Adam A. Klock
In Charleston, December 13, 1875, Adam A. Klock, aged 75 years.
The death of Mr. Klock causes a deep feeling of sorrow to the community
where he had been so long and favorably known. Therefore, when an
industrious, honest Christian is removed by death from the field of labor,
society feels the loss and mingles its grief in common with the immediate
relatives and friends of the deceased. Adam A. Klock was born in
Herkimer county, NY, in the year 1800, and departed this life at his residence
in Charleston, where he had resided 40 years, Monday evening, December
13, 1875, in the 75th year of his age, leaving a wife and 8 children and
many friends to mourn his loss. In the year 1869 he earnestly sought
and obtained mercy through faith and obedience; was baptized and received
into the Christian Church, and during his short illness showed that the
religion he had embraced supported him in the approaching hour of dissolution.--The
funeral was held at his late residence in Charleston on the 15th, at 1
o’clock p. m. While we sympathize with her who mourns the loss of
a kind husband and with the dear children and a large circle of relatives
and friends still we do not mourn like those who have no hope. Assured
are we that the fast approaching hour of the resurrection will bring again
to life the departed, where the labors and trails of the present life will
be rewarded by Him who said “I am the resurrection and the life.”
Rev. M. Yale. (Tuesday, December 28, 1875, The Wellsboro Agitator,
Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)
