Sacramento Bee Newspaper/Aug.27,1954
News article: Dr. Aden (Cairns:(sic),Cavins Hart,one of the founders of the
Sutter Hospital and prominent in Sacramento medical circles for 45 years, died
this morning in San Francisco,Ca. at the age of 86. Hart, who retired from
active practice of medicine in Sacramento 12 years ago, spent his last years in
San Francisco to be near his stepson, Lloyd F.Chase of that city. Immediate
family survivors include his wife, Mrs. Alice Hart and a grandson,Lloyd F. Chase
Jr. of Palo Alto. Hart was graduated from the Stanford University School of
Medicine and began his practice in Colusa, Colusa co., Ca. where he was born in
1858. He moved to Sacramento before the turn of the century, and soon became
known as an outstanding surgeon. He was active in the advancement of his
profession and took part in organizing the medical groups which preceded the
establishment of the Sacramento Society for Medical Improvement, an organization
which he headed as president in 1911.His constant striving to improve his
ability, led him to make many trips to medical centers in the east for further
study, and at one time spent six months in Europe visiting clinics and medical
centers. His studies in this country were at such institutions as the Johns
Hopkins Hospital and the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minn. where he developed a
close friendship with the Mayo brothers, operators of that institution. In 1926
he was elected an honorary member of the American College of Surgeons in
recognition of his ability and service. Hart's years in Sacramento were marked
by his contributions to many charities. He was a member of the Union Lodge of
Masons No.58, the Sacramento Commandery No.2 Knights Templar, the Ben Ali 
Temple of the Shrine, and Sacramento Chapter No.3, Royal Arch Masons. He was the
last survivor of his generation having been deceased by his brother, the late
E.C. Hart who served on the Third District Court of Appeal. 
Masonic services will be held Monday at 11 AM in the East Lawn Chapel, and
burial will in the East Lawn Cemetery. Funeral arrangements are being made by,
Clark-Booth and Yardley.
