MISS CLARK’S DEATH

            Miss Ethel Clark died at the home of her parents at Hartland and Sunday morning, aged about 16 years.  Ms. Clark had been suffering from heart disease for over two years.  The last attack which eventually caused her death, came on last November.  From that on until a few weeks ago she has been under medical treatment in this city; but in spite of the fact that every means available was used to save her, the heart trouble brought on an attack of dropsy, and the complication caused her death.
            She leaves a father, mother, two sisters and two brothers to mourn her loss.
            Her parents took this means of expressing their appreciation of the many acts of kindness shown to them while they were in this city and by all their friends, especially those living on the hill, in which vicinity they resided while here.
