The Weekly News, Frederick MD, 27 Mar 1884, Page 2

It is with regret that I announce the death and burial of one 
who was held in high esteem in this vicinity.  Clinton F. 
Crampton died on Friday last in New York city of pneumonia. 
His illness was of short duration.  He was a bright and 
promising young man and was beloved by all his companions.  
He left his home here several years ago and secured a 
situation on the New York Elevated Railroad.  At the time of 
his death he was one of their station masters.  His remains 
reached here Sunday at noon and were conveyed to St. Mark’s 
burial ground where they were interred.  Accompanying the 
remains was a beautiful arch five feet in height, made from 
the most beautiful flowers that could be procured in the city.  
An anchor suspended in the arch, beneath which was a pillow 
of the most delicate flowers; perched upon the top was a 
lonely dove with outstretched wings.  The above was presented 
by the employees of the railway company showing their high 
esteem for their departed friend.  The pall-bearers were 
Columbus O’Donnell, Charles M. Wenner, Luther Luckett, J. P. 
West, Wm. L. Gross and Frank Schroeder.
