Mrs. John R. Clark, one of the old citizens of our city, died at the home of her son-in-law, Dr. J. S. Martin, in Muncie, on Monday at 12:30. She has been in very poor health for several months, and three weeks ago had a stroke of paralysis from which she never recovered. Funeral services were held at Muncie and the remains will ar­rive here at 9 o’clock this morning and will be taken direct to the cemetery where short services will be held. Mrs. Clark came to this county nearly fifty years ago and with her husband lived near Trafalgar for several years but have lived in Franklin for many years. She was seventy-five years, six months and eight days old at the time of her death. She leaves a husband and several children to mourn the death of a de­voted mother.
