CLARA BARKLEY

  A few hours after attending the baccalaureate services of the Berlin-
Brothersvalley High School senior class, of which her son is a member, Mrs. 
Clara E. Barkley of Main Street was stricken with a heart attack suddenly Sunday 
night, May 18, and passed away before a physician could be summoned.  Mrs. 
Barkley attended the services for the graduates earlier in the evening and 
apparently was in good health when she retired.
  A daughter of Benjamin A. and Anna (Logue) Miller, the deceased was born on 
October 6, 1886.  She leaves her aged father; her husband, Miles O. Barkley; and 
a son, Miles O. Barkley, Jr., who will graduate this week in the local high 
school.  She was a sister of Norman, Ord and Raymond Miller, all of Berlin; Mrs. 
Harry Gindlesperger and Mrs. Edgar Coughenour, both of Berlin.
  Funeral services were conducted Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 in the Brethren 
Church, Rev. N. V. Leatherman officiating.  Interment was in the I.O.O.F. 
Cemetery here under the direction of J. N. Johnson & Son, local morticians.
