Clyde moved to Rialto in 1887. He and his brother-in-law, Ezra Graft (husband of Clyde's sister, Nellie), painted the first buildings in town.
The following information is from an obituary published in the SAN BERNARDINO SUN on January 24, 1930 :
Death yesterday claimed Clyde Herbert Darrow, well known resident of Bloomington for many years. He passed away at the home of his son, Fred Herbert Darrow, in Highland, where he had been living for the last two months during his illness. Mr. Darrow had resided for 43 years in California, spending much of that time in Bloomington, where he engaged in ranching and also followed the trade of a painter. He was 71 years old and a native of Ohio, and was survived by wife, Cora Darrow, two children, Fred Herbert Darrow. of Highland and Mrs. Maude Page, of Los Anegles. and two sisters, Mrs. Nellie Grant of Council Grove, Kansas, and Mrs. Lillie Stranahan of Ohio and 14 grandchildren.Mark B. Shaw Co. is In charge of funeral arrangements which have not been completed.
The Salvation Army's "War Cry" printed the following after he passed away:
"HIS FAITH NEVER WAVERED
"Brother Clyde H. Darrow was Promoted to Glory recently after a short illness, at San Bernardino, Calif.
"Commandant Carrol of Los Angeles Citadel Corps, assisted by Ensign and Mrs. Phillips and Lieutenant Hinshaw conducted the funeral services. Three grandsons and friends acted as pallbearers, laying him to rest in the Hermosa Cemetery, Colton, Calif.
"Brother Darrow was converted in 1882 in the Methodist Church, and was sworn into the San Bernardino Corps by Captain Guthrie in the spring of 1903. After several years of faithful service serving as Treasurer and in various other offices in the Corps, he removed to a farm near Columbus, N. Mex., where he resided until failing health made it advisable to return to California about two months before his death, at the age of seventy-two years.
"Yet his faith in God never wavered. Though he was unable to attend religious Meetings, he spent his spare time reading his Bible and War Crys, in meditation and in prayer. He marked many passages, which show his determination to be true to the last.
"His widow, daughter and several grandchildren are Salvation Army Soldiers and request the prayers of all.--A Comrade."
Clyde was the grandfather of the late Cora Violet (Page) World. Mrs. World told me that Clyde and his wife joined the Salvation Army after his future son-in-law came to the area with a Salvation Army group called the Charioteers. The son-in-law, Frank Page, met Clyde's daughter, Maude, and invited her to a Salvation Army meeting. Eventually, Made and her parents joined the Salvation Army.
