The Lake Odessa Wave, Thursday, February 13, 1936
Again another resident who wandered away to make his home elsewhere returns to 
his last resting place at Lakeside.  The Clark families were prominent in the 
early history of this village.  Especially the two families of Frank and Seth 
Clark, and many people here recall the friendship of the two families.

The latter part of last week the news came that the body of Seth Clark would 
arrive here for burial at Lakeside, Sunday afternoon, with a short service at 
the cemetery.  Of course the condition of the roads made it impossible for the 
cortege to get through and the burial was postponed until Monday.  

The following is a short mention of his death and family:

Seth E. Clark, of Monitor township, died Thursday night at 11:30 o’clock at 
his residence after a lingering illness.  He was born at Lake Odessa, October 
7, 1856, going to Saginaw in 1917 and removing to Monitor township in 1926.  
He was a farmer.  Surviving are his widow, Alice; two sons, Edison, of 
Detroit, and Andrew, at home; a daughter, Mrs. Weyman Keith, of Grand Rapids; 
a brother, Frank Clark, of Hastings, Mich.; a sister, Mrs. C. D. Roberts, of 
Winnipeg, Can., and seven grandchildren.  Funeral services were held Saturday 
afternoon at 3 o’clock at the home.  The Rev. V. G. McDonald Jones of Auburn 
officiated.
