ALFRED W. HADLEY, M. D. has proved in his technical skill, his earnest service and his loyalty the consistency of his choice of vocation, and he is one of the successful and popular physicians and surgeons of Marion County, where he is established in general practice at Maywood.

Doctor Hadley finds satisfaction in claiming Indiana as the place of his nativity, his birth having occurred in the year 1873, on the paternal home farm near Mooresville, Morgan County. He is a son of James N. and Almira (Harvey) Hadley and is a grandson of John and Elva (Chamness) Hadley. John Hadley was born and reared in North Carolina and from Guilford County, that state, he came to Indiana and numbered himself among the very early settlers of Morgan County. He made the long overland journey on horseback and entered claim to a tract of wild land, upon which he built a primitive log cabin that was to serve as the pioneer home of his family, the members of which here joined him about a year later, in 1821.

John Hadley reclaimed from the forest wilds a f productive farm, and his son James N. proved his worthy successor as an exponent of farm industry in Morgan County. James N. Hadley and his wife continued to reside on their old home farm in Morgan County until the close of their earnest and worthy lives, and the mortal remains of both rest in the cemetery at Mooresville, that county.

The childhood and early youth of Dr. Alfred W. Hadley were compassed by the environment and influences of the old home farm that had been obtained by his paternal grandfather in the pioneer period of Morgan County history, and a part of his childhood was passed in the old log house of which mention has been made in a preceding paragraph. He is indebted to the rural schools of the old home community for his preliminary education, and as boy and youth he gave active assistance in the work of the farm. He continued his studies by entering the high school at Mooresville, and in that school he was graduated in 1892. He put his acquirements to practical test and utility by devoting some time to teaching in the public schools, and in the meanwhile he advanced his academic education by attending the Indiana Normal University. His ambition led him to formulate definite plans for his future career, and in consonance with those plans he finally entered the medical department of the University of Indiana. In this institution he was graduated as a member of the class of 1910.

Doctor Hadley. was residing in Sullivan County at the time the nation became involved in the World war, and he forthwith enlisted for service in the Medical Corps, United States Army, he having received at Fort Riley the office of first lieutenant, and having later been in service at Camp Kearney, California. He continued on active duty until the armistice brought the great world conflict to its close, was mustered out at Denver, Colorado, and after receiving his honorable discharge he established his residence at Maywood, where he has since continued in the active general practice of his profession and where he has gained rank as one of the representative physicians and surgeons of Marion County. Doctor Hadley is a lieutenant colonel in the Medical Reserve Corps of the United States Army, with assignment to the Eighty-fourth Division. He has active membership in the Marion County Medical Society, the Indiana State Medical Society and the American Medical Association. He takes loyal interest in all that concerns the welfare and advancement of his home community, is a Republican in political alignment, and he and his wife have membership in the Methodist Episcopal Church. One of the interesting experiences gained by Doctor Hadley in the period of his youth was that of serving as a member of the Columbian Guard at the World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893. He thus assisted in directing traffic at the great exposition, besides having an opportunity to view the wonderful sights and exhibits of that memorable World's Fair. He is one of the progressive and public-spirited citizens of Maywood and is affiliated with the Masonic fraternity.

The first marriage of Doctor Hadley was with Miss Martha Hall, daughter of Daniel and Harriet (Manners) Hall, and the children of this union are six in number, namely: Georgia, Frederick, Walter, Arthur, Ellen and Laura. The second marriage of the Doctor was with Miss Ocy Fairburn, daughter of William and Alice (Hance) Fairburn, and the one child of this marriage is a fine son, Max.

Doctor Hadley continues a close student along professional lines, keeps in touch with the advances made in medical and surgical science, and gives the utmost loyalty and efficiency to his professional service, his practice being of substantial and representative order.

DR. ASA O. RUSE is a physician and surgeon who for a third of a century has lived in the Clermont community of Marion County, his home being ten miles from the Circle at Indianapolis. He is a man of unusual qualifications for his profession for all those duties comprised in good citizenship. He has lived and worked among the people of Clermont and from them he has received tokens of appreciation based upon their confidence in his professional skill and his complete integrity as a man.

