A Good Man Gone -- Esq. A. J. Myers, a prominent figure of Worthington tp. and of Richland county, yielded up all there was of earth and went home to his Maker last Saturday morning, about 2 a.m., after a very long and lingering siege of lung trouble, being perfectly rational and patient to the very last.
The funeral of this noble man, whose life is well worthy emulation by the very large concourse of sympathizing friends in attendance who wished to show him homage, took place on Tuesday, April 4, 1893, at 11 a.m., from the family residence, under the auspices of Lucullus Lodge, No 121, K. of P., of which deceased was a charter member, assisted by Sturges Lodge, No. 357, I.O.O.F. and Samuel Bell Post, No. 536, Department of Ohio, G.A.R., and accompanied by a large number of brothers from abroad belonging to above orders. The very neat casket and its honored remains were borne to the M. P. Church with the highest honors at the command of these noble orders, where a most fitting funeral sermon was delivered over the remains by Rev. Hissey, of Zanesville. At the close of which Attorney L. C. Mengert, of Mansfield, made a few short and very eulogistic remarks. This latter, we believe, was in keeping with a particular request of the deceased before he died.
After the services at the church had been gone through with the funeral cortege was again taken up, when the remains were borne to the cemetery on the hill where they were given a last earthly home by the orders named.
Adam Jamison Myers was born in Jefferson tp., Oct. 6, 1841. He enlisted at Bellville, Sept. 1, 1861, as a private in Co. H, 59th New York Voluntary Infantry. He was afterward made corporal, and April 11, 1864, he was transferred to Co. A, 14th Reg., Veteran Reserve Corps. He was a faithful soldier and quit the army with an honorable discharge. At the time of his death he was Justice of the Peace and had been for several years. He will be greatly missed by the community in which he lived. He is survived by his wife and one grown son, Thomas B.
