Ref: (Ms. Ruth Mather) - Densmore, KS – Abraham Adamson was born in Ohio February 26, 1852 and departed this life Jan. 2, 1912, aged 59 years, 10 months and 6 days. He was stricken very suddenly New Year's day and Dr. Davis was called and found him in a hopeless condition with congestion of the brain.

Mr. Adamson came to Kansas in 1885 and took up a quarter section of government land and has resided there until taken to the eternal world. Although he did not make a profession of religion, he was interested in the bible and had it read to him, and he talked much on its teachings. He talked on Sunday previous to his death in regard to repenting at the eleventh hour which if he did, Jesus would not turn a truly penitent soul away.
