Prominent New Portland Man Dies

Without the consultation of the
wishes of relatives and friends, Death
has again made visitation in the viii
lage of New Portland. 1t has finally
become necessary to add the name of
George Clark to the number of the
many who have passed away this
past winter and spring in this town.
Mr. Clark was born at New Portland
November II, 1850. His youth was
spent in the immediate vicinity and
in the year 1873 he married Laura C.
Dyer He was one Of a family of
twelve children, only two of whom are
still living, C. H. Clark of Madison
and Fred l.. Clark of New Sharon.
Mr. Clark's life has been one of
considerable activity At one time
he was rather extensively as we'll as
successfully engaged in the raising OF
gentlemen's driving horses for the
market. AS a farmer he was one of
the most prominent and lived for
many years on the land cleared out
of the forest by his father several de-
cades previously After this farm
was sold, he took special pleasure in
later years to go back and visit the
old homestead
Mr. Clark was a prominent citizen.
AS one of the oldest members of the
town, he had an adequate knowledge
of the past history of the village and
its inhabitants with their customs and
traditions. Altho George Clark was
not very strong physically during the
past few years, 1t was not his nature
to be idle or give up, but he kept
busy in the customary activities and
took an interest In the world about
him Mr.. Clark was also a true
friend and loyal supporter of the
church in the village, and took an ac-
tive part in the different activities
carried on under its auspices Many
will miss him. He Is survived by his
wife Laura C. Clark

Former Madison Boy Visits Capital

The Pasadena Star-News of Thurs
day, April 26 and Friday April q has
been received at this office. Two in
teresting letters from Walter Board
way to his father, L. A. Boardway
of Pasadena are contained in the
copies of these Western papers. Young
Boardway was born and raised In the
town of Madison, Somerset County
and Is now a senior at Princeton Col
lege, from which he will be gradual
ed this month. He intends to enter
the aviation corps and is studying at
the present time with that in view.
He is editor-in-chief Of the Princeton
Tiger.
The two letters give an enjoyable
account of young Boardway's trip to
Washington at the time President
Wilson delivered his address calling
upon Congress to declare a state of
war. How he manoeuvered to get adj
mission to the Senate and Congress
and to get by" without the custom

PLUNKETT Sees HOPE
IN IRISH CONVENTION
Expects Overwhelming Desire to
Make Il Succeed.

LONDON. May 23-Sir Horace
Plunkett. the Irish publicist, who,
without Identifying himself with
either OF the political partieG has
been q constant worker for Irish bet
terment, yesterday expressed his
opinion that the convention proposed
by the government would be accept
ed by Irishmen as offering hope of
q permanent settlement OF the Irish
problem
at has taken many generations to
convince the English people that they
cannot govern Ireland" said Sir Hor-
ace, "but only . few months to learn
that they cannot form q system of
self-government for that country.
Now that these lessons have been
learned. do not think IL win take
many weeks, or even days, for Irish
men to realize the great opportunity
which has fallen to them or the re-
sponsibility which Il involves: and, as
far a. / can gauge, the spirit under
lying the somewhat confused state OF
Irish thought caused by the kaleido-
Scopic changes in British policy, the
convention will be accepted as the
first really hopeful beginning of the
end of the Irish question. There will
be an overwhelming desire TO make
IL succeed"
The Manchester Guardian thinks
the best hope for the expedisnt is
that the English parties mean to
stand Gloof. 1t says.
The task before the convention Is
extremely difficult, as the speeches OF
Sir John Lonsdale and Sir Edward
Carson show that fires are still burn
ing and that the spirit of compromise
does not brood everywhere over the
troubled waters"
