Daughter of C. V. and Patty (Farris) Gentry.

Miss Clark Gentry, aged 30, died at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Gentry, out on the Hustonville pike, at 4:30 Sunday morning after an illness of five weeks.

She had not been in good health for a long time and a few weeks since underwent an operation. For a while it seemed as if she would get well, but a turn for the worse came and for nearly a week before her death she was unconscious.

The burial took place in Buffalo Springs Cemetery after remarks by Dr. M. D. Early at 3 o'clock Monday afternoon. A very large number of friends were present and the floral contributions were both numerous and beautiful.

Dr. Early's remarks were appropriate and touching and must have carried balm to the wounded hearts of the parents and others who loved the young woman so dearly. Death at all times sad, is peculiarly so when it comes to those in the very prime of life. Unbounded sympathy is felt for the parents, sister and brother upon whom the blow falls the hardest. May a merciful God give them strength to withstand their irreparable loss.
