PNEUMONIA CALLS PIONEER DOCTOR
County Health Officer Dr. J. H. Hansen one of the best-known physicians of the county passed away at his home at Grandfield at 1 o'clock Monday morning of pneumonia after a nine days illness.
Dr. and Mrs. Hansen spent part of the winter at Galveston and had been home but a week when he was taken sick with pneumonia. His condition became so serious that all his children were sent for and they were all present several days before the end came.
He was born at Copenhagen, Denmark, June 24, 1847. When 10 years of age he accompanied his parents to Council Bluffs, Iowa, where he grew to manhood.
While too young to enlist in the Civil war he later saw service against the Indians in the west. Upon being discharged, he taught school in Iowa.
He was married to Miss Anna Elizabeth Turnbow at Mayfield, Ky, July 4, 1876. This couple lived at that place 10 years. In 1881 he graduated from the Louisville School of Medicine after which he engaged actively in the profession without interruption up to the past few months.
From Mayfield, Mr. Hansen, wife, and two children moved to Lamoni, Iowa, where they lived until 1900 when the family moved to Vernon, Texas. At the opening of the Big Pasture, Mr. Hansen was one of the persons fortunate enough to purchase a homestead and filed on this tract at Frederick in the spring of 1907. The homestead was near the present town of Grandfield where Dr. Hansen and family later moved.
He was well known all over this county making the race for member of the legislature in the Democratic primary in 1912 and receiving a splendid vote. He was a member of the Masonic, Odd Fellows, and Woodmen of the World orders, the Masons having charge of the funeral services which were preached by Rev T. E. Carter, pastor of the Grandfield Baptist church, at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon. He was laid to rest in the Grandfield cemetery.
Mrs. Hansen and the following children survive-- Hortense, wife of J. L. Williams of Chicago, Audentia, wife of Major L. L. Hopwood of the U S Army stationed at Corpus Christi, Texas. Zenobia, wife of John F. Holt of Sherman, Texas, but formerly of Frederick, Dr. J. Harvey Hansen of Rolla, Kansas, Fred J. Hansen of Walter, county attorney of Cotton county, Docia, residing at home.

Introducing Lamoni's Pioneer Doctor
Dr. J. H. Hansen was born in Denmark, but emigrated to this country with his parents when only nine years old, and located in Pottawattamie County, Iowa.
He received a liberal education in the Council Bluffs schools, and also attended the Fanning College of Kentucky, and graduated from the Louisville Medical College.
The doctor has been practicing medicine in Lamoni [Iowa] for thirteen years and is now the pioneer physician of the city. He has taken two postgraduate courses during his residence here, one at New York in 1892, and one at St. Louis in 1894.
The most important thing to a community is the health of the inhabitants. A learned and skilled physician is always in demand, and too high an estimate cannot be placed on him, and Dr. Hansen certainly fills all the requirements in that line.
We found the doctor in his office, one door north of the State Bank with a large library of well-chosen books, and on his table, we found the latest magazines so that he can keep posted on all the latest advancements in medical science, for he believes in progress. He has a fine set of surgical instruments, and as a surgeon has met with fair success in that branch of his profession.
Dr. Hansen was the first mayor of the city, and has been a member of the board of education five years, three years of which he was president of that body, and is now a director of Graceland College.
The doctor is devoting a portion of his time to the study of the germ causes of diseases, and has an excellent bacteriological microscope, culture oven, and other apparatus for the development and examination of disease germs, and showed the writer the germs of diphtheria, consumption, typhoid fever, and other diseases.
Dr. Hansen has been one of the city's most public-spirited citizens and has contributed very liberally toward all public enterprises.
