HERBERT HALEY DIES FOLLOWING OPERATION
Fruit Orchard Manager Was Graduate of m. S. C. - Funeral to Be Tomorrow
Orange, March 14 - Herbert Francis Haley, 25, son of former Selectman and Mrs Thomas F Haley and one of the best known and most promising young men at Orange, died last night at the Franklin County hospital at Greenfield as a result of peritionitis which developed following an operation for appendicitis. He was born and grew up in this town, attending the grad schools and being graduated from the high school in the class of 1928. He played on the football team. during these years he became interested in orcharding, as the result of his father's apple-growing enterprises and enrolled as a student at Stockbridge school at State College from which he was graduated in 1930.
He specialized in fruit culture and after graduation returned to Orange and became associated with his father in the apple-growing business. He was keenly interested in the busiiness and assumed charge of it in the absence of his father on state welfare work. His success in developing the Haley orchards to a high state of productivity and in enlarging them to proportions surpassing any in this immediate section was reason for much favorable comment upon the part of the orchardists.
January 2, 1933, he was married to Miss M Elizabeth Whitney, daughter of Mr and Mrs Oakley Whitney of Orange and he leaves besides his widow, a daughter, Diane, one year old; his parents; a brother, Edward of West Springfield. He was a grandson of the late Deputy Sheriff Edward Fowler, who for so many years was chairman of the board of selectman of Orange. His grandmother, Mrs. Edward Fowler, and his paternal grandfather, James Haley, also survive. The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon at 4 at Higgins Funeral home on Grove street.
