1853. She was married to Mr.. Clark
eight years ago. Mrs. Clark did not
have any children. but took charge OF
two orphans in their childhood and
cared for and reared them, these be-
ing Mrs. Julia Glenn Drake and Mr..
Press Glenn, both of whom now re-
side in Charlotte. Mrs. Clark was
woman of sweet christian character
and she was an inspiration to those
who knew and associated with her.
She was a faithful member of Wax
haw Methodist church. Funeral SER
vices and burial were held Saturday,
Rev. f. n. Crowder. her pastor, being
in charge, the burial being at old

The flu epidemic is from al ac-
counts rapidly passing away in Wax

where the disease has prevailed the
past few weeks. The WaXhaw school
was re-opened last Monday. The
danger of a general epidemic seems
to have disappeared.
