Built in 1899 and dedicated on July 6, 1900, this library was financed with funds bequeathed by Dr. Clark, who was a prominent physician of Lockhart and San Antonio. A native of New Orleans, he was a graduate of Tulane Medical School and studied in Vienna, Austria. He was an eye, ear, nose, and throat specialist. He died, while still a young man, in New York City in 1897.

The building, an outstanding example of French Renaissance style, was designed and built by T.S. Hodges. When erected, it stood near the opera house, in the cultural center of Lockhart.
