He lias always remained a <|uiet and unas suming citizen and died in the es teem and respect of all who knew him. The funeral services were con- j ducted by Rev. 13. P. Robertson, of | this city. Senator Jefferies paid a | loving tribute to Ills dead friend, j The concourse that accompained the remains to the burial ground was perhaps the largest that has attended a funeral in the country in some years. Among those who attended from this city were Mayor A. N. Wood, Representative W. G. Austell, R. M. Wilkins andJ. G. Spencer. Speaking of t he deceased to a Leduuk n presentative on Monday Mayor Wood said: *‘I have dealt with Mr. Clary in cessantly for twenty years, and have always found him to be a perfect gentleman. He was high-toned in every respect. He was always lib eral In his dealings. He was an in dividual man, thinking and acting as his best judgment dictated. His life was a model one. A large part of his success, however, was due to his estimable wife, who shared in his labors, his sorrows and his joys.” The sympathy of the entire com- i muuity goes out to these stricken families in their sad bereavement. May they learn to say s ith all their hearts. “Thy will be done.” * ■«•». •— Barn Burned by Lightening. W. ,s.
