Rev N B ClarkSon.

(Sou. Christian Advocate, June a.
Tuesday morning we received the
following telegram from Florence:
Rev N B Clarkson died last night
after few days illness. His fam
lily were with him. Interment at
Gaffney today. R E Turnipseed." !"
Thus passes away another one of
the "old guard" He was born on
Johns Island, S C. September 23,
1889. He was reared in the Episco-
pal church by a consecrated, Chris
tian mother. His education, like
that of many young men of his day,
was cut short, but he had received
a good foundation in the prepara-
tory schools and by his own efforts
built we'll upon that. He married,
in 1862, Miss Laura V Gordon, of
Williamsburg county, who preceded
him to the grave a few years ago.
Nine children were born to them,
five of whom still live and one of
whom, Rev G F Clarkson, is an
honored member of the South Caro-
lima conference.
Brother Clarkson was converted
and joined the Methodist church III
early manhood. He was licensed to
preach in 1877, and was admitted on
trial into the South Carolina confer
ence in 1880. He served important
charges with success, winning many
souls for Christ. Several years ago,
on account of physical infrmities, he
was forced to ask for the superan-
nuate relation.
He leaves a record of faithful,
painstaking work; and he left his
impress wherever he labored. To
the surviving members of the fam
lily we tender our deepest sympathy.
Rev N B Clarkson was well
known in Walhalla and sections Of
Oconee, he having resided in Wal
halla with his wife for a short while
some years ago, and on several occa-
sions visited here during the time
his son, Rev G F Clarkson, was
pastor of tn, Methodist churches at
Walhalla and Seneca. He was an
able preacher. and an earnest worker
in the South Carolina conference for
a long term of years, retiring with
the superannuate relation a few
years ago.
