Individual Notes
• Frank Clark was born in Sacramento – never any account - never stayed home - never married - a nuisance to May and Emily till he died. Never did any harm - just no good. My memory of him is setting at the piano and singing songs, with a ‘story’ like ‘The Man on the Flying Trapeze,’ ‘The Captain with his Whiskers,’ ‘Poor Nellie Gray,’ etc. He was small, very dark, with a villain's moustache. [6, pp. 3 & 4, lines 130-134]
