Mrs. P. F. Cliett.
Mrs. P. F. Cliett, consort of Elder J. W. H. Cliett, was born April 25, 1821. Joined the Primitive Baptist Church at Mount Hickory, Chambers County, Alabama, and was baptized by Elder John M. Duke in 1842, married to Elder J. W. H. Cliett December 14, 1843. Died August 30, 1894. Sister Cliett lived a devoted Christian for fifty-one years, there never having been aught against her in the church during all these long years. Sister Cliett was not only devoted to her church, but she was much devoted to her husband and children. During Elder Cliett's long ministerial life of over forty years, she was, indeed, a helpmeet – a minister's wife, indeed. Her life was a living example of the faith and patience of a saint of God. In all her suffering and affliction, for a number of years, she was never heard to complain at her lot; believing that God, in whose hands are the issues of life and death, was too wise to err, but doeth all things well. Sister Cliett remained strong in the faith she so long professed, and died in full triumph – having gained the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. The writer was intimately acquainted with her, and I do not think I ever knew a woman more devoted to her Master's cause than she was. She was, indeed, a mother in Israel. I having served the church of her membership during the first years of my ministry, she was ever ready to advise and encourage me as she would her own child. But she is gone; and, indeed, a mother in Israel has fallen. After a funeral discourse by the writer (from Romans, 5th chapter, 8th, 9th and 10th verses), she was laid neatly away in the cemetery at Zion's Rest, the church of her membership, surrounded by many weeping friends and relatives. She leaves several children and an aged husband bowed in grief. And may God bless her children and husband. May grace be given them to sustain them in this, their great loss, feeling sure that it is her eternal gain.
