Mrs. Jennie J. Clark

Mrs. Jennie J. Clark, nee DaCosse, passed away at her home in Clifton last Thursday morning after an extended illness of several months duration. The last few weeks of her illness were most severe but despite all this she went through it all with grit and determination to get well again but it was not to be.
Mrs. Clark was born near Clifton on August 16, 1858, and at the time of her death was two months and nineteen days past seventy-four years of age.
At the age of 19 years she was united in marriage to Mr. John Hamende, and to this union were born to children, both of whom preceded her in death.
A few years after her husband's death she was united in marriage to Mr. Henry Krumwiede and to this union was born six children, all of whom survive. Following this marriage they started a hotel known as the Clifton House and one which became know to long distances as one of the best hotels in this section.
Mr. and Mrs. Krumwiede became separated and a few years later she was married to Mr. Philip Clark. Together these two continued to operate the Clifton House until the work became too hard for her and they retired from active life.
About three years ago Mr. Clark passed away and since that time she gradually failed in health.
Mrs. Clark, through her business life became known far and wide for her kindness and the courtesies extended to all and it was with sadness that the news of her passing was received.
Mrs. Clark leaves to mourn her departure the following children: Theodore Krumwiede of LaGrange; Lena, Mrs. Lawrence Baron, of Kankakee; Lillie, Mrs. Charles Johnson of Clifton; Lenore, Mrs. Oval Flott of (unreadable); Walter Krumwiede, of LaGrange; Dewey Krumwiede and Lydia, Mrs. Will Bodeman of Lakefiled, Minnesota. She also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Della Mathy and Mrs. Elizabeth Hamende of Clifton, and Three brothers, Eugene DaCoss (sic) of Chicago and Arthur and Gaston DaCosse. She also leaves nine grandchildren, who with the family will miss the kindly administrations of a mother, sister and grandmother whose every thought was for the welfare of her loved oned.
The funeral services were (unreadable) from St. Peter's Catholic Church, of which she had long been a member at 9:30 o'clock Saturday morning with the Rev. Fr. E. A. Sweeney officiating at the solemn mass. During the service, Mrs. Arthur Hamende of Chebanse, singing with the choir, sang (unreadalbe) a most beautiful and fitting (unreadble).
Interment was made in the Clifton Catholic Cemetery. Six nephews were the pall beareres, namely Arthur and Edmond Hamende, Fred, Ed, Emile (?) and Herman Mathy. The flower managers were members of (appears to be Ever*** Camp R.N.A.) and these offerings were of magnitude and beauty.
We extend to the members of this family our sincere sympathy in your bereavement.
