1914 A trip back to England to visit their relatives was planned. On May 28, 1914 the Empress of Ireland sailed with Clement, Sarah, Madge Gray and little Mary aboard.
The ship was going from the St. Lawrence River into the Atlantic Ocean. There it was struck by a coal barge
and sank. Sarah's body floated to shore immediately, with her bags of valuables.
Three weeks later, Clement's body was found by divers. He was pinned beneath some dining room chairs. Madge Gray and little Mary's bodies were never found.
Buried in Highland Lawn Cemetery, Terre Haute, Vigo, Indiana, USA 14 July 1914.
