CLARISSA B. SIDELINGER
Mrs. Clarissa B. Sidelinger was born in North Waldoboro Oct. 12, 1831 and was translated to her heavenly home on May 3rd, 1892. The deceased had been confined to her home in North Waldoboro about twenty-five years, and only when relatives and friends assisted her was she removed to a neighbors or to church. Although the disease so affected her limbs that she could not stand, yet during her long illness she would move about the house in a wheel chair. THough unable to attend to herself in every particular, she found pleasure in being able to do something for somebody. The last few years she has been in failing health and often suffered intensely yet she said little about it. She had learned patience by the things which she suffered. Mrs. Sidelinger became a Christian when about 15 years of age, and soon after joined the Methodist Church in North Waldoboro of which she remained a consistant member until her death. It can truley be said of her "she was a genuine Christian." Being many years deprived of the regular church services she enjoyed seeing people going to church and even the ringing of the bell seemed to have messages and music in its tones for her. Teh prosperity of teh church was her great desire. She never grew tired of having friends call to see her, and would often speak of those who were absent, and the many tokens of rememberance received from them, and for any little kindness shown. She always manifested a grateful spirit. Her last message to her pastor was "Tell teh friends how thankful I am for all they have done for me." She was ready to go not that she wanted to leave the world, but the suffering and the thought of her care caused her to wish for the heavenly rest, yet there was complete resignation to the will of her Lord. Mrs. Sidelinger died at her home of her daughter, Mrs. W.R. Walter who was tireless in her care and devoted to her mother. Two children have preceded her to teh Better Land. She leaves a husband, one daughter, one sister, and four brothers to mourn their loss. The funeral was held at the home of her son-in-law, and was largely attended. Her favorite hymns were sung by a quartette; and the serman was preached by her pastor Rev. George Reader from the text, "Blessed are the dead which died in the Lord." The interment was made in the North Waldoboro cemetery.
