Marriage record has first name listed as Permenes.
P. M. Scott was born in Leavenworth, Indiana March 3, 1847. He came to this county about the year 1883 and has made Albion his home ever since.
Soon after his coming here he became acquainted with Miss Alga Smith whom he married December 18, 1884 and with whom he lived happily to the day of his death.
He took up as his business an agency with the Phenix Insurance Company, and has stayed by it persistently. For several years he had eight counties in his territory. Last year he had the time of his life. He visited several large cities, among them Chicago. Here he was taken in hand by the Phenix Company, accorded every courtesy by the company at their headquarters, and was shown many of the sights in that great city. It came to notice here that in point of service, 33 years, he was the oldest man in the company, except one whose time was 35 years. His standing with his company was first class.
During the noted Lyon-Patterson meeting here, about 11 years ago, he was converted. From that time on he has tried to serve his Master. He erected the family altar and from his table he thanked God for the food before him. Clear to the last his last night on earth, he was found on his knees supplicating a throne of grace.
He was always with those advocating the reforms, temperance being almost a hobby with him. He anticipated the need of those depending on him, hence carried a policy in the Modern Woodmen of America. He was a charter member of the camp here. He had not been in the best of health, but was still busy with his affairs.
He got up as usual Tuesday morning and ate a hearty breakfast. His wife was busy about her household cares and thinking she heard some unusual noise, stepped into the bedroom and saw him lying across the bed. He could not speak to her. She called the doctor at once, and he came quickly, but it was too late. Scarcely half an hour from the enjoyment of his meal till he was gone.
Besides his heart broken wife, he leaves two sisters in Indiana, and a brother, a minister in Maine, to mourn his demise.
Funeral services were from the Congregational church Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, the sermon by Rev. Riegor, of Petersburg and the memorial by D. J. Poynter. The body was interred in Rose Hill.
