Mrs. Adda E. Carson, wife of S. Elmer Carson, one of Clarion's most worthy and highly esteemed ladies, entered through the open door of death into the eternal world beyond, last Tuesday, June 29, 1915, after having undergone an illness of several weeks duration from a complication of troubles. For some months past Mrs. Carson has not been well, and not a great while ago underwent an operation which afforded her great relief at the time. But there were complications in her case which made it impossible for her to overcome, and she yielded up her spirit to him who gave it. Miss Adda E. Barr was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Barr, and was born at Scotch Hill, Clarion County, June 16, 1867. She grew to womanhood there. On May 14, 1889, she was united in marriage with Mr. S. Elmer Carson at Tylersburg. For many years after their marriage they made their home at Scotch Hill, removing to Clarion some years ago. Her husband and two children, Howard and Gertrude Carson, are left to mourn their great loss. She is also survived by three brothers and five sisters, as follows: Frank Barr, Sheffield; Charles Barr and Mrs. Clarence Jones, Akron, 0.; Mrs. Robert Howe, Scotch Hill; Mrs. Chas. Steiner, Black Mountain, North Car.; Mrs. Chas. Ritts, Pittsburgh, and Miss Jessie Barr, Akron, O. Mrs. Carson was a noble Christian woman and a woman of lovable disposition. She has been a member of the M.E. Church since girlhood and was a devout and faithful follower of the Master. The funeral took place Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock, Rev. A.C. Locke, pastor of the family, conducting the services. Interment in Clarion cemetery. In addition to the above named members of deceased's family there were present at the funeral the following brothers and sisters of Mr. Carson: H. Less Carson, Miola; Angus and John Carson, Tionesta; Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Simpson and two sons, and Mr. and Mrs. John Kempf, Kane, Pa We desire to express our profound gratitude to the many friends who were so kind to us during the sickness and death of our beloved wife and mother.
