YANCEY FIELDS, one of the best known
colored men of St. Clairsville, died sud
denly, at his home, in the East End, last
Thursday evening, of heart failure, aged
about IL years.
Considering the disadvantages he la
bored under in his early manhood, Mr..
Fields was a man of unusual force of
character. During the war of the rebel
lion he was a fireman OIL the Ohio River,
and soon afterward located at st. Clairs-
Vile He was born free man, but strug-
gled under the disadvantages to which
his race was subjected during most of
his lifetime, and keenly felt that lack of
mental training which the more favored
white race enjoyed.
The funeral occurred on Saturday.
Rev. DR.. Hollingshead officiated, in the
absence of Rev. J. NJ. Wilkes, pastor of
the colored Church, and addressed his
listeners in manner calculated to set
them thinking Mr.. John Calvin Payne
also spoke briefly, upon invitation of DR.
HOllingshead. The remains were inter
red in the NJ. f. Cemetery. After the
coffin had been lowered into the grave
led by Mrs. Lulu Walker, Jesus, Lover
of My Soul was sung, and rarely have
we heard that sweet hymn more tenderly
sung. DR.. HOllingshead pronounced a
benedictiOn at the grave, and form so
long familiar upon the streets of St.
Clairsville was laid out OF sight forever.
BERDIE MARSHALL, the adopted
daughter of John Marshall, east of town,
died from scarlet fever, on Wednesday of
last week, in the 18th year of her age
She was a lovable little girl, and her
death was a source of great grief to the
family circle, which she lightened during
her life. The funeral of both little Clara
Schumacher and Berdie occurred on Fri
day. Services were conducted first at the
home of Mr. Chas. Schumacher, by Revs.
Alexander and Balph, and upon their
conclusion the funeral cOrtege moved to
the Marshall residence, where services
were held y the same ministers, and the
bodies were both borne to the Cemetery
by the same hearse.
