In Loving Memory of Mrs. Clay Belle
Leeper Snodgrass.
The Captain William Buckner Chap-
ter Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion, sustained a great losg in the re-
moval of our recording secretary, Mrs.
(’lay Belle Leeper Snodgrass from our
midst by the grim reaper, death.
In His wisdom, God made provision
for those who are His, who, when their
earthly career is ended, to receive unto
Himself their souls. Hence we believe
the soul of our beloved, honored and
esteemed member and friend has gone
to be with Him who was able to keep
that which she had committed unto
Him.
She is not dead, because her memory
still lives with us. And we know her
going was only the passing from this
to the more abundant life .
Thus in sacred and loving memory
we record her going, and look hope-
fully to the future when our circle
now broken will once more be made
complete.
Mrs. Clay Belle Leeper Sndograss
was born August 23rd, 1891, she was
graduated from Central College, Lex- j
ington, Mo. June 1914, married June
17th, 1915, died December 19, 1920.
Mrs. Snodgrass at the time of her i
death was a member of the First j
Methodist Church, Coleman, and was j
active in church work. She was a I
member of the Self Culture Club, and
also an officer.
On both sides of her family, she was j
decended from prominent' revolution-1
ary ancestors.
During the stirring days of the
World War, Mrs. Snodgrass not only
gave her husband, David L. Snodgrass,
who served as second lieutenant, Air
Service, attached six hundred fifteenth
Aero Squadron, but gave herself up to
Red Cross and War Work with all the
zeal of her patriotic nature. She is
not dead but still lives in the life of
her infant son, Frank Lee Snodgrass.
May he ever be true to God, true to
home and true to country.
She has endeared herself as a friend
to us all, and both as a member and
officer of this chapter has left an ex-
ample that will he an inspiration to
those who are called upon to assume
the burdens which she has laid down.
Active in body, young at heart, al-
struistic in spirit, progressive in
thought and a firm believer and ex-
ponent of the life and teachings of the
Master, she crossed the bar, leaving
the memory of a beautiful and useful
life.
