Mrs. Clark's desperate cries for held were heard by Birdie Griffin, colored maid of Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Lake who was hanging out clothes in the back yard of the Lake homed which joins Mrs. Clark's property. The brave maid battered down a locked screen to find Mrs. Clark sitting in a hallway adjoining the kitchen. Her clothes were burned completely off but she was still conscious. After calling the fire department, the maid returned to do what she could for Mrs. Clard until help arrived. Fireman believed a stove ignited Mrs. Clark's clothing. An imprint of her body was left on the linoleum where she lay for a time as her clothes burned. Evidently she recovered consciousness, stumbled to the bedroom and fell on the bed where she tried unsuccessfully to open a window to call for help, failed and finally crawled into the hall where her cries were heard. At the hospital, where she was taken in an ambulance, attendants held little hope for her after it was learned she had suffered second and third degree bu4rns over her entire body. Mrs. Clark was born on April 3, 1881 and had made her home in Greenville for a number of years. Last rites were conducted by Rev. E. E. Hancock, pastor of the Grace Presbyterian church of which Mrs. Clark had been a member for nearly 50 years. As requested by the deceased the remains were cremated and the ashes placed in the East Mount Cemetery. Surviving are one son, Cecil B. Reid, of Ingleside and one daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth DeLacerda, of Many, three brothers and two sisters, and four grandchildren. ******************************************************************** Obituaries: Doss R.
