Mrs. Amanda Clarkson, wife of Joseph Clarkson, died at her home Tuesday Aug 25. She had been suffering since March with stomach trouble. Amanda Harlow was born near Wesley March 20, 1842. She was married to Joseph Clarkson in October 1862. To them were born two children, Lewis and Jennie who with their father mourn her loss. She united with the Pleasant Hill Christian Church in February 1865 under the labors of Rev. WT Warbinton. That she was a loving wife, a devoted mother, a good Christian woman is the greatest eulogy that can be offered. The funeral was conducted by Rev. D. Powell Thursday at Pleasant Hill Christian Church. Interment at the cemetery there. The family has the sympathy of the entire community in this sad hour of bereavement. - transcribed by kbz
