THOMAS CLARK DIES OF WOUND Southern Railway Employe Was Shot Down in Stockbridge, Ga. Thomas Clark, aged 21 years, an employe of the Southern railway, who was shot through the lungs by an un known party Friday night while walking down the streets of Stock bridge, Ga., his home town, died at a private sanitarium in Atlanta Sun day afternoon. Pneumonia devel oped shortly after Mr. Clark was wounded, which hastened death. He never rega’ned complete conscious ness. Mr. Clark was the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Clark, of Stockbridge, and was a member of the bridge force of the Southern road at Stockbringe, a few miles above McDonough. * The shooting occurred Friday night at 10 o’clock, as Mr. Clark and his two friends, Bunn Hightower, and another young man, were walking down the street in Stockbridge. It is the supposition that a negro man, who is now lodged in the McDonough jail, was the slayer of Mr. Clark. Several shots were fired, one taking effect in Mr. Clark’s right lung and ranging diagonally through the body. Another shot passed through Mr. Hightower’s hat, and the remaining shot flew wide of its mark.
