Note: AN OLD GULGONGITE ILL.

AN OLD GULGONGITE ILL. Mr. James Clarke, sen., a very old resident of Gulgong, is in a very low condition, and small hopes are held for his recovery. On Saturday an urgent message summoned Mr. R. Clarke, of Ryde, to his father's bedside. Mr. Jas. Clarke is also a son of the octogenarian, whose illness we are regretfully compelled to record. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 7 January 1915, p. 19.

Death 8 January 1915 Age: 83

Note: Death at Gulgong.

Death at Gulgong. MR. JAMES CLARK, SEN. There passed away at his residence, Gulgong, early on Friday morning, James Clark, at the ripe old age of 83 years. Over half a century ago, deceased came to this district to reside, first settling down at Canadian in the old digging days. There he conducted a chaff and corn store, and later on went in for farming. Mr. Clark lived at Canadian for some 15 years, and then removed with his wife and family to a property which he had purchased at Slapdash, where he resided for about 15 years, when he retired, and later removed to Gulgong, where he lived till his death, which sad event occurred as above stated. The late Mr. Clark was born in England, and came to Australia when 21 years of age, and some 12 years later made his way to Gulgong, then the centre of great activity, brought about by the discovery of gold. An aged wife and four children - Mrs. A. E. Brigden, Mrs. Watt, James (Gulgong), and Robert (Ryde) - are left to mourn. The funeral, which was largely attended, took place on Saturday, Rev. Newton officiating at the grave. Mr. S. J. Turner had charge of the mortuary arrangements. We extend our sympathy to the sorrowing wife and family. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 14 January 1915, p. 25.
