Charlotte, Dec. 29—Fire threatened the destruction of the home of David Clark in Myers Park, the blaze originating in the furnace room in the basement at 20 a.m. Tuesday.
Mrs. Clark was sick in bed at the time and was taken to the residence of Edwin Cansler Jr.
Th severest loss was that of a handsome oil painting of the late Judge Walter Clark of the State Supreme Court, M. Clark’s father, and two of Mr. Clark’s brothers, the portrait having been made when they were children.
Mr. Clark was unable to estimate the damage but said it was partially covered by insurance.
