The death of David CLARK is reported. Though an old man, he was well enough to be in St. Stephen on Saturday last attending to business matters. On Tuesday he was about the house as usual, but feeling that the end was near he sat down and called his granddaughter to whom he quietly gave directions concerning his funeral and in a short time, while he still held her hand, his spirit gently passed away. Mr. Clark was an uncle of W.H. CLARK and Councillor LAFLIN.
