The death of Mrs. A. N. CLARK removes
from among us one who exempnied in he1
life the truest Cnris!isn spirit. Her char
aoter was one of unusual strength and
sweetness, endearing her to all. Her
cheeffulness and patience in trials and ad-
versit!es Was remarkable. She was one
always ready to assist others in kind words
ard deeds, never considering any sacrifice
too great that brought comfort to those
about her. Such an unselfsh and helpful
life ia rare, aud must reap as its reward
the welcome assurance of "well done, good
and faithful servant" All who knew her
will feel the deepest sympathy for the
afflicted ones, and commend them to the
mercy of him who doeth all things we'll.
