Changes

Following his discharge, Lemuel returned home to [[Wooster, Ohio]] and resumed his work for the [[Wayne County Democrat]]. In 1883, his friends wished him to become a candidate for mayor of Wooster. He was elected by a nice majority. Two years later, with the expiration of his term, he was re-elected as mayor. In 1893, he once again ran as a candidate for mayor and successfully served for three successive two-year terms. This was an honor never conferred upon a Wooster man. In all, he served as the mayor of Wooster for ten years. Lemuel Andrew Jeffries passed away at 68 years of age on June 19, 1909.
