• Notes

  We regret to report the death of Mrs. Tom Clemens, which occurred at the High River home of her sister-in-law, Mrs. A. L. Clemens, with whom she had resided for several years. The late Mrs. Clemens was for several years a resident of Strathmore. Her husband, Mr Tom Clemens, is in Eastern Canada and the body is being shipped to Kitchener Ontario, for burial. Mrs. Clemens was 35 years of age, and leaves a large circle of friends to mourn her loss. The Strathmore Standard, March 7, 1923, Page 2.
