    CLEMENS. - On the 27th of Jan., 1891, in Allegan Co., Mich., Levi Clemens, aged 64 years. Buried in the Leighton Cemetery on the 29th. Bro. Clemens had a stroke of palsy, about six years ago, by which he lost the use of the left side of his body. For the last six months he was entirely helpless. He bore the affliction with Christian patience. When asked how he was, he replied, "O, all is well, the Lord wills it thus, for He lets no evil befall His children." He leaves a widow and three sons to mourn their loss. Lord bless and comfort them. Services by Elder Haller, and C. Wenger.

    _____________________________


    Age 83 years, 11 months, 28 days Nearly 84, passed away Saturday after a long illness. He lived for many years in Leighton Twp. and was well known here. Some years ago he sold his farm and went to California to be near a son and family - later he sold out there and came back here and purchased the M.E. Thompson property where the wife passed away about a year ago. He had been in failing health since and was given the best of care by his daughter, Mrs. Perrault, and his son and family of Chicago, a part of whom moved here and was with him constantly. He was fortunate in one thing, that he had no pain all during his illness. The funeral will be a t 2 PM at the late home. The relatives have the sympathy of their friends in the passing of a real man.
