This hand operated well pump, is located under an arbor, near the center of the Linden Cemetery. According to my research of the corroded faded markings, it was manufactured by the Deming Co. of Salem, Ohio. After pumping the handle a few times, water came out of the spout.

Linden Cemetery, established in 1929, is located just outside of the town of Linden, in Montgomery County, Indiana.
