Miss Clara B. Lee, whose serious illness has been frequently mentioned in these columns, died Thursday and the funeral was held from the A. M. E. church Sunday morning at 9:00 o'clock. Rev G. B. Billops, pastor, delivered a very touching sermon. Miss Lee was an orphan who had been reared and educated by her aunt, Miss N. S. Parrott, who is a teacher in Lincoln school, and who deserves much credit for her faithfulness. Miss Lee was also a member of the "Utopia Art and Reading club and was its secretary until illness kept her confined to her home. The club members very appropriately dressed in white, attended the funeral in a body. She leaves to mourn her untimely death a brother, Chas Lee, grandmother, aunts and other relatives and friends. Her remains were shipped to Hlawatha and laid to rest at 3 p.m. The family were accompanied on their sad mission by Miss Allie H Barnett and Mrs. Carrie Kerford.
The Carnation Art club was very pleasantly entertained by Mrs. Itt Hickey, 905 North Second street. Rev. W H Hill has resigned as pastor of Ebenezer Baptist church St. Paul Baptist church, of which Rev. H. W. White is pastor, raised at their rally $187.
