Real Daughter Mattie Rice and other family members of Weary Clyburn were given full honors on Friday, receiving an extended ovation from the convention delegates, and the event received very positive coverage on local TV channel 14, and was also covered by a PBS film crew at the convention interviewing SCV leaders about how we view Abraham Lincoln. Mattie took ill after traveling to Concord and was hospitalized, so wasn't able to be at the convention center and graveside memorial service. Please keep Mattie and her family in your prayers.
