The Holton Recorder
Jackson County
Thursday
November 30, 1922

On last Thursday evening, November 23, 1922, just after the close of another
day, the community was shocked and saddened on learning that Mrs. Clark COLEMAN
had passed away quietly and peacefully at 7 o'clock. She had made such a brave,
strong fight for life and strength again that everyone in the community was
hoping and trusting that she would be restored to health. But having been sick
for 13 long months the task was too great for her strength.
The reporter has known "Mamie" as she was known by all--ever since she was a
small school girl and we know of no one who had more friends. She was quiet,
unassuming, trying to help in every way possible any good cause in the
neighborhood. It seems sad to see one in the prime of a useful life and strength
in death, but still sadder to see one stricken to whom life meant so much in her
home. There is nothing more precious more everlasting, more divine than the
radiant sunshine of a mother's love and affection in the home. The sympathy of
all goes out to her husband, two daughters and mother.
Miss Mamie STRONG was born near Holton and died at her home northeast of
Mayetta, November 23, 1922, aged 38 years, and 3 months. She was united in
marriage to Clark COLEMAN, in 1904. Those suriving her are her husband, two
daughters, Erma, 17 years and Mary 14 years, and her mother and two brothers.
The funeral was held at the M.E. church at Mayetta of which she was a faithful
member and was conducted by her pastor, Rev. SHULER. One of the largest
gatherings ever assembled in Mayetta came to pay their tribute to a good true
character. The remains were laid to rest in the Holton cemetery beside her
father who died a few years ago. The whole community extends sympathy to the
bereaved ones.
