Mrs. Clements was the daughter of David
and Patience Getchel Sandborn of Waldo,
and was 81 years old at the time of her
death. Everything that loving care and de-
votion could do to stay the coming of the
dread message was done by her daughter,
Miss Ada Clements, who was untiring in
her care and attention through so many
weeks of suffering. Mrs. Clements was
loved by all who knew her. She was entire
| ly devoted to her home and children, but
was always ready to extend helping hand
to those in need. She was of pleasing dis
| position and sterling character, upright in
| all her ways. She was one of those women
| whom the Bible speaks of as "keeperS at
| home" She leaves, beside hosts of friends,
to mourn her going away, four daughters,
Mrs. L. l.. Barlow, Mrs. j. II. Wentworth
of Waldo and Mrs. L. L. Gentner of Belfast,
| ard Miss Ada Clements, who has lived at
the old homestead with her mother the
| past four years. One sister, Mrs. Hiram
kenney of Knox, and two brothers, Chas.
William Sandborn of the West and Fair
field Sandborn of Montville, survive. Her
daughter, Miss Ada, was constantly with
! her during her illness, ready to anticipate
her slightest wish and to minister to her
every want. Although at times Mrs.
Clements sutferings were very acute never
a murmur or complaint passed her lips,
But her life work is ended and she has
Joined the circle of brothers and sisters,
the husband, parents and four children
that passed away before her, and has now
become ministering spirit to those left in
sorrow and sadness in her earthly home.
