NEW CASTLE, Sept. 9.-From six
states-as far as Massachusetts-cam
friends yesterday to attend the funeral
of Mrs. Jennie B. Clewell Services
were conducted at the house and in
terment made in the Presbyterian Gem
etery. The floral tributes we're hand
some and numerous. The choir Of
the .Methodistc Church sang and the
Rev. F. x. Moore preached. Mr.
Moore said:
What is it that brings us together
Why the coming from so many homes
to assemble here at this hour? Is it
death? II it is death then we must
know what it means. If death means
annihilation, then we have reason to
languish in deepest sorrow. But it is
not death. Our sister has merely un-
dergone a transition into another
phase Of life. That which won the
admiration and love of all with whom
she associated still lives. / refer to
her big-hearted. kind-spirited, sweet
tempered personality. While that
which we behold with the natural
eve lies cold in death, her personality
still lives, both in the hearts OF those
who knew and loved her, and the
bosom of the Eternal Father.
For the comfort of these sorrow
ing ones and for the inspiration OF
those who hear my voice ! Wlsn 70
lay emphasis upon single sentence
that was spoken by our LORD ana
Saviour at a time when human sym
pathy found its highest and sweetest
EXPRESSION: I am the resurrection
and the life Not in the indefinite fu-
ture; not after atoms of time, resur-
rection of that which is mortal, put
the speedy and immediate transition
from darkness into light, from mortal
to immortal, into the presence OF the
Lord who said In my Fathers mouse
are many mansions, &c.
"The presence of so many people on
this occasion and these numerous
floral tributes of love and respect to
her memory shows that the life OF
the deceased touched the world In
many points and also shows that a
kind heart and a sympathetic spirit
are not allowed to go unnoticed or un-
appreciated.
"As pastor and neighbor Of our de-
parted sister have learned something
of the tenderness Of her life, the large
ness of her spirit, and the breadth OF
her sympathies. For this reason
delight to speak Qf her. AS II was
said of Dorcas, This woman was full
of good works and alms-deeds which
she did, so it might truly be said OF
the life of this, our departed sister.
"Her going away from us is a great
loss not only TO this bereaved fam
lily. but to the entire community. She
will be sorely missed by all who
know her But we find comfort in thu
knowledge that her life was vel
spent She loved God and HI:
church and His people. Her faith in
Christ the Redeemer never wavered
Her last message to family, friend!
and neighbors was Meet me in
Heaven Thank God we mourn nol
as those without hope If we remain
true to our God we shall sometime
be permitated to respond to her In.
vitation and meet her in Heaven"
