Co. Death Record Susie Clark age 40 b/Wa died 7-23-1898 Everett Daily Herald 12-25-1914 Hale and hearty, J. J. Clark, a real pioneer of Everett, celebrated his 76th birthday anniversary yesterday. He was here before Everett really arrived, and has been closely identified with the city' progress from the time the first surveys were run. He came to Everett in 1891, and for 23 years had been an optimist among the most optimistic in regards to the certainty of the city's future. Much that he foresaw years ago has been realized, but the progress toward that ultimate Everett he has long cherished is still in the making, but each year brings the community a bit nearer the vision seen by Clark years ago, and he is content. "This is my 76th birthday", he stated yesterday. "I have been in active business on my own account for 58 years and never lost a day from my office. On applying to enlist in the United States army in 1861 for the North, I was turned down by the medical department at Fort Porter, Buffalo, for physical inability and advised to take lessons in physical culture to increase heart and long power Since then I have followed directions and have consequently never been sick and have retained full strength during my business career though I have been subjected to the trial test of several financial reverses. I have never been down by defeat or over-elated with success, but have kept pushing along, realizing that the world has no use for losers. "I first visited Everett in January, 1891, and saw a future for the city as the greatest center for lumbering and its co-industries in the world. Today I have witnessed developments in confirmation of my original impression. Our great present hope is that we will be blessed with city official servants that are honest in the interests of the people so that we older pioneers may finally see the full realization of our fond anticipations."
