At the home of his son, H J. Halley, Jr., in Kansas City. Dr. H. J. Halley, aged 73 years passed away Tuesday Feb. 21; after a lingering illness of paralysis. Dr. Halley, had been in failing health for some time, but was not confined to his bed until about five weeks ago; his condition was not considered critical until Thursday of last week, when his daughter, Mrs. Willie Leonard, of this city was summoned to his bedside and remained until the end. The only other surviving daughter, Mrs. E. M. Edwards of Kansas City, was also with the father during the last days of his illness. The remains will arrive in Marshall Thursday on the 10:40 C & A., and will be taken immediately to the First Baptist Church, where the funeral will take place at 11 a.m., conducted by Rev. Otto S. Russell, after which the body will be laid to rest in Park Ridge beside the wife, who died in Dec. 1899.
Dr. Halley was born in Rappahannock County, Virginia, in 1831 and was reared here. After graduating from the Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia he came directly to Saline County and entered upon the practice of medicine in the Blackburn and Mt. Leonard neighborhoods and the leading physician in that part of the county until, on account of his failing, health, he retired from active work. In 1860 he was married to Miss Estaline Deal, daughter, of the late Capt. George W. Deal, who was a pioneer citizen of this county. Five children were born to this union, three of whom survive, those already mentioned.
Deceased made a visit to Missouri in 1856 and was so captivated with Saline County he returned to his home to make arrangements to move here and did so in the year stated above, and bought the farm near Blackburn, which was his home for about thirty-five years. During his long practice he made many warm friends for no one gets nearer and becomes dearer to a house-hold than a family physician, and Dr. Halley was one whom to know was to love, sympathetic, tender and genial in his nature, his visits to the sick and suffering always brought hope cheer. Faithful and, devoted in all the relations of life, an earnest, consecrated Christian, his life will be always a sweet and comforting memory not only to his own children, but to all with whom he was brought into close companionship in his profession and as a neighbor. Since the death of his wife the departed has made his home with his children.
