MRS. STEPHEN CLANTON PASSES AWAY

The death of Mrs. Stephen Clanton, which occurred at 7:30 Friday evening, 
removed from the community a noble Christian woman and deprived the heart-
broken husband and loving children of a devoted wife and mother whose sweet 
counsel and tender ministrations will linger with them as the most precious of 
their recollections. Mrs. Clanton had been sick but a short time and the news 
of her death was most unexpected to many of her nearest friends. The funeral 
services were conducted at the Christian church at 2:30 Sunday afternoon, at 
which time an impressive and appropriate discourse was delivered by the 
pastor, Rev. John Kendrick Ballou, after which the body was conveyed to 
Riverside Cemetery for interment.

Elizabeth Ann Farson, was born February 9, 1861, near Truro, Madison county, 
Iowa. As a girl and young woman she was held in high esteem of all who knew 
her. She made the good confession early in life and united with the Christan 
church. She was married to Stephen Clanton Dec. 7, 1879. She was a kind, 
loving, devoted wife and mother. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband and 
six children, two sons and four daughters, John and Wesley, Mrs. Delia Biglow, 
Mrs. Bertha Johnson, Mrs. Mary Cumberland and Mrs. Violet Steiner. With the 
exception of Mrs. Biglow, who could not be here, the members of the family 
were all at her bedside when she passed away. The faith of her youth sustained 
her in the hour of death.

The deceased had been a resident of Payette about 13 years, during which time 
she had drawn about her a large circle of devoted friends, who extend to the 
afflicted relatives their heartfelt sympathies.
