   DR. DAVID B. STROUT was born in Durham 5 April 1814. He was the only dentist
that ever practiced in Durham. He was well known in Auburn and Lewiston where he
lived many years. No one was better acquainted with the old inhabitants and
folk-lore of the town. He was Captain of one of the early militia companies. His
memory retained many interesting items of personal and family history, and he
knew how to relate them entertainingly. He was from youth a firm believer in the
doctrines of Universalism and was always ready for a controversial argument. The
cause of Temperance found in him an ardent and constant advocate. He died in
Lewiston 25 Jan. 1890.

   He married, 28 Nov. 1839, Jane B. Lufkin of Pownal, daughter of Joseph and
Patience (Bartol) Lufkin. She died 26 Feb. 1898. A daughter, Amanda Jane, died
at the age of five years. Another daughter, Priscilla Ellen, born 4 Nov. 1840,
married Wm. Fred. Rowe and lives in Lewiston.
