REMAINS WILL BE TAKEN TO NORA SPRINGS FOR BURIAL FRIDAY AFTERNOON

Mrs. James Clark, mother of H.E. Clark, passed away at her home in Spirit Lake this morning at 6 a.m. after an illness covering several weeks.

Mrs. Clark was taken sick in July and taken to the home of her son where she remained for seven weeks and seemed to improve so much and expressed the constant desire to be in her own home, that she was taken back to her own home in September and while she has been about the house nearly every day, she gradually failed until the final summons came.

Mrs. Clark would have been Eighty-one years of age December 17.

Funeral services will be held at the H. E. Clark home on Friday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. and the remains taken to Nora Springs for burial in the family lot.

Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Clark, Mrs. Chas. Clark and Mr. and Mrs. R. K. Sperbeck will accompany the remains to Nora Springs for burial.
