In Memorian,

Died, on Sunday, May 81, 1893,
Clara r., wife Of George W. Mel
drum.
The above announcement carries
with it y story Of sorrow and desola-
ton brought to husband, children
and friends, and the breaking up Of a
home with all it's dear associations,
Nothing, in the history of human be-
reavement, touches a more popular
chord OF sympathy than the loss of a
mother to her young children. Such
is indeed a loss that is felt more
keenly with each succeeding year.
Clara Medium, nee Frazier, was
born in Cincinnati, o., in the year
1857. While a mere infant her par
ents emigrated to Colorado and set
tied in Denver, then a thriving vii
lage. There her childhood and girl
hood were passed and where in the
December Of 1878 she was married.
The young couple then entered upon
their new life, Colorado renamed
their homes until four years ago,
when they settled in our midst. Her
mother preceded her to the grave by
few months. A husband, three
children and four sisters are her i'm
mediate survivors, The funeral took
place from the Presbyterian church
Monday afternoon, and the large out.
pouring Of Borrowing friends gave
expression to the widespread sym
patty for the bereaved ones and their
high appreciation Of the one who is
gone.
OF a pleasing personality, and a
genial, companionable nature, Mrs.
Meldrum's home was always an at
tractlve social center and there, her
friends, ever found a cordial well
come. Possessed of unusual sweet
ness and amiability Of character, she
was slow to censure and quick to dis
cover the best in all. Although for
years great sufferer, she was pa
tient and accomplishing one and she
carried the same cheerful resignation
down into the Valley Of the Shadow
OF death.
Knowing that her end was near,
she requested that she might be laid
beside her mother, and thence, back
to her childhood's home, she was ten
derby borne by husband and children
and peacefully laid to rest Green
be the turf above thee, and sweet the
dreams Of thy last, long sleep in the
shadow of the mountains.
