Sketch of the Life of: ALMEDA DAY McCLELLAN
Prepared by her grand daughter Zitelle McClellan Snar
r ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'm no artist, don't know anything about painting. But I
'm going to present a word picture of my little paternal gr
andmother, Almeda Day McClellan, who lived to be nearly 10
2 years old.
Some of this information was obtained from actual contac
t with grandmother. Parts from her children, my father, Ge
orge A. McClellan, his youngest brother-Professor Charles E
. McClellan of Logan, Utah and other Aunts, Uncles and cous
ins. After grandfather McClellan died in 1916, grandmothe
r lived in our home at times, and she used to dwell in th
e past a great deal in memory. I can picture her now, stan
ding with her arms folded across her back...her shoulders h
eld erectwith a slight rocking motion...she talked to me a
s she ironed. She spoke ofthings that were important to h
er in days gone by. I wish now that I had been more attenti
ve then, and had been wise enough to question her along cer
tain lines. I was a member of the Pioneer Stake Sunday Sch
ool Board at the time, and was trying to think out a lesso
n I had to present. Sometimes I becamea bit irked with he
r for interrupting my train of thought, even though I didw
rite down many of the things she told me during those years.
"If Youth could know what age would crave full man
y a penny youth would save" It is an oldadage & I would pa
raphrase it to read:
"If youth, the wisdom of age would crave,
More patience with the aged, youth must have."
After I was married in 1925, I became the corresponding S
ecretary for the Salt Lake County Board of the Daughters o
f Utah Pioneers, and began to realize the importance of rec
ording more of the experiences in grandmother's life. Bu
t if she ever saw me writing things down as she talked, sh
e would stop immediately and move away, saying; "What do yo
u want to write it down for? I might be wrong."
She was atiny woman, physically, but she never asked any
one else to lift the heavy endof the load. She passed thr
ough the hardships of pioneer life, of relativepoverty, al
l of her days. Guy C. Wilson said of her passing: "I'm sur
e therenever was a soul who could do that with more grac
e and courage than Almeda McClellan. She bore the burden
s of life without complaint. She was a patientGod-fearin
g woman."
Toward the end of her days, her youngest son Charlesonc
e asked her what was the greatest trial she had endured i
n the course of her long life. "Trials," she mused, "neve
r had any." Uncle Charles recalled some of her experiences
... she was a frail, delicate baby. Only weighed 21/2lbs
. at birth. As a child, she crossed the St. Lawrence Rive
r on the ice.Lived with her in-laws for a while after mar
riage to William C. McClellan who had just returned from th
e long trek with the Mormon Battalion. They started acros
s the plains for the west by ox team with a 5 week old baby
. Theyspent about 4 years in the United Order up at the s
aw mill at Sunset, Arizona. They pioneered Payson, Utah; B
righam City, Arizona; and Colonia Juarez inold Mexico at t
he age of 81 years.
"Wasn't that hardship and trials?" he asked. "Humph!" sh
e responded "all in a day's work!". Grandfather added.."Wh
at we did was just ordinary. Just what there was to do. Y
ou do what you have to do in this life, and that's just wha
t we did. We just happened to livein that time." --------
