  • Notes 
    • The late Mrs. H.J. Clifton died at her home April 27th, 1904. She was born Nov. 7th, 1836, and was united in marriage in 1856 to A.J. Clifton. To that union was born ten children, six of whom are left to mourn her loss – two sons and four daughters; also three brothers and twenty-seven grand children. She was a faithful, loving mother and companion. Her husband died nine years ago, but she bore her loss with Christian fortitude, never murmuring not complaining. She joined the Baptists in Dewitt soon after marriage. Some fifteen years ago she, with her husband, united with the Baptist church at Penfield, and she lived a faithful Christian life until death removed her. Funeral services were held at the late home on Friday afternoon at 2 o’clock, the Rev. G.W. Dodson, of Henning, officiating. The interment took place in Loda cemetery.
