Mrs. David Clayton
Harriett Elizabeth Griffith was the eighth child in a family of twelve children born to Daniel and Mary Griffith in Perry County, O., on the 24th day of February 1843. Her Heavenly Father saw fit to call her home in the early hours of Sunday morning, Dec. 18, 1932, at the age of 89 years, 9 months and 24 days. All her brothers and sisters have gone on before and her going makes the circle unbroken in that beautiful land.
She grew to womanhood in Ohio and on the 27th day of Feb. 1866 she was married to David E. [lzy] Clayton, who had just previously been honorably discharged from the Union Army. They came immediately to Taylor County, Iowa, where Mr. Clayton had come nine years before and established a home. They were among the first who came and settled in this community and she is among the very last of those pioneers to leave us.
To this home five children were born, one dying in infancy. The four surviving their mother are Orie [Ora] G. [riffith] of the Siam community, Mary [Hannah] Scrivner of near Chillicothe, Mo., Alva J. [efferson] of the Siam community and Elza E. [dgar] of Gravity, Iowa. She leaves thirteen grandchildren and fifteen great grandchildren. A nephew, Chalmers Griffith of near Bedford, Iowa and five cousins of the Rutledge family of near Sharpsburg, Iowa, also survive her. Besides these she leaves many nieces and nephews in Ohio. Since the death of Mr. Clayton on the 28th of Feb. 1916, she has made her home with her children.
Mrs. Clayton has been a life long member of the Methodist Church. She, with Mr. Clayton, did much in those early days to establish and maintain the church in this community. Her strength and ambition was always spent in ways of usefulness and she was always ready and anxious to do her part. She has lived long and well and now has gone to that land where she will never grow old and where thereÕll be no feebleness or frailty of body or mind.
Funeral services were held at the Siam Methodist church, Rev. L. M. Kirby preaching the sermon. Interment was in the Siam Cemetery.

Father Has Gone
George Washington Clayton was born June 19th, 1825, in Perry County, Ohio and died February 25th, 1888.
Brother Clayton has had a family of nine children, three having died prior to his death, six remaining to mourn his loss, but they need not mourn as those who have no hope.
Brother Clayton was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church some 37 years. United with said church in Hardin County, Ohio. He loved its privileges and enjoyed its communion for all those years, serving the Lord. He served the church at times as class leader and steward. In the year 1881 he was made one of the trustees of seven who were incorporated as a body to erect the M. E. Church of Siam, Iowa, in which his funeral services were held. Brother Clayton was taken sick very suddenly with lung fever, which terminated in his death in ten days. He was well aware when taken sick that he would not recover, he also expressed his unshaken confidence in the precious promises in GodÕs word, oft repeating the three first verses of the fourteenth chapter of the Gospel by John, and other portions of scripture such as, ÒAll things are ready now.Ó Exhorting neighbors, taking his neighbors by the hand praying for them. He was a man of uniform habits, loved his home, scarcely ever absent from it, and spent most of this present winter reading his bible.
He was a man that appreciated how good the Lord had been to him and he tendered of his substance to aid in building a temple of worship at Siam and was always ready to support the Gospel. The funeral services were conducted by brother Joseph Stewart and H. H. Roush.
From the 14th chapter of the Gospel by John.
Let not your heart be troubled; ye
Believe in God, believe also in Me,
In my FatherÕs house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go to prepare a place for you,
I will come again, and receive you unto
myself, that where I am, ye may be also.
Our prayer is that the kind Father in heaven may sanctify this affliction, to the good of the children and friends of the deceased.
Our time is short, the season near,
When death will us remove,
To leave our friends however dear,
And all we fondly love.
Together let us sweetly live,
Together let us die,
And such a starry crown receive,
And reign with Christ on high.

Siam Items
Died, at his home near Siam, Elmer [Arthur] Clayton, son of C. [harles] A.[ddison] and Elizabeth [Bailey] Clayton, Sunday, April 15, aged 11 years, 9 months and 20 days. The funeral sermon was preached at the M. E. church on Monday at 11 oÕclock a. m. by Elder Campbell, who lives near New Market, after which the remains were taken to the cemetery and little ElmerÕs body was laid to rest. A large congregation of sympathizing friends followed the remains to their last resting place. The boy came to his death from being kicked by a horse on Saturday morning, April 14. He ran in the barn after a hog and it is supposed the horse became frightened and kicked the boy. He was not thought to be dangerously hurt until the morning on which he died. Elmer was a bright, intelligent boy, and was loved by all his schoolmates, which was shown in the attendance at the funeral. They acted as pallbearers, and after the casket was lowered into the grave, the pupils marched around the grave and deposited a sprig of evergreen on the casket in token of the respect they had for the departed. We join in extending our sympathy to the grief-stricken family.

A fatal accident happened Tuesday near Gravity, which resulted in the death of John NashÕs 8-year-old son [William]. It appears that Mr. Nash was driving along the road from New Market in a wagon when his son by accident fell between the wheels. The hind wheel passed over his head and crushed his skull, causing instant death. The funeral of the unfortunate boy took place at New Market yesterday. This is a sad blow to the parents as this was their only son.
