GLANCY, DAVID M.
(Jan 1919, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
DAVID M. GLANCY  Born at Mount Vernon, Ohio, February 20, 1842, died at
Canute, Okla., January 6, 1919, age 76 years 10 months and 16 days.  Lived
in Knox County, Ohio until he was forty years old, from there he moved to
Adair County, Iowa, where he lived 17 years moving from there to Oklahoma,
where he spent the last days of his life.
Brother Glancy was converted early in life and with his wife joined the
Congregational Church and during his early life he was known as a devout
Sunday School worker and observer of family worship and other means of
grace which so many today neglect.  At the age of twenty-two years he was
married to Miss Margaret Simons.  To them were born six children, five of
whom with his wife survive him.
D. E., W. A., and L. A. Glancy all of Canute, Okla., Mrs. Flora Thorne of
Winfield, Kansas and Mrs. O. P. Leach of Sunnyside, Washington.
At the age of fifty-five years he met with an accident which caused the
loss of his left arm.  Brother Glancy suffered a great deal during the
last years of his life from cancer of the stomach which finally caused his
death.
Having visited and prayed with him on several occasions during his last
illness, I found him often engaged in prayer and fully trusting in the
efficiency of the blood which was shed for his Redemption.  "Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord."  Rev. W. E. McWilliams.
