MRS. MITTIE C. EMERY.
---------------------
 Mrs. Mittie C. Emery died at her
home in Tilton, Dec. 28, funeral serv-
ices being held at the house yesterday
 [Note: 'yesterday' was overwritten
with 'Monday', in pencil],
the Rev. C. C. Sampson, pastor of the
Congregational church officiating. She
is survived by three daughters, Misses
Mary, Josephine and Louise of Tilton;
one sister, Miss Mary E. Clough of
Canterbury; and two brothers, Albert
Clough of Canterbury and  0. A.
Clough of New York.  She was born
in Canterbury, Nov. 6, 1832, her father
being the late Hon. Joseph Clough of
that town, a man prominent in the re-
ligious, political and social affairs of
the state in his time.  The old home-
stead furnished the subject of an arti-
cle which recently  appeared in the
Granite Monthly under the title, "An
Old House and Its Traditions," by an
author unknown to the writer of this
sketch.  She was married about 1867
to Samuel L. Emery of Canterbury.
Mrs. Emery had many friends in
Nashua and was a sister of the late
Joseph CIough, an aunt of Mrs. Frank
S. Hussey and Joseph L. Clough, and
a cousin of Deacon Charles R. Mc-
Questen of this city. She was a wom-
an of strong Christian character and
of a genuine sympathy and refinement
which most strongly endeared her to
her family and to her friends.
