The Garden Island, Lihue, Kauai, Tues., 10-23-1917
LYMAN, FRANCIS ANDERSON
IN MEMORIAM:  DR. FRANCIS A. LYMAN.  With the death of Dr. Francis A. Lyman, which 
occurred Sunday afternoon at his home in Waimea, Kauai loses a physician of much 
ability and a man of many admirable qualities. Of a quiet, unassuming disposition, 
he was appreciated and loved most by those who knew him best. Combined with the 
sterling qualities of integrity, he cherished a tender heart and a kindly sympathy 
for the unfortunate and the suffering which he saw every day, and whose needs he 
was ever ready to alleviate and to whom he gave his life. Dr. Lyman was born in 
Honolulu, May 7, 1862. He spent his boyhood in Hilo mostly; received his early 
education at Penahou; went from there to Western Reserve University from which he 
graduated in 1885. His professional education he received at Rush Medical School, 
from which he graduated with the very highest honors which entitled him to a 
choice of two positions a hospital intern. He selected that at the Presbyterian 
Hospital of Chicago where he remained two years. He was then appointed 
superintendent of the Wisconsin State Insane Asylum, which position he filled for 
nine years. While there he married Mamie A. Aldrich of Mt. Carmel, Ill., daughter 
of Alfred A. Aldrich, a prominent lumber merchant doing a big business all the way 
from Toledo to Quebec. In 1895 he located in Madison, Wis., where for years he 
conducted an extensive general practice besides being city and county physician. 
In the interest of his wife's health, he moved to the Islands and located in 
Waimea in 1913, succeeding Dr. Sandow in the professional care of that extensive 
and important district which includes the Kekaha Sugar Company, the Waimea Sugar 
Company, and the Gay and Robinson interests. He leaves a widow and two sons to 
mourn his loss, as well as many relations and friends, especially in Hilo, his old 
home. The funeral service was held at the home Tuesday morning, Rev. J. M. Lydgate 
officiating; the remains will be interred in Honolulu.
