Unidentified Publication, 1917

Samuel S. Clemens was born in Roseville, Waterlook Co., Ontario March 2nd 1847
and died March 31, 1917, aged 70 years and 29 days.

In his young manhood he came to Michigan where he has since lived.  Dec. 17,
1879, he was united in marriage to Miss E. Dell Griffeth, to which union was
born a daughter and two sons.  The daughter dying in infancy.

Six years ago his loving and devoted companion was called beyond.  Since then he
has been tenderly cared for by his son, Harry, and wife, and his son, George.

His was a kindly, genial disposition ever loyal to his friends, always
considerate of others and an indulgent parent.

His children and also his neighbors feel that they have lost a counselor never
to be replaced.  His sickness was extended through many years, bearing his
suffering with patience and fortitude.  Surely his will be a shining reward.

Left to mourn their loss are one brother, William, from Bruce., Ont., two
sisters, Mrs. Henry Kalbfleish of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and Mrs. Patrick
Cummings of Vancouver, British Col., Canada besides five grandchildren and
numerous other relatives and friends.
