5/1/1874 > Judge Dwight H. CLARK died at the St. James Hotel in Oxford on the 17th ult., aged 55 years. The citizens of Chenango County recognized Judge Clark's legal ability in 1850 by making him District Attorney, which office he held for three years, and in 1855 he was elected County Judge. After a trial of four years in this highly responsible office, he was re-elected in 1859 and continued to discharge its duties until the close of December, 1863, a period of eight years.
