Edmond [sic. Edward] Jones Clark was born in Prattville, Penn., Oct. 28, 1856 and died in Guymon, Oct. 3, 1919. His life for the most part was spent in Pennsylvania though he lived in New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming for his health. When a boy he had a severe accident which left him subject to spells of melancholy and periods of mental depression which gradually grew worse as he became older.

He married Louisa Denton. To them was born an only child who is now Mrs. W. A. Corbin. Mrs. Clark died June 14, 1914.

When a boy, Mr. Clark united with the Methodist church, and at the time of his death was a member at LeRaysville, Pa. He has two brothers, Richard and Samual Clark, in New York State, two sisters, Mrs. Jackson Cobb in Colorado, Mrs. Emery McCumber in California.

Due to one of these spells of melancholy, Mr. Clark took his own life, Friday, October 3.
