In all the relations of life the subject of this notice was remarkably exemplary, discharging every duty with the utmost fidelity. As the head of his family he was a kind and provident parent, an affectionate and devoted husband. As a friend, warm-hearted and generous; as a neighbor, given to hospitality. Diligent in business as a citizen, his intercourse with his fellow-man was marked with the strictest integrity. As a politician, he was active and prominent in his party, just and courteous to his opponents; he has filled more than one office in this county; the last of which was that of County Commissioner, which he filled with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the friends who elected him. We most cordially sympathise (sic) with the numerous friends of the deceased in this their sad bereavement, feeling that not only they but the community at large have by his death sustained a serious loss."

Nelle's research stated that this Lemuel isn't the same as the Lemuel that was born 15 May 1805. It did have though that he was a son of James and Rebecca Offutt. That conclusion has been disproven by the research of Malissa Ruffner, and he has since had his parents corrected to Archibald and Jane (Odle) Offutt as well as correcting his date of birth and adding a date of death on February 25, 2017.6,7,8
