Obituary

Ironton Weekly Republican, June 19, 1897 – Judge Milton L. Clark Dead.

Passes Away at a Ripe Age at Chillicothe Friday.

A Chillicothe dispatch says:  Judge Milton L. Clark, one of the best-known jurists in Ohio, died at his home in this city at 5 o’clock this evening.  He has been ailing for some time, but death resulted principally from the infirmities of old age.  He was born in this county on April 21, 1817, and was 80 years old at the time of his death.

He served two terms as a prosecutor in Ross county and, in 1849, was elected to the Ohio legislature.  He was also elected as the republican candidate to the constitutional convention in 1873 and was a delegate to the national republican convention in 1860, which nominated Lincoln.  In 1884 he was elected circuit judge in the Fourth Judicial District and six years later was re-elected.
