sent to Camp Funston, where he was
assigned to the medical corps.
From there he went with his divi
sion to France and was there eleven
months before being sent home after
the signing of the Armistice.
Harvey was discharged from the
army service in June, 1919, somewhat
broken in health, but with his ambi
tion still for a college degree so he re
entered Monmouth College in the fall
of 1919 and was graduated with the
class of 1920 and received the A. B.
degree. It was his unusual nerve that
helped him finish his college course
suffering as he must have done from
an infected spine.
After graduation from college he
spent the summer at the farm home
in an effort to regain his strength,
failing to do so he went to the Gov
ernment hospital at St. Louis for a
surgical operation in the hope of stay
ing the disease. He remained there

brought home and was under the care

mother, confined to his bed without
much change in his condition until
the end of 1923. At the suggestion of
the physicians in charge on New Years
day, 1923, in company with his father
and mother Harvey went to southern
California where he seemed to gain
considerable strength and was able to
get about with a cane, quite combort
ably.
Anxious to see the home folks, in
company with Henry Sunda, he came
back to Ewing the last of August and
remained here until the 21st of Octo
ber, when with his father and mother
he returned to California realizing
the turn the disease had taken, he
could not hope for recovery, but de
sirous to end his days in the Cali
fornia climate where he could get
about more easily when the winter
came on. On the way he contracted
a cold which in his weakened condition
he could not throw off and he passed
away peacefully on Sabbath morning.
