OBITUARY.
Charles U. Clough died in Dorchester,
Mass, March /, in the seventy second
pear OF his age. MIR. Clough was spending
the winter with his daughters, and his
sudden death by apoplexy WAS sad sur
prise to his many friends here, where, in
his pleasant and attractive home, all his
life had been spent.
little more than two years ago the
dark shadows fell on the family, when the
wife and mother-one OF the best OF
women 49, entered the silent land. Mr..
Cough had always been respected citizen.
He had served on the board OF selectmen,
was trustee OF Bluehill academy, and his
work in the Congregational church had
been constant and faithful. For years he
was leader of the choir, superintendent Of
the Sunday school and . deacon and
trustee OF the church.
He had been q teacher OF singing
schools in this and adjoining towns, and
his love of music, combined with the fine
soprano voice which his wife possessed,
and the natural talent OF the daughters
made their home one OF unusual musical
enjoyment and happiness. The pleasant
memories of that home will long linger in
the minds of those who dwelt therein or
who were welcomed to its fireside.
The funeral OF Mr.. Ciough was held in
the Congregational church March 3. The
three daughters Misses Gertrude and
Elizabeth and Mrs. Charles Newcomb,
with her husband, accompanied the re-
mains here. There were many beautiful
flowers.
