J. Clark Baum, wagon builder, dies suddenly

J. Clark Baum, retired wagon manufacturer and well known resident of this city, died Saturday evening at his home, No. 117 Kellogg street, after an illness of but a few hours. Mr. Baum, with members of his family, had enjoyed the day in the city and he had seemed to be in his usual good spirits and health.
He was motoring in the evening and while in North Syracuse experienced a slight but brief spell of illness. He was taken to Dr. Samson in that village, but it was believed that it was nothing serious. Mr. Baum went home immediately.
Shortly after he arrived, he again was stricken suddenly and failed rapidly, dying a few hours later.
The Baum carriage and the Baum wagon was the popular vehicle in years gone by. His devotion to the business gave him unsolicited renown. Up to five years ago, he was actively engaged in the wagon business.
He was a resident of this city for fifty years, but was a native of Hastings. He started in the manufacture of carriages when only a boy and continued in that line for thirty-five years or more.
Besides his wife, Mrs. Carrie Baum, he leaves one daughter, Mrs. Jennie Baum Putnam. The funeral will be held from his late home Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Friends are invited. Interment will be at Oakwood.
