SrICIDE OF FORMER RIVER
DRIVER u FAIRFIELD
Body of Robert Mex. Clark Found by
wife Hanging in Stable OF House

Robert McKown Clarke, II, who was
found hanging in a barn at his home
in Fairfield Saturday afternoon was
well known in this section, having
been foreman on the river between
Madison and Hallowell for long per-
iod of years. Peter Larkin who mas
attained considerable prominence In
river driving on the Kennebec was
first employed in this capacity by Mr..
Clarke. The lifeless body OF Mr.
Clarke was found by Mrs. Clarke upon
her return from trip to Waterviile.
He had used a halter to hang himself
arranging the knot in such a way that
he was instantly killed. Mrs. Clarke
had left her husband only about an
hour as she had started for Waterville
ON the one o'clock car and returned
at two When she entered the house
after her trip she found a note saying
that if she missed her husband she
would find him in the barn. This
seemed only natural and Mrs. Clarke
did not make haste in going to the
stable When she did so she found
the body of her husband suspended
bors, who cut the body down and took
it into the house. An examination
showed that death must have been
practically instantaneous, as the knot
of the halter, had been placed in such
way as to do its work quickly.
Mr. Clarke was born in Fairfield, No
vember s, 1914. He was educated
in the schools of the town, and had
lived there practically all his life, ex-
cept for the times when business took
him elsewhere. He was for thirty
years superintendent of the Kennebeo
river log driving company, and was
we'll known in numbering circles thru
out the state. as one of the men long
est associated with the business. Dur
ing the Civil war Mr.. Clarke was a
member of the 18th Maine Infantry
and fought in many of the great bat
ties of the war. He was a member
of the G. A. r. and of Sloan lodge
F. and A. NJ.
Mr.. Clarke was married May II
1876, to Miss Louise l.. Cole of Fair
field, who survives him. They had
no children One sister, Mrs. Ella {
Dunbar of Greenville, N. H., two nep-
hews, Rev Herbert W. Dunbar OF
Greenville. \. H.. and Philip Dunbar
of Richmond Va, and a niece, Miss
Mary L. Dunbar of Minneapolis, Mimi.
are the only other relatives.
No probable cause has been assign.
ed for Mr.. Clarke's act. 1t is known
that he was inclined to despondency
over real or fancied i'll health, but II
is not thought that his despondencS
was such that it would lead him tc
the act The funeral services were
held Tuesday The Clarke's were
shortly going to their summer home
at Peaks Island according to theil
usual custom.
