On board the ''David Scott'', East Indiaman, off the Cape of Good Hope, Mrs Clerk, wife to Lieut. Col. Clark, of the Madras establishment. ... '''Her remains were preserved in spirits''' until the 31st December following, when they were interred at St. Helena with all suitable attention, and followed to the grave by all the passengers of the fleet, and the greater part of the inhabitants of that island."

Scott” for burial on 1 January 1805. Also see Jackson, Helen.