Doctor Ruse was born in Pike Township, Marion County, in 1870, son of Thomas and Maria (McCurdy) Ruse. His grandfather, Jesse Ruse, came to Indiana from Ohio and was one of the earliest farmers in Huntington County. Thomas Ruse was born in Huntington County, and moved when a young man to Marion County and bought the land that came to be known as the Ruse farm. He was a Union soldier in the Civil war, serving in the Army of the Cumberland until the close of hostilities. He and his wife are deceased and both are buried in the Crown Hill Cemetery.

Asa O. Ruse grew up on a farm with just the normal advantages and opportunities of an Indiana farm boy. Beyond such training as he could acquire in the common schools he had to use his own initiative and industry, and he went through a program of hard work and considerable self-denial in getting his education. He was doing almost a man's work on the farm at the age of fourteen. After attending school in Pike Township he did work at the Indiana Normal School at Danville, following which he taught for two years in Pike Township. The money he made as a teacher and at farm work he used to pay his expenses while in Indiana University. He completed the course and received his M. D. degree there, and immediately located at Clermont, where he has been practicing medicine and surgery for thirty-two years. In his early experience as a physician he went through much of the routine imposed upon the pioneer doctors. He walked or rode horseback over roads that were frequently almost impassable, and never failed to respond to calls for his services, giving the best he had without thought of compensation.

Doctor Ruse married, May 30, 1891, Miss Cora Foreman, daughter of Charles and Martha (Arnold) Foreman. Her father was a well-to-do farmer in Pike Township and both her parents were buried in Crown Hill Cemetery.

Doctor Ruse is president, a director, and was one of the organizers of the Speedway Bank. He is a Scottish Rite Mason and Shriner, is an elder in his church, a Democrat in politics, and has found many opportunities to give his influence in a helpful way to the progress of the community. He was one of the men in the rural district of Marion County actively interested in getting adequate telephone service at a time when there was what was called a "telephone war," and he was one of the builders of an independent telephone plant and serves as its secretary and treasurer and general manager. He also owned a valuable farm, but has since sold this property.

MAJ. JOHN McFADDEN. Among the men well known in civil and military life and in business and public affairs few have won greater recognition and respect because of their integrity and service than Maj. John McFadden, a veteran of the Spanish American war and assessor of Calumet Township, Lake County, whose home is at Gary. Major McFadden during a long and honorable career has been identified with a number of activities, in all of which he has won universal respect and esteem, and while he is now nearing the Psalmist's three-score-and-ten years, he still carries on his labors with the zest and enthusiasm of youth.

John McFadden was born August 13, 1862, at New York City, New York, and is a son of Michael and' Margaret (O'Hare) McFadden, natives of Ireland, who came to the United States as children with their parents. Grandfather McFadden was a civil engineer by profession and came to this country alone, later sending for his wife and family. When they arrived, however, he had disappeared, and it has always been thought that he met his death at the hands of Indians. The O'Hare family were ship captains and settled in Canada, subsequently moving to New York City. Michael McFadden was a merchant at New York City for many years, but later moved to Cambridge, Henry County, Illinois, where he opened the first department store in the Middle West, and operated it for a long period before moving to Danville, Illinois, and finally went to Chicago, where he passed his last years. He died in 1904 and is buried in old Calvary Cemetery, New York City, while his wife survived him until 1920 and was laid to rest in Calvary Cemetery, Chicago, Illinois. There were eight children in the family, of whom Major McFadden was the eldest.

Maj. John McFadden attended the public grade and high schools of New York City and Cambridge, Illinois, and on attaining his majority engaged in the general merchandise business at Cambridge with his father. His business ability was soon recognized by his appointment to the cashiership of the Farmers National Bank of Cambridge, a position which he filled for ten years, and he then moved to Chicago and went into the real estate business, in which he continued to be engaged until 1893. He was then made cashier of the United States internal revenue department, with offices in the Federal Building, in Chicago, but in 1903 resigned and returned to Cambridge, where he organized the bank and was its cashier until 1906. He then went again to Chicago, but in July, 1906, became one of the first permanent residents of Gary, building a home on the banks of the Grand Calumet, where he remained for some time, in the meanwhile being engaged in the coal business. He disposed of his interests in that direction in 1911. In 1908 he was first elected assessor of Calumet Township, a position which he has retained to the present with offices in the courthouse. His official record is a splendid one and he has the unqualified confidence of his fellow-citizens who recognize his efficiency and unfailing courtesy. He is a member of the Commercial Club and Chamber of Commerce, the Gary Country Club, the Dunes Acres Club, the Masons, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and the Loyal Order of Moose, and in his political allegiance is a Republican.

