 The Atlantic Union Cleaner, publish ed at South Lancaster, Mass, of date July last, has the following obituary of Elder A. H. Clark. who was q for mer resident of New Haven and resided on the corner of Edgewood avenue and Orchard street:
 CLARK.-Elder A. H. Clark was born July 3, 1850, at Johnson, Vt. July 3, ISIS. he married Mary Ella Moore. He was converted in 1888. Tn 1889 he at tended tent meetings at Springfield. Mass, conducted by Elders H. J. Far- man and c. L. Kellogg. The first Sab bath of 1890 he kept, and heartily ac- cepted the present truth. Soon after this he entered the canvassing ork in that vicinity. This work he continued with success little over two years. when the New England Conference en- couraged him to enter the Bible work. At the West Newton camp meeting in 1898 he was ordained to the gospel min- istry His special burden has been for Bible work, and in it God has given him success. His labors have been largely bestowed in Lowell, Hartford, Spring field and New Haven. At each of these places there are living results to testify to his faithfulness and fidelity to God $ saving truth.
 He was permitted to see his children, one son and two daughters. give their hearts to God, and with their parents enter the service of the Master.
 Tuesday, June 16, he finished packing his goods, expecting to leave the next day for Gloucester, Mass, to begin work in new field. He went to bed early, stating that he was tired out and want ed to get a good nights rest. Other wise he seemed to be as well as usual. He went to sleep at once, and slept soundly all night but awoke with q strange feeling. which soon developed Into loss of mind. Wednesday night he was taken to our sanitarium at Melrose. The doctors seemed to agree that a small blood vessel had burst in the brain. He had several short periods of consciousness: the last one being about noon of Friday June 19; and at 1O:3O that night, without struggle, he went to sleep to be called in the glorious res urrection morning by the Life-giver whom he had served.
 ! In his little book of Daily Thoughts we find these words for the day he clos ed his labors: .'I have fought a good fight, have finished my course, I have kept the faith; henceforth there is laid up for me crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day; and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing
 The funeral was held at the church at South Lancaster Monday, June P, at 2 p. m. Elders Wheeler, Russell, Gilbert and the writer united in the services and with our own hands we laid our beloved brother and fellow -laborer irl the grave to rest a little while from his labors. The blessed hope of soon joining in the glad reunion helped much to relieve the sadness of the bereave- ment.. -.s's-
 In the death of our brother we feel deeply that a faithful husband and father, a true brother and consecrat- ed laborer has been taken from our con- ference. We feel sure that the grief stricken wife and children will have our heartfelt sympathy in this their hour oi trial. A. E. PLACE..
