CLARENCE ARROWOOD 1909-1938 Clarence Arrowood was born at River, Ky., November 1, 1909, and died October 10, 1938, age 28 years, 11 months and 10 days. He leaves to mourn his departure his wife, Mrs. Beatrice Ward Arrowood, one small son, Stanley, age nine, his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Faris Arrowood of Van Lear, one brother, Clyde, and sister, Nellie Arrowood. His passing leaves a sadness in the community for he was a genial, good-natured personality, and enjoyed life with all its blessings as well as all the trials that beset each one. We feel that his absence is only temporary for he left evidence that he was going on to the home that the Savior has gone to prepare. And the night shall be filled with music, And the cares that infest the day, Shall fold their tents like the angels, And as silently slide away. --Longfellow Paintsville Herald Thursday 10-20-1938 ---------------------------- OFFUTT MAN DIED OCT. 10 CLARENCE ARROWOOD, 29, SUCCUMBS TO OLD INJURY.
