In Preston, October 27th, at the residence of Dea. Clarke Rogers, of typhus fever, Almira Clarke, in the 18th year of her age, daughter of widow Nancy Clarke, of Friendship, Allegany Co., N, Y. This young sister possessed an amiable disposition and many endearing qualities. At the age of eleven years, she experienced religion, and united with the Sabbath Baptist Church of Preston, where she remained an active and exemplary member until her death. Her attachment to friends was ardent and sincere, and in turn, she was greatly beloved by them. She was ever a dutiful child and affectionate sister, and her death is much lamented by all who knew her. In her last sickness, though extremely painful, she was enabled by faith to hold communion with God, and sing praise to his name, giving full evidence that “precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints." We deeply sympathize with her afflicted mother and mourning friends.
