Frank Harter Rites Set; City Resident Since 1897
Services for Frank S. Harter, 83-year-old retired retail dairyman who had lived here since 1897, will be held at 2 p.m. Monday at Ed C. Smith & Bro. Funeral Home with Dr. Harrison Baker officiating.
Entombment will be in Hillcrest Mausoleum.
Harter died Friday night at his home, 822 Harter Road.
He was born near Colfax, Iowa, and came with his family to Texas in a covered wagon in 1874. They settled at Cambridge in Clay County, which later was renamed Henrietta.
Harter lived there 20 years, and was on cattle drives to Kansas. Tex Rickard, later to become the famed boxing promoter, was town marshal and Harter's friend in Henrietta. Harter was, for a time, a professional baseball player.
Harter moved to Dallas 58 years ago and entered the harness business. Some 20 years later he moved to a farm east of White Rock Lake and started his retail dairy.
Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Truda Harter; a daughter, Mrs. Ben K. Schmid of Dallas; a brother Will Harter of San Angelo; two stepsons, J.P. Davie of Dallas and J.C. Carroll of Pittsburg, Camp County; a stepdaughter, Mrs. G.T. Hill; two grandchildren and a great-grandson; six step grandchildren, a niece, Mrs. Grace Burrough, Fort Worth.
