Dies on Coast Sunday
Robert Alford. who was sick but a
few days at his home in Long Beach,
Calif., passed away there early Sun
day morning. Mr. Alford was born in
Ohio and came here with his parents
when a small boy. The parents died
some years ago, the father on October
5, 1S96, and the mother was killed
in a cyclone in 1913. Robert Alford
was united in marriage to Miss Susan
Stout in 1915. They farmed a por
tion of the time near Elmwood and a
number of years since they went to
the coast to reside, where they have
since remained.
The remains are being shipped to
Nehawka, leaving Long Beach Wed
nesday and are expected to arrive
here Saturday. The funeral and bur
ial will occur here either Saturday or
Sunday. A number of months age,
Mr. Alford was a visitor with rela
tives and friends here. Mr. Alford
leaves to mourn his departure, one
brother, Albert, together with his
wife, who 13 a sister of Mrs. V. P.
Sheldon. Also an uncle, Alvin A. Mc
Reynolds and family and Miss Lannas
McReynolds, all of Nehawka.
"The Country Doctor"
Dr. Douglas E. Hansen, a friend of
mankind and true humanitarian
"the country doctor" making
brave fight to serve a suffering patl
ent residing across the raging waters
of the swollen Weeping Water creek
lost his life early Friday morning.
And with his passing, Nehawka loses
more than a mere practitioner! No
fear in the mind of this matt, when
he found the waters too deep to -pass
thru with the borrowed auto of his
friend. Walter Wunderlich, after his
own car, watersoaked from the long
and heavy rain refused to start. Only
a determination to use every avail
able means of reaching the bedside
of a suffering patient, there to do
what aid he could. So, he secured a
horse and went forth. All went well
until they neared the entrance to the
bridge, over which water wa3 dash
ing madly. The force of the water
pushed the horse from the embank
ment into the water. The doctor be
came disengaged from the back of the
animal, which swam safely to the
further side of the stream, while Dr
Hansen attempted to swim for shore,
but the current like a raging mill
race, carried him down and engulfed
him in its treacherous muddines
against which it was of little avail to
fight. The unequal struggle was wit
nessed by some forty of his friends as
sembied on tne uanK, and among
whom was his brother. Warren, who
had advised him not to attempt such
a Hazardous crosing.
The body was recovered during the
afternoon as the waters subsided, and
was buried at West Point, his old
boyhood home. Thus went the way
of the earth, a "country doctor," who
against the elements, the bad roads,
the weather, the heat, the cold, the
darkness and uncertainty of the
bleakest nights, was ever faithful to
tho high calling of his profession
ready to minister unto his fellowman
and do his utmost to bring health and
hope to those who were sick.
He, like that Great Physician, the
Master of heaven and earth, continued
to serve until the strength of his body
was overpowered and his life, wiped
out by the treacherous waters.
People of Nehawka and vicinity,
who have been so faithfully served by
Dr. Hansen during the two years of
his residence here, will never forget
his sterling qualities or how he met
death in the performance of his mis
sion a martyr to the uplifting of
humanity.
All honor to him and to the thous
ands of other "country doctors" who
like this good man, stand ready at
all times to meet the emergencies of
their profession.
