OBITUARY..

Departed this life, December 2lst,
1879, in Morgantown, West Virginia,
Mrs. CLARIssA EVANS, aged II years,
6 months and 10 days.
Mrs. Evans was long q widow, her
husband having preceded her to the
grave eleven years last September.
She WAS the mother Of two children,
daughter who lived with her and a
son who resides in Oregon. In 1849
she connected herself with the Cum
berland Presbyterian Church; her
husband and daughter uniting with
her at the same time. Afterward
she lifted her letter from this Church,
and, April, 1874, became connected
with the Presbyterian Church OF
Morgantown.
Ever since she profcssed her faith
in Christ, she continued to evidence
her union with Him and interest in
His cause.
Mrs. Evans was woman Of marked
character and influence; possessed
of strong mind, excellent sense,
great prudence and wisdom. She
was greatly afflicted for over year,
yet patiently and calmly bore her
sufferings, not murmur or COM
plant escaped from her lips. And
never for a moment, scarcely, was
her heart clouded and troubled with
a spiritual doubt-always assured of
her trust in her Savior. For months
she was peacefully waiting the call
Of her Master to come up higher;
fearless and undisturbed as to the
issue of the disease that had been so
long wasting her strength. And at
last the lamp of life went gently out.
She faded like the morning star,
which dies not, but melts away into
the brightness Of the coming day,
Her race is run and the crown Is
gained. She will be sadly missed,
but our loss is compensated in her
eternal gain. May the mantle Of her
sanity character fall upon US all.
BLESSED are the dead which die in
the Lord from henceforth: yea, saith
the spirit, that they may rest from
their labors; and their works do fol-
low them" nm
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1879-12-27

Mrs. Clarissa Evans, q most estim-
able and somewhat aged lady, died
at her residence in this place on Sun
day morning, December 2lst, after a
protracted illness. Everything that
skill and affection could devise was
tried in her behalf and her remarka-
BILE courage and vitality kept her up
long after her physicians pronounced
her on the verge of dissolution. She
preserved a calm demeanor to the last
conscious moment of her life, dying
as only those die who are at peace
with God, their fellow men and their
own consciehces. She had been for
many years an exemplary member of
the Presbyterian Church; her Christ
ian graces commanded the respect of
all and the affections of mahy.
Mrs. Evans was born June 18th
1908. She was therefore II years, 6
months and IL days of age. She
came of one of the Oldest and most
numerous families of this part of Vir-
ginia, being the daughter of Moses
and Jane Cox, and one of twenty
brothers and sisters, including half
brothers and sisters, but one of whom
we believe, Prof. Henry L. Cox,is now
resident of this County.
She was married to Rawley Evans
Dec. 10th, 1929. Her husband pre-
coded her to the grave more than
IL years. Arab Jane, her only
daughter, remaining with her to the
last, and Col. Dudley Evans, her on
ly son, who has been a resident of
Portland, Oregon, for many years.
Her remains were followed to their
last resting place in Oak Grove Gem
etery on Monday afternoon by a
large concourse of relatives and
friends.

To Our RrApERs.-This is the time


To Our READERs.-This is the time
OF the year when a great majority of
country newspapers announce that,
sin accordance with a time honored
custom there will be no newspaper is
sued from this Office next week, in
order to give all hands an opportu-
nifty to celebrate the holidays" But
with the New DOMINION it is entirely
different In justice to our subscrib-
ers we issue the NEW DOMINION eve
~ week in the year, and as an evil
dence of our high appreciation of the
very liberal and increasing patronage
of our many friends, we this week
present to them this mammoth issue
of the New DOMINION, which is the
largest paper ever printed in this
county and contains more than twice
the amount of reading matter. This
issue Of our paper If put in book form
would make pamphlet of seventy
two closely printed octave pages.
In addition to this we will issue our
paper as usual next week, thus Civ
ing our readers fifty-three papers
within the year, which is three more
papers than some tro dollar sheets
give.
Hereafter the New DOMINION will
be entirely printed at home, which
will give, US more space for local
news than we have had heretofore.
BY this means, and with our improv-
ed facilities which we have lately ad-
ded, we will begin the new year I'M
der more favorable auspices than
any new year since the paper started.
The coming year will be one of great
importance in the history of this
country. 1t will be marked by the
election of President, in which it
is hoped that fraud will not succeed
jtself; the election of Governor and
Legislature will engposs the attention
of the people of this State; the tenth
census of the United States will be
taken, which will be an epoch OF
great Importance to our people.
with these things before us, and with
renewed and encouraged zeal, we
shall strive to make a paper which
will be more than ever acceptable to
THE public. With bright prospects
for the future and pleasant recollec-
ttions of the past, we present this is
sue Of the New DOMINION to our
readers, and wish them all "a MERRY
CHRISTMAS AED A HAPPY New YEAR"

The holidays have come and the
little ones are happy over the coming
Of that time-honored old gentleman
Santa Claus-who has arrived laden
with books, candies and toys for
them This myth has been handed
down and kept alive from one gener-
.ataon to another, and it is this that
makes the holidays so enjoyable.
We love to see this superstition fos-
tered in the minds of children as the
delusion is pleasant and harmless
one and when they grow to be men
and women, they will look back to
this as the happiest period in their
lives.
