- Death Announcment (Evening Recorder, Amsterdam, New York, Thursday, December 7, 1944)
ST. JOHNSVILLE, Dec. 7. -- Sergeant Elwood Dempster, 27, of Lassellsville, was killed in action in France on October 24, according to a War Department telegram received by his wife a few days ago.
Sgt. Dempster was first reported missing in action on that date, his wife getting that telegram on November 7. The word that he was missing came almost exactly one year after his entrance into the Amry, for he was sworn in on November 6, 1943. The second telegram stated that he had met death on the date on which he first was said to have been missing.
The Lassellsville man received his training at Camp Upton and Camp Blanding, Fla. He was granted a furlough last March, and upon his return reported at Fort George G. Meade, Md. He went overseas shortly afterward, was in England for a while, and participated in the invasion of Normandy. He was at Cherbourg, and had written of being in the vicinity of Paris.
Mrs. Dempster said that her husband had written that he had received two bronze stars for participation in two major battles. He also stated in one letter that he had suffered a minor wound, although not serious enough to keep him from action, and he expressed belief that he probably would receive the Purple Heart, Mrs. Dempster said. His last letters were dated just prior to the date on which he met death.
From the fact that he was first listed as missing, it is assumed that death was from subsequent wounds, rather than from the ones to which he referred in his letter.
On October 15 he was promoted from private first class to sergeant. It is assumed that some extraordinary service prompted such promotion, without the intermediate step of being made corporal, although he did not explain in his letters.
Elwood Dempster was born in Scotch Bush, Town of Ephratah, on April 5, 1917, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Myron Dempster. He attended the schools in that community and worked for a while for the New York Central Railroad, in this village, and later for the Fulton County Highway Department, by which he was employed at the time of his entrance in service.
On February 8, 1937, he was married to Marietta Quackenbush, a former Dolgeville girl. He is survived by his wife in Lassellsville and his parents in Scotch Bush; one brother, Joel Dempster, in Scotch Bush; and four sisters, Mrs. Florence Frasier, Palatine Bridge; Miss Dorothy Dempster, at home, and Mrs. Bertha Fisher and Miss Bessie Dempster, both in Gloversville.

William DeNure, a glove worker employed by John Snell of Gloversville. who resides on the Johnstown-
Caroga lake road, was fatally wounded and passed away shortly after receiving the discharge of a shot gun, alleged to have been in the hands of Guy Phillips, another resident of that locality, about 9:30 last night.
According to a statement made by Phillips the shooting and killing of the man was accidential. After the shooting Phillips and others came to Johnstown in an automobile after a doctor and later Phillips gave himself up to Sheriff Robert Brewer. He was locked up at the county jail last night to await further investigation.
Phillips and DeNure were friends so far as could be learned and investigation conducted by Coroner Joslin, Sheriff Brewer and Chief Joyce last night failed to disclose any motive for the shooting, It is stated. Chief Joyce was one of the first to arrive at' the place and found DeNure dead lying on the floor.
The investigation last night brought out from Phillips that he was asleep on a couch in one of the rooms, when DeNure came in and grabbed him. Phillips alleged he was drowsy and a shot gun standing by the side of the wall was grabbed. In the scuffle the gun was exploded. Phillips also claims that he then went to a neighbors and a Mrs. Caldwell took the gun from him and a paper shell fell on the floor.
Phillips then went to Tom Lenegrln's and it is stated Phillips stated he had shot a man and he wanted to get a doctor. They started for Johnstown to get a doctor according to the statement and found Chief Joyce who accompanied them back to the house.
Chief Joyce who accompanied the party back went to the place where he found DeNure lying on the floor face down. He was dead when the chief arrived. In the meantime Officer Laird and Cowles had notified the Sheriff's office and First Deputy Wesley Jones left for the scene and Sheriff Brewer also followed in his car. Chief Joyce as soon as he discovered the man was dead sent for Coroner J. W. Joslin who was also quickly on the scene and started an investigation.
An examination of DeNure showed that practically the entire charge from one shell of the shot gun had entered the abdomen at close range, the abdomen was laid open for some distance exposing the inside. It is believed that death was almost instantaneous.
Coroner. Josiin ordered the body removed to the C. A. Bucbanan Undertaking parlors to be prepared for burial. Coroner Josiin had not completed bis investigation last night and could not give his verdict in the case.
Phillips after giving what information he did surrendered to Sheriff Brewer and was locked up.
According to Phillips he had the firearms, which was a double barrel shot gun handy to bunt woodchucks. It was stated by one of the investigators that he did not deny the shooting but claimed it to have been accidential. There was but one shell in the gun according to reports.
The shooting took place in one of-the rooms on the ground floor of the building which is located about a mile and a half or so on the lake road after leaving the Rockwood and lake junction on the lake road. The place conducted by Phillips was among those raided by Federal Prohibition men some time ago.
Both Phillips and DeNure are well known. The dead man is said to have resided in Gloversville at different times, but was now a resident of that section although he worked in Gloversville.
DeNure was born In Gloversville the son of Stewart DeNure and Jane Getman DeNure. He had resided tn Gloversville for a number of years having moved recently to the place on the lake road.
Besides his wife the survivors are one half brother and two sisters, Mrs. Charles Strobeck and Mrs. Myron Dempster, of Scotch Bush.
