Obituary- Howard, Clarissa 1

Mrs. Clarissa C. Howard died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. E.G. Griswold, Sunday, April 28th. She had been in failing health for some time and owing to her age was unable to rally to treatment and kind care. She was born March 31st, 1837 in Shaftsbury, Vermont, and was therefore 75 years and 28 days old at the time of her death.
She was married January 28th, 1868 to Otis Howard of South Shaftsbury, Vt. Of this union three children were born, Zoa Louise, Eliphalet and Nettie H., two of whom survive her, her husband having died October 17th, 1899. They came to Rossville in 1889 and she has lived here ever since.The funeral was held Tuesday at 2 o'clock at the house, Rev. C.B. Chatfield officiating and the remains laid to rest in the Rossville cemetery. Mrs. Howard led a quiet, unassuming life, devoted to her family and friends. The sorrowing relatives have the sympathy of the entire community.
