Waverly Journal, Nov. 11, 1904

Dempsey Chase Crain was born in Waverly, Illinois, Nov. 11, 1866 and died November 4th, 1904.
Deceased was a son of the late Jno. A. Crain and spent his early years in our city. Up to the time of his death he retained the close friendship of his early associates. Although he spent the greater part of his later years in the South, Chase never forgot Waverly, and his visits to our city were always attended by marked attention from all who knew him.
He was married to Miss Ada Nichols of Alton, Ill., who, with their four children, survive to mourn his loss.
Chase was a man of fine address, was an expert accountant and an artist with a pen. His ability in this direction was attested by the fact of his having held various positions of importance and trust in his home town of Ocala, Florida, where he had his residence until failing health compelled him to take a rest and seek a change of climate.
He bore his many months of suffering with unusual fortitude and patience and cheerfully awaited the end.
His funeral was held at his home in this city and was conducted by the Rev. Robbins, pastor of the Christian church.
