"HENRY F. M'DANIEL EXPIRES SATURDAY - Rites For Prominent Farmer Tuesday - Henry Franklin McDaniel, age 87 years, prominent Boone county farmer and business man and former Indiana champion tomato grower, passed away Saturday evening at 5:30 o'clock at his home in State Road 32 at the west edge of the city. His death was caused by cerebral hemorrhage and followed an illness of two weeks duration, occurring two days after he and Mrs. McDaniel had marked their sixty-sixth wedding anniversary. Until stricken two weeks ago he was in good health and quite active.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the Dover Christian Church with a nephew, the Rev. Ora McDaniel of Advance, officiating, assisted by the Rev. Raymond Duff, pastor of the Dover Church. Burial will be in the cemetery at Dover. A service for the immediate family will be held in the home. The body was removed from the Lawler funeral home Sunday to the residence where friends may call until noon on Tuesday.
Pallbearers will be Leo Taylor, Winfred Ginn, James McDaniel, Haven Rice, Frank Poynter, all grandsons of Mr. McDaniel, and Earl Hartman, a nephew.
Mr. McDaniel was a native of Montgomery county and was a son of Thomas and Susan Brite (Kirkpatrick) McDaniel, both of whom were born in Kentucky. Most of his life was spent in Boone county and he was the last of an old pioneer family that helped pave the way for agricultural progress in this county. He lived on his farm one mile north of Dover until 1914 when he moved to his present home where he resided the past thirty-two years.
He was in the real estate and insurance business in Lebanon with a partnership with John W. Jones for eighteen years, retiring several years ago but continuing with the active management of his agricultural interests. He kept abreast of the times and throughout the years incorporated progressive ideas and practices in the development of his farm and the tilling of the land.
At the age of 78, Mr. McDaniel won the distinction of being named the tomato king of Indiana in 1937 and received the championship award at Purdue University.
He was a member of the Christian Church at Dover and the I. O. O. F. Lodge at Shannondale.
He was married in Boone county on October 24, 1880, to Clara Randel, who survives. They had the unusual privilege of observing their sixty-sixth wedding anniversary on Thursday of last week.
Other survivors are two children, Mrs. Orval V. Taylor of west of Lebanon and Buren McDaniel of Lebanon; five grandchildren, James McDaniel, Mrs. Frank Poynter, Leo Taylor, Mrs. Haven Rice and Mrs. Winfred Ginn, and five great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by four brothers, Samuel, James, George and William McDaniel, and four sisters, Alice Hartman Gentry, Sarah Bymaster, Martha Gregory and Lou Randel."