Major McFadden's military career dates from November 21, 1879, when he enlisted as a private in Company E, Fourteenth Battalion, I. N. G., which company subsequently became Company D, Sixth Infantry, I. N. G., and in May, 1881, he was appointed corporal. In July of the same year he was promoted sergeant, and in October, first sergeant. In June, 1882, he was elected second lieutenant, in May, 1883, was made first lieutenant, and in June, 1884, was elected captain, being reelected to a second term in 1887. In August, 1889, he was elected major, his term expiring in August, 1894. About this time he was appointed cashier of the internal revenue office at Chicago and moved to that city, and November 19, 1895, was elected captain of Company M, Second Infantry, I. N. G., which rank he held when the company was mustered into the United States service May 16, 1898, for participation in the Spanish-American war. Possessed of rare executive ability, his success, as shown by the high state of discipline and drill by his company, was the subject of general remark. Shortly after the arrival of the company at Jacksonville, Florida, in May, 1898, Captain McFadden was detailed as acting depot commissary of the then growing Seventh Army Corps. At this time the corps was being organized, and with a regiment arriving almost every day until the total number of men he was called upon to ration reached 32,000, his task was no sinecure by any means. When the regularly detailed depot commissary arrived Captain McFadden's splendid work was recognized by his being detailed on the staff of General Arnold, commanding the Second Division, Seventh Corps, as commissiary of subsistence, and he performed the duties of this trying office in the same efficient manner until he was relieved in September. His fame as an executive officer spread, and upon his return to his company Colonel Moulton detailed him to take charge of the regimental bakery and exchange. His conduct of both was the wonder and admiration of the entire regiment, and up to the time of his mustering out he continued in charge, and through his administrative ability the exchange paid into the several company funds on an average of $150 per month. In January, 1899, while the regiment was in Cuba, Captain Thompson, the regimental ordnance officer and commissary of subsistence, was detailed as inspector of police for the City of Havana and Captain McFadden was detailed to act in his stead. Notwithstanding that he ever kept a fatherly eye upon his own company and acted as regimental treasurer, he also performed his other duties, including those of the regimental bakery and exchange, in a manner which won for him the highest commendation on all sides.

At Chicago, Illinois, Major McFadden was united in marriage with Miss Sarah S. Spangler, daughter of Jacob and Rachael (McDonough) Spangler. Jacob Spangler was born in Pickaway County, Ohio, where he received a public school education, and became a farmer and stock raiser. When still a young man he moved to McDonough County, Illinois, where he married and continued to be engaged in agricultural pursuits throughout the remainder of his career, dying at Macomb, in 1904. He was an active member of the Presbyterian Church and of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Mrs. Spangler was born near Dayton, Ohio, but as a child was brought by her parents to McDonough County, Illinois, where she received her public school education. She died at Gary in 1912 and was laid to rest at the side of her husband in the cemetery at Macomb, Illinois. Mrs. Fadden was educated in the public schools of Illinois and the State Normal School of Macomb, and previous to her marriage taught public school at Macomb. In 1894 she went to Chicago, where she was employed in the internal revenue service offices for eleven years and then accompanied her husband to Gary, where she has since assisted him, first in the coal business, and later in the assessor's office, where she is still employed. Theirs has indeed been a happy married life, and they have labored together in perfect harmony for more than thirty-four years. Mrs. McFadden is past regent of Pottawotamie Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, of Gary, and has been state chairman and director of the Northern District of Indiana in the State Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and is now (1931) state vice regent of Indiana. She is a member of the Gary Woman's Club and the Gary Business and Professional Women's Club, is patroness of the Pi Sigma Phi sorority, and is associated with her husband in the auxiliaries of the various organizations of which he is a member. They reside in a beautiful home at 768 Tyler Street, Gary.

F. M. CLARK is representative of a family that came to Indiana in 1850. His own career has been that of an agriculturist and he has one of the attractive farm places of Marion County, seven and a half miles from Indianapolis. This farm comprises 250 acres.

