Clarke, 69, founder of the Billy Sunday Memorial Taber- nacle at Sioux City, Iowa, and its first pastor, died on Monday, Oct. 14 at Central Baptist hospital of cereb- ral hemorrhage after an illness of 'about 4 weeks. Dr. Clarke was born in Cardiff, Wales in 1889 and was reared in an orphanage. He served about eight years in the British Merchant Marine. He came to Canada and the United States in his early twenties and en- tered the Moody Bible Institute, Chi- cago. For about eight years Rev. Mr. Clarke was associated with the re- nowned evangelist, Rev, Billy Sunday as campaign director, song leader and Bible study leader. After Mr. Sunday died in 1985 Rev. Mr. Clarke continued in evangelistic work which took him to Sioux City in 1938.-- Here he found- ed the Billy Sunday Memorial Taber- nacle. The first church services were held under an apple tree, later in a tent before the church building was erected: That building was razed by fire and a new church erected, which was later sold, to be followed by yet another building. In 1946 Rev. Mr. Clarke. returned to the evangelistic work for a time but failing health forced him to give up and he and Mrs. Clarke went to Lexington where they founded the Berean Baptist Church about a year ago. -- Beside his widow he is survived by three children, a brother and three sisters, of- whom Mrs. Oliver Reader and Mrs. Grace Teel of Port Perry are two.
