Name: Dr. Francis (Frank) Hale Hemphill

Note: "He began the study of medicine in 1894 at the Central Medical College of St. Joseph, Missouri, and he graduated with the class of 1898. His first year as a medical practitioner was spent at Starfield, Missouri. During the following two years he practiced at Chili, Indiana, and it was at the close of that period that he came to Seelyvile and enrolled his name among its medical practitioners. During the intervening period he built up a good practice and has established a reputation as an able and skillful doctor. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound (suicide). Dr. Hemphill was a member of the Church of God, and had memberships with the Masonic Lodge at Brazil, Indiana, the Knights of Pythias at Seelyville, and the Modern Woodmen of the World at Terre Haute.
