Harriet Useba Clark (nee Hutchinson) was born June 17, 1830 near Pomeroy, and
all her life lived near her old home. She died November 30, 1900, aged 70
years.

She was united in marriage to Lorenzo Clark March 1, 1849. This union was
blessed with eleven children, seven boys and four girls; two children
preceded her in infancy to the spirit world. She joined the M.E. church when
but a girl. Shortly after her marriage she with her husband joined the
Christian Order church at Clark's Chapel, Pine Grove, Ohio.

She lived a consistent, christian life until death. When it came she
expressed to her family and friends that stood around her couch, "I am ready
to go. All is well." The children all had the pleasure of visiting mother
before her departure.

She leaves a husband and nine children, viz.: J. W. Clark, Maitland, MO; Mrs.
W. Grover, Kyger; Dr. W. A. Clark, Wichita, Kan.; Alonzo, Charles and
Benjamin Clark of Knowlton, Iowa; Mrs. Emma Ewing, Industry, PA; A. A. Clark
and Mrs. H. C. Wilson, Pine Grove; also a brother Benjamin Hutchinson,
Circleville, and a sister, Mrs. Henry Johnson, Maitland, Mo. and a large
circle of friends to mourn their loss which is her eternal gain.

Funeral services were conducted by the writer at Clark's Chapel, Pine Grove
November 5, in the presence of a crowded house.
