Mrs. W. C. Wright
Clarissa Ann Hasty was born June 28, 1854, at Decatur, Iowa, and died at her home in southwest Bedford, Ia., April 5, 1925, at the age of 70 years, 9 months and 7 days.
She was united in marriage to Wm. C. [arter] Wright, Aug. 9, 1873, when she was 18 years of age. There were ten children born to this union.
In the year 1923 they celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary. Since 1905 they have made their home in Bedford.
During the pastorate of Rev. John Arnold she united with the Methodist Episcopal church of Bedford. She had been converted in early life and at one time had united with the Baptist church. Her Christian faith evidenced itself in many ways during her lifetime and in the last months of her life it was a source of great comfort and hope to her. When after a long life of toil and many hardships she approached the end of the journey she confidently looked forward to her day of rest and crowning.
