Clark BABCOCK, one of the city's well known business men and citizens, passed away suddenly at his home on West Fifth street Sunday evening at 10 o'clock from an attack of heart trouble. Mr. Babcock retired in the evening in fair health, but complained that he was not feeling very well and expressed the thought to his wife that "we must have faith in God and he will take care of us." Then he turned over in bed and kissed his wife with much tenderness and the next moment he was in the midst of what proved to be his death struggle. The terror stricken wife by his side leaped from the bed and rushed to the street, where she screamed several times for help and in a few moments a number of neighbors were on the scene lending what help they could, but when the attending physician arrived a few minutes later he pronounced the man dead.
Clark M. BABCOCK, the oldest son of George H. and Susanna BABCOCK, was born in theEbenezer neighborhood, this county, on March 6, 1858, and on October 4, 1880, he was united inmarriage with Miss Louise PETERSON of this city. To this union was born two sons, FrederickG. [BABCOCK], Portland, Oregon, and Clark Charles [BABCOCK], of this city, who survivewith the wife and mother. He also leaves three sisters, Mrs. Retta J. SMITH, Peru; Mrs. EllaSAVAGE, Macy; Mrs. Lillian J. HATCH, Whiting, and three brothers, Lot M. [BABCOCK],Amherst, South Dakota; James R. [BABCOCK], Dunkirk, and County Clerk A. E. BABCOCK,this city.
Clark Babcock has been identified with the business world of this city for the past number ofyears and during the past several years was a partner in the BIG STORE, north of the publicsquare. He was upright in business and made many friends, who now join the sorrowing family intheir deep grief.
The funeral arrangements have not been made.
