AMELIA DAVIES McCLUNG.
Hid in the shadow of his hand, brief
was the life of Amelia Davies, beloved
wife of Finley Wallace McClung and
only daughter of the late Samuel X. and
mflpv 10, I* V orr tifvi r\ fvom TJ n
J ?M. . n 41V, 1IUIU ivapuiuc,
Rockbridge county, on September 8,
1909, with her precious babe, went home
to God, a polished shaft, to be in his
temple; having overcome, she shall go
no more out, but hath upon her a new
name.
Born in the Valley of Virginia, this
daughter of noble blood and of godly
parentage was richly endowed with mental
and social graces, and, in the nurture
of a home of refinement and ease, where
love reigned and in the excellent trainine
of Eiiirn Hill and Mnrv Rnlrtnrln
Seminaries, her character grew to rare
symmetry and beauty, and her intellect
keen, broad and deep.
Dedicated to God in infancy, Amelia
Davis Kerr, when a young girl, numbered
herself with the people of God in
membership with the Presbyterian
church at Ashland, where the family,
after the death of her father, removed,
and in "The Earnest Workers' Society"
she was identified with the work of that
church until the autumn of 1908. Then,
the bride of Mr. F. W. McClung, she
adorned his home in her mntehlesR
mountains, and enrolled in the New
Providence Church.
Sincerity, cheerfulness, gentleness,
lovely to live with, were traits that dominated
her life. Content in the companionship
of books, reading with avidity
vastly divergent themes and retaining
with accuracy that which was once
given place In her memory, yet delightIncr

reproach against any, verily, in her
tongue was the law of kindness, and she
ever exemplified th&t charity which is
not easily provoked. An intense devotion

of the mother whose care had fitted her
for so high a sphere In life. And to him
with whom the months of their united
life filled her meed of happiness her love
abounded In Joy and trust.
In its prime, with all that life holds
dear, and the anticipation of its pleasures
for years to come, Mrs. McClung,
without murmur, bravely bore intense
suffering, and, having given assurance
to the ones near her that "it is all
right," put on immortality. Thus entered
into fullness of life a friend well
beloved, the pride of a brother, the comfort
and stay of a mother and the support
and delight of a young husband.
"She is not dead, but sleepeth." So may
the sustaining grace of the compassionate
Saviour, who thus speaks in comfort
and cheer to these sorely bereaved
ones in this hour of deepest sorrow, enable
them to rejoice in looking for that
morn when she who sleeps in Jesus will
God bring with him. A. H.
MRS. ANDREW POLL.:.RD.
Nee Annie Shaw Vincent, went to her
eternal rest, June 17 1909.
Mrs. Pollard was born April 3, 1847, in
Ontario, Canada. She was the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Vincent of England,
who gave her in marriage to Mr.
Anarew ronara, Marcn zz, 18 iz, witn
whom she lived most happily for 37
years.
In 1901, this good woman with her husband
and three children, Edward, Joseph
and Helen all of whom are grown, moved
from Ontario to "Dunraven," near Richmond,
Va., where they have since resided.
Mrs. Pollard has been a member ol
the Presbyterian Church, since early
youth, and at the time of her death was
a communicant of the Third Presbyterian
Church, Richmond, Va. She was one of
the most devoted Christians. In her
home she was an ideal wife and mother;
in her community, a loyal and beloved
friend, in her Christian life an earnest
obedient and faithful follower of her
Master.
She so lived as to cause happiness to
all who had the privilege of knowing her.
and of her it can be said that the world
is better, because she lived and was a
part of it and is poorer today since she
has gone, but heaven is brighter for her
nresence there. Thnnerh deari nhe nnenk

say, "Blessed are the dead who die in

kept the faith.
