MONDAY EVENING,
the following churches, all but one,
that at Muncy, Pa., being 1 it) the
Presbytery of Carlisle: McConnells
burg. Green Hill and Wells Valley,
1876 to 1880; Dauphin, 1880 to 1884,
and a second pastorate in that place
from 1899 to 1903; New Bloomfleld
and Shermansdale, 1884 to 1892;
Muncy, 1893 to 1897. After com
pleting his second pastorate at Dau
phin in 1903, owing to ill health, the
Rev. Mr. McClean retired from ac
tive pastoral work and moved to
South Frederick street. Mechanics
burg, where he has since made his
home.
Although not in charge of a con
gregation, the Rev. Mr. McClean
preached frequently at a supply and
took an active part in the work of
the Presbytery of Carlisle, having
served, since the death of the Rev.
Dr. William A. Wert, as stated clerk.
There is hardly a pulpit in Central
Pennsylvania from which he has not
preached. He was an ardent Pro
hibitionist. an ever active enemy of
the sale of liquor. As a preacher,
he was scholarly, direct, eloquent
and in the pastorate none ever was
more faithful in the active work of
the ministry.
The father of the Rev. Mr. Mc-
Clgan, former Congressman Moses
McClean, was an elder in the Pres
byterian Church at Gettysburg;, and
his grandfather, William McClean,
was an elder in the Market Square
Presbyterian Church at liarrisburg
during the time he was in the State
Auditor General's Department. Ex-
President Judge William McClean.
of the Adams-Fulton district, who
died two years ago, was a brother.
The surviving sisters are: Mrs.
M. H. Richards, of Allcntown, and
Miss LUlle McClean, of Gettysburg.
By his first marriage to Rose Ellen
Bowles, three children survive:
Robert 8., formerly circulation man
ager of the HARRISBURG TELE
GRAPH, and now business manager
of the New York Evening Post; Mrs.
Robert G. Sugder, of Hampton, Va.,
and William Chichester, of Mechan
lcsburg. His second wife, who was
Elizabeth MeElwer, survives him,
after thirty-one years of happy wed
ded life.
The funeral service will be held on
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock In
the Presbyterian Church, conducted
by the Rev. George Fulton. Imme
diately thereafter the funeral party
will proceed to New Bloomlicbl.
where burial will be made in tl>e
family lot.
