Young Lady Drowns In Blanco Canyon

Miss Grace Clark, daughter of W. Clark of the Amity community north of Dickens, was drowned Tuesday afternoon while bathing in Blanco Canyon and her remains were buried Wednesday in the Dickens cemetery.

Miss Clark and Miss Wilson, daughter of Minor Wilson, accompanied by Mr. Clark, had gone to Blanco to fish. The young ladies were bathing at the time of the accident, Miss Clark getting into deep water where she drowned before assistance could be rendered. Miss Clark was about twenty five years of age and had lived in Dickens county the greater part of her life. She had taught school a number of years in both the Liberty and Amity schools and was a lady of intelligence, lovable character and high accomplishments and numbered her friends by her acquaintances.

The Texas Spur joins the whole country in extending sincere sympathy to the family in this sad bereavement.