It was on this farm that he was born May 10, l862. He is a son of Alfred and Sarah (Eaker) Clark. The Clark family were of Scotch-Irish ancestry and the first of the name to come to this country was John D. Clark, who settled in Maryland. He was one of Maryland's volunteers at the time of the Revolutionary war and served on the staff of General Francis Marion. He was wounded in the final battle at Yorktown and his death some years later was the result of this wound. A son of the Revolutionary soldier was Daniel Clark, who went to Pennsylvania. Isaac G. Clark, son of Daniel, married Catheryn Miller, lived in Ohio for some years and in 1850 moved from Butler County, that state, by covered wagon into Indiana, making the trip over the Brookville Road and locating in Marion County.

Mr. Clark's father, Alfred Clark, was born in Butler County, Ohio, and was a child when brought to Indiana. His wife, Sarah Elizabeth Eaker, was a daughter of Joseph and Mary (Stuart) Eaker. Mary Stuart was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and was a neighbor of President James Buchanan. Her people came from England. Mr. F. M.

KENOSHA SESSIONS, M. D., M. A., superintendent of Indiana Girls School, has had a broad and interesting experience in two callings that have a direct and vital relationship to her present responsibilities. She has been a teacher and also a practicing physician and, moreover, is a woman who devoted herself early in life to the field of social service. Consequently the work she has done she has regarded as an end in itself, every successive chapter of her experience having been a measure of preparation for larger duties and responsibilities.

In this connection something should be said of the Indiana Girls School by way of historical and descriptive introduction. In 1869 the Legislature provided for a state correctional school. Such a school was maintained in Indianapolis from 1873 to 1907. In the latter year the girls were moved to the new school, eight miles west of Indianapolis, on the Crawfordsville Road, where the physical plant comprises 187 acres, on which is a campus of twenty-five acres, with ten cottages, hospital, school, about twenty buildings altogether. The housing system is the cottage unit plan, all the facilities of domestic service and dormitory being contained in each cottage.

The purpose of the Indiana Girls School is correctional work with girls. Girls from ten to eighteen years of age are received after having been committed by the Juvenile Court of the state. The essential service the school renders during the period of training is to make the girls physically, economically and morally fit to join in the life and work of the world outside the institution. Before a girl is paroled she must satisfactorily complete a course of training in all branches of household economics. The girls have the advantages of schooling through the eighth grade and some high school work, including domestic science, music, systematic Bible work and manual training. Before a girl can qualify for parole she must have a record of good conduct and efficiency. Since the establishment of the school in 1873 more than 4,000 girls have been received.

Doctor Sessions was born March 23, 1862, at Anna, Illinois, daughter of Richard W. and Mary A. (House) Sessions. Her great-grandfather, Thomas Sessions, came from England, first locating in one of the New England states and later going to South Carolina, where he owned and operated a rice plantation. Doctor Session's grandparents were Richard and Unity (Bankston) Sessions. Richard Sessions was born in South Carolina and subsequently moved his family to Illinois. Richard W. Sessions was born at Salisbury, North Carolina, and was a boy when the family moved to Anna, Illinois. He was in the grain business there for many years.

Dr. Kenosha Sessions attended public school at Anna, graduated in 1880 from the Forest Park College in Saint Louis, and her work as a teacher began in the schools at Anna and later she was an instructor in the Saint Louis college where she graduated. After eight years of teaching she decided to broaden her opportunities by taking up the study of medicine. At that time the decision was one that required considerable courage to make. In 1893 she was graduated with a good record from the medical department of Northwestern University of Chicago, following which she spent a year as interne in the Woman's Hospital of Chicago and during one season had charge of the Daily News Sanitarium for Babies in Jackson Park. Leaving Chicago, she went to Hueneme, California, where for a short time she took charge of the practice of her brother, Dr. Oscar Sessions, while he was on a vacation. For a time she was engaged in private practice at Evansville, and for thirteen years had charge of the department for women at the Evansville State Hospital. In September, 1911, she was appointed superintendent of the Indiana Girls School and to the management of that institution she has given twenty years, constituting perhaps the most fruitful period of her life. This work has made her one of the prominent figures among American humanitarian and social workers. She is a member of the American Medical Association, the Indianapolis Medical Society, the American Society of Mental Hygiene, the American Prison Congress, the American Association of University Women and American Orthopsychiatric Association, also a member, by appointment of United States Secretary of State Wilbur, of the National Committee of Illiteracy. Doctor Sessions is a member of the Fortnightly Literary Club of Indianapolis, the First Presbyterian Church and is a member of the Commission on Law Observance and Law Enforcement.
