Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Normal Herald, Vol. 17: January, 1911 In all of these societies she discharged her duties with ability and faithfulness. She was an earnest student of the Bible and for forty years an admired and beloved Sabbath School teacher. Her known love for the great books of the world and her fondness for research led the students often to appeal to her for aid when investigating a subject. During the twenty-eight years in which she was a member of The Ingleside it is not recalled that she ever once failed to be ready with any part of the program assigned her. Ten years ago when it was proposed that she make her home with us at the Normal, fear was expressed by her friends that she might not find school life congenial to her. But no one could have more fully enjoyed the life and stir and youth about her. The revolving years had brought to her loss and grief but she had learned a glad patience and cheerfulness in the school of Christ. Though she was seventy-eight, she died while she was still young and making felt the sweet presence of a spirit that was never to know the dimness of age. Funeral services were held on Saturday night at the home of her nephew, Attorney J. Wood Clark, and interment was made in Oakland Cemetery, Sabbath afternoon. The room in which she lay, the parlor of the old homestead, was filled with beautiful flowers amid which she lay in the silent majesty of death. Farewell! Dear friend and sweet counselor, farewell! School will open again but the returning sessions will bring to us no more thy warm greeting. The quiet smile, the gentle rebuke, the wise word, the helpful hand are for us no more. The Great Teacher looked upon your work, pronounced it good, and called you higher. In the class rooms, societies, and Y. M. C. A., you can see the results of the training secured in The Lincoln Debating Club. The boys do not hesitate to get up before a class or an audience and express themselves, as they did formerly. They also learn how to conduct a meeting in a parliamentary manner - something everyone should be able to do. We are greatly indebted to Prof. Heckel, whose unceasing interest in the Club has been its mainspring of success. Blue pennants, with the word Lincoln in gray letters, have been secured.
