Funeral services Held for Dana Hale Sunday P.M.
Dana Jay Hale was born January 9, 1900 on the E.I. Duncan farm west of Delphos and died in General Hospital, Kansas City, Missouri, September 23, 1925, at the age of twenty five years, eight months and fourteen days.
Dana was sick by fifteen hours before his death, which was caused by heart trouble. He departed this life before his parents could be summoned to be with him.
Dana came to Delphos in 1902. He attended Delphos schools, and graduated from high school in 1918. As soon as he was old enough Dana responded to the call of his country. He enlisted in the SATC at Lawrence, September 16, 1918, and was honorably discharged at the close of the world war.
At the time of his death, Dana was a junior in the K.U. medical school at Kansas City. He was a registered pharmacist in Kansas and held the degrees P.H.G. and A.B. He would have received his M.D. in 1927. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge of Delphos, of the Elks Lodge of Lawrence, Kansas, the Phi Beta Pi Fraternity and the First Presbyterian Church of Delphos.
The survivors of the deceased are his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Hale, and one sister Edna Hale.
Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian Church here Sunday, September 27, 1925, with the Rev. M.E. Dunbar, Presbyterian Minister at Minneapolis in charge. Interment was in the Delphos Cemetery.
In another column:
Dana Jay Hale, one of Delphos’ most promising young men, grew from babyhood to young manhood in the vicinity of Delphos and was loved or respected by all who knew him.
Dana began school in the Delphos grade school and graduated from the high school in 1918. The class of 1918 was composed of ten members, five boys and five girls. And in the seven years since graduation Dana is the third to have passed from the school of life. James F. Wright and Harlan Warren having succumbed to influenza while it raged during the war period in 1918 preceded Dana.
During the war Dana enlisted in the SATC University of Kansas at Lawrence. And while yet in the service was stricken with influenza, the same epidemic to which his other classmates succumbed, but while weakened, Dana recovered and continued his military and college work with untiring zeal.
Dana’s heart was injured while in high school. This, combined with the attack of influenza at the beginning of his University together with his untiring efforts prompted by a determination that did not allow rest, was more than the physical body could withstand. And the heart stopped before the goal was reached, but fighting still.
Dana was an industrious, untiring worker. He had set his mark high and was determined that it should not be lowered. He was not content to give up his school work or to be a burden to his parents during the distressing crop failure years. But while carrying on of the stiffest of the University courses, spent all available time after school hours in working, being employed as a drug clerk. He was a registered pharmacist.
Dana died in a city away from relatives and the closest of friends and the consolation that would come therefrom. However, he “passed on” at the wheel doing the thing he wished to do, felt that he should do, and had determined to do. He would have been dissatisfied elsewhere. And died with that satisfaction that comes to one who is doing good work, well.
Dana’s body was brought home to a shocked and sorrowing community. And amidst old scenes and friends, was laid to rest in a mountain of flowers by loving Masonic brothers.
Dana “died where manhood’s morning almost touches noon, and while the shadows still were falling toward the west. He had not passed on life’s highway the stone that marks the highest point; but weary for a moment, he lay down by the wayside, and using his burden for a pillow, fell into that dreamless sleep that kisses down the eyelids still. While yet in love with life, and raptured with the world, he passed to silence and pathetic dust.”
“Yet, after all, it may be best, just in the happiest, sunniest hour of all the voyage, while eager winds are kissing every sail, to dash against the unseen rock, and in an instant hear the billows roar above a sunken ship.
For whether in mid sea or ‘mong the breakers of the farther shore, a wreck at last must mark the end of each and all.”
