Sept 29, 1920 David's brother Elam located and visited David's grave. He wrote about it in his diary. He said, "...gathered fallen leaves from Brother's grave and placed a rose bush spray on the grave by the headstone.
No rumor of the Foe's advance,
Now swells upon the wind:
No troubled thought at midnight haunts
Of loved ones left behind."
