Clay Northcot HURST, son of Alfred and Susannah Hurst, was born in Fleming county, Kentucky, April 21, 1856. He departed from this life November 23, 1922, at five minutes past eight o'clock. He was sixty-five years, seven months and two days of age. He was united in marriage ot Miss Amanda E. HAM, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Asiel Ham, November 20, 1891, at the home in Fleming county, Kentucky. Mr. Hurst began the Christian life in his boyhood, being converted in his thirteenth year. Soon after this he united with the Methodist Espicopal church and has lived a consistent Christian life until his exit into the better land. About three months ago he was taken down in his last sickness, and although his suffering has been severe and long continued, he bore it all patiently as a little child going to sleep in his mother's arms. He was a lover of his God, his church, his friends and people. He was loyal to his church and was always found at his post at Sunday school and the preaching service and prayer meeting. The church has lost a faithful member; the wife a loving and devoted husband; the brothers and sisters, a loving friend and brother; his lodge a true fellow and the town a business man of courtesy and integrity. He leaves to mourn his departure a loving companion, two brothers, Rev. A. P. HURST of Albany, Mo., and S.M. Hurst of Fleming county, Kentucky; two sisters, Mrs. Charlotte MUSE of Muses' Mills, Kentucky, and Mrs. Geo. W. WHEAT of Sabetha, Kan., and a host of other relatives and friends. The funeral services were held at the Methodist church last Saturday afternoon, conducted by the pastor, Rev. L.F.
