Born Jan. 28, 1874, Mrs. Clark had been in ill health for some time.  She had

of her death.

She is survived by four daughters, Mrs. Bradford of Walters, Mrs. G. C. 
Hammett of Natchez, Mrs. Maude Smith of Natchez and Mrs. Nola Gelvin of 
Trout; four sons, Emile and Rufus, both of Natchez, Ernest of Vidalia and 
Dewey of Ferriday; 27 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren; two sisters, 
Mrs. E. N. Duke of Jena and Mrs. Birdie Johnson of Seattle, Wash.

The Rev. Hardy Bingham conducted the final rites, with Joel Reece, Wade 
Garrett, Bud Spinks, Karl Rials, Hugh King and Jack Swain serving as 
pallbearers.
