Read More	The Marion Weekly Register Thursday June 30, 1870 DIED. In Marion, June 24, 1870, Mrs. Clara Granger, aged 29 [sic] years. On the 21st day of June, 1869, she was married to Mr. Earl Granger, of this city, being at that time in apparently good health, but that insidious disease, consumption, was even then doing its sure work, and in a few months there were unmistakable signs of failing health. For six or seven months she lingered, with hopes at first of recovery, but the disease baffled the skills of physicians, and dispite[sic] the tender care of loved ones and of find friends, slowly but surely progressed till it did its final work. She suffered much during her protracted sickness, all of which she bore with a good degree of patience. At first she seemed somewhat unreconciled[sic] to the thought of death, and the sundering of the tender ties of affection so recently formed as she had anticipated much for life with her loved companion; but as the end of life drew near she became more and more reconciled, and her hope in Christ grew stronger and brighter. During the last few weeks of her mortal life she talked of death as familiarly and as calmly as of any other subject, and was desirous to "depart and be with Christ." When I last visited her, on Tuesday, June 21, the anniversary of her marriage, she said she feared she could not have patience to wait till the time of her departure should come; and when the final hour came she bailed it with joy, and she died as only the christian dies. We call it dying, but to the christian it is only a departure for the better land beyond the river where "God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed away." Jesus said " He that liveth and believeth on me shall never die." The funeral was attended by a large number of neighbors and friends on last Sabbath morning. The bereaved companion has our sympathy in this affliction, the weight of which has not been conceived by hearts that have not passed under this dark cloud. J.V.DEWITT
