In Memory Of Miss MiIIie c. Clark
who died August Fl, 1902

Arrest. 1t is not death but only a
transition. For her "the long, long
night has passed The morning
breaks at last. She asked not to stay
where storm after storm rises dark
DER the way" but with unfaltering
faith, she closed the windows Of her
earthly tenement and passed out of
this life into the life eternal.
The sad tidings other death spread
rapidly and it was with heavy hearts
and whispered tones that her name
was spoken and her noble life-work re-
viewed. The loss to this town by the
demise Of this highly estimable woman
is incalculable, and the influence Of
her good deeds will live after her, and
90 on and on like the silent waves to
unknown and distant ages.
Miss Clark's nature was singularly
refined and sympathetic. and in all
walks Of life she followed line of
n cientious duty that led to the
heighth Of perfect womanhood in llfe,
aud the blessings ola death imbued
with the hopes and assurances Of cter-
nal bliss.
Her devotion to the interest and adj
yancement other pupils and her solicit
tations for development along the
lines Of Ler own refined tastes and
sense u uprightneSs and morality.
were traits Of character worthy otthe
highest admiration aud praise. As n
woman Miss Clark was animated by
every instinct that was pure and no
bie-asa sister she was ever tender
aud devoted, and in every phase Of her
disposition aud ahiliation she subyert-
ed her personal inclnationS to the In.
teres, ana pleasure Of those she ,oycd.
Her life from a Christian standpoint
was most exemplary, and her conscIen-
tious discharge Of every duty, moral
and religious, has left an enduring
memorial for those who loved and ad.
mired her.
There we're many beautiful floral
tributes sent by loving friends and a
superb wreath of Marechal Mel roses
from her pupils. She was laid tender
ly and revereutly away in Gods Acre
on yonder hill, where amid the songs
Of the birds, the sunshine and frag-
rance Of sweet flowers, we leave all
that is mortal of this truly Christian
woman.
ITO 20 to God for whom she lived
To leave this world-a iIeeting thing
Was it not sweet ? Why should We

In MemOriam
OF Miss Mile c. Clark, an Es-
Unable Lady.

Died, in Rowlesburg, w. Va, Aug.
q, 1902, at the home Of her sister,
Mrs. J. G. Hooton, Miss Mile @.
Clark. Miss Clark was born near Nor
rlstown, Belmont county, Ohio Early
IN life she was converted aud received
into the fellowship of the Baptist
church at Morristown, Ohio, where
she remained a faithful member until
1867, when she came to w. Va. as a
teacher and taught number OF schools
in the state. In 1895 she was teach
er in Broaddus Institute, where she
made many friends, and at which time
she united with the Baptist church in
Clarksburg where her membership re-
NAMED until death. In all the rela-
lions of life she manifested loving
Christian spirit, her chief aim being
the betterment and uplifting Of the
young people.
She was loved by all as was mani
tested at her funeral by scholars and
patrons. He who had been her guide
and comfort all her life long, did not
forSake her in death; but with conf
dence and faith was resigned to the
will Of the master, her only regret be-
ing that she had not done more for
Him who had been so good to her.
Her life was indeed benedlctlon, her
death a triumph
AS she lay in her beautiful Casket,
almost covered with palms and choice
flowers, we could not think her dead,
but only sleeping We do not mourn
for her, but rejoice that after well
fought battle, she is at rest, She
leaves four sisters and two brothers,
who win miss her frequent coming TO
their homes.
Funeral services at the home Of her
sister, conducted by the Rev. ldleman
Of the NJ. E. church, was largely at
tended by her many friends and rela-
tives from Clarksburg, Fairmont, Oak
land, Terra Alta and Others places.
Six young men, her Sunday school
scholars, were pail bearers. A large
procession Of children were in attend;
ance and strewed flowers in heTgrave.
