clement - It is with deep regret that we chronicle the death of Daniel J. Clement, which occurred at Orwell, New York, August 9, 1903. He was born at Henderson, Jefferson County, June 8, 1838, but most of his early days were spent at Mill Haven, Ontario, his parents moving here when he was a child. After reaching his majority he returned to the home of his childhood days where he was engaged in fanning. In 1879 he was married to Mrs. Rhoda A. Prouty, of Altmar, who with three children, Herbert, Mrs. Walter Clement, of Orwell, and Walter Prouty, of Hartford, Connecticut, survive him. He is also survived by a brother and sister, who reside at Mill Haven, Ontario. He moved to Orwell some five years ago from Altmar, where at both places he was highly respected and honored by those who knew him. His strong constitution showed signs of decay a little less than five years ago, when he suffered from a severe attack of diabetes, from the effects of which he did not fully recover. The end came suddenly, as his last sickness was of very short duration. His funeral, which was largely attended, was held at his late August 12, Revs. T. G. Davies and Cross officiating. The Orwell Grange, to which he belonged, attended in a body and conducted the services at the grave. Interment in Orwell Evergreen cemetery. The departed was a man of sterling worth, honest, upright and true. His neighbors trusted him and his friends loved him and the community mourns because of his departure.
