Mrs. B. B. Brownfield Called by Death
Mrs. Ada Clark Brownfield, wife of Basil B. Brownfield, and one of the city's most prominent and respected women, died Tuesday evening, May 10, 1921, at 7:30 o'clock at her home, 352 Morgantown street, of diabetes, following a lingering illness. Mrs. Brownfield had been failing in health for several years. She, in company with Mr. Brownfield, spent a year in the west and southwest and when she returned she appeared improved. She suffered a relapse sometime ago and grew gradually weaker until the end came.
She was the daughter of John Clark and Hannah Farr Clark and was born June 3, 1869, in South Union township, where she resided until the time of her marriage 26 years ago last month. She had been a staunch member of the Asbury M. E. church and affiliated prominently with the Victory class and other auxiliaries of the church to which she gave considerable time and material assistance. She was also a member of the Great Meadows Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Tireless in her work in the community she had been sadly missed where she was accustomed to serve and her death comes as a distinct shock to her many friends in this community.
Mrs. Brownfield was the mother of two children, Ruth and William, both of whom died while at tender years. Two brothers, Moses H. Clark and John Clark, preceded her in death. She is survived by her husband and the following sisters and brother: Mrs. D. E. Bosley, Uniontown; Mrs. Luke Shaw, McClellandtown; Mrs. George Bosley, Menallen township, and Thomas Clark, South Union township.
Funeral services will be held from her late home on Morgantown street, Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock with interment in Oak Grove cemetery.
