Harry B. Dulaney, President of the Dulaney National Bank of Marshall, died at his home on North Sixth Street, early Sunday morning. He had been in poor health for several months but was able to be up and about town, making an occasional visit to the bank, and his friends were unaware that his condition was serious. His death which occurred while he was asleep, was the result of a heart attack. He had retired Saturday night, feeling about as usual, but when his wife, Mrs. Edith Prevo Dulaney went to his room to call him at 7 o'clock Sunday morning she found that he ad died a short time before without arousing from his sleep. Dr. Davis Illyes, who was summoned immediately, said that death was due to heart failure and had occurred about five o'clock.
Immediate relatives surviving are the wife, Mrs. Edith Prevo Dulaney, one son, Captain Robert L. Dulaney of the U. S. Army and now stationed at Ft. Hamilton, Brooklyn, New York and one sister, Mrs. J. R. Burnett, of Marshall.
The funeral was held at the residence at 2 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon, and was in charge of the Rev. Maude Bristol, minister of the local Congregational Church. Burial was in the Marshall cemetery.
Harry B. Dulaney was born in Marshall, June 14, 1856, his death occurring at the age of 81 years, 5 months and 6 days, being at the time of his death the oldest native born citizen of Marshall. His parents were Robert L. and Elizabeth Bartlett Dulaney. The father, Robert L. Dulaney, cam to Marshall from Virginia in 1852 ……(unreadable line).
For ten years he serves as Commissioner of the State Prisons under governors Oglesby and Cullom. He later entered the law practice and was associated with Judge Constable and Thomas J. Golden. He retired from the practice of law in 1879 and shortly thereafter engaged in the banking business. The son, Harry B. Dulaney, was given the active management of the business of the bank known as the R. L. Dulaney & Company bank, and thus he began a banking career that has never been surpassed by any banker in this section of the country.
In preparation for this successful career it may be noted that he received his education in the Marshall schools, Notre Dame University and Butler College at Crawfordsville, Ind.
The bank of R. L. Dulaney & Company became a national institution in 1892 under the name of the Dulaney National Bank, which name it bears today, and Harry B. Dulaney became its Vice President with Thomas J. Golden as President. Mr. Golden retired in 1911 and Mr. Dulaney became the bank's President which position he held until his death.
Under his management the Dulaney national Bank became a famed financial institution, safe for those who entrusted money to its care, and helpful to those who needed financial aid. During the bank crisis of a few years ago it attracted wide attention by the way it weathered the financial storms that spread over the country destroying many banks less ably managed.
On November 26, 1882, he was married to Miss Sarah E. Birch, daughter of Dr. J. C. Birch, a prominent physician of Marshall. She died May 5, 1896. On May 25, 1901 he was married to Miss Edith Prevo, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Prevo, people of high standing and great popularity. To this union one child, Robert L., who is now a Captain in the United States Army, was born. Mr. Dulaney had a broad affiliation with fraternal organizations being a member of the Knights of Pythias, Elks, court of Honor and Modern Woodmen.
This short sketch deals mainly with Mr. Dulaneys work as a banker, but aside from this he was a public spirited citizen always ready to aid with counsel and financial assistance any enterprise helpful to Marshall, to its schools, its churches and its citizens.
