J. Clarke, Publisher FRANK L. DAGGETT. Frank L. Daggett, who is engaged in the undertaking and embalming business in Ottumwa, his native city, was born on the 4th of June, 1874. His youthful days were spent in the home of his parents, and at the usual age he entered the public schools, in which he passed through consecutive grades until graduated from the high school. He also attended a business college in this city and then, in preparation for his chosen line of work, he entered the Hohenschuh Embalming School at Iowa City, from which he was graduated in 1901. He then entered the undertaking business, which he still conducts under the name of Daggett & Sons, Frank L. Daggett being manager. The firm is liberally patronized and has a well appointed undertaking establishment, carrying an excellent line of everything needed in their business. In 1898 Mr. Daggett was married to Miss Maud L.

To Mr. and Mrs. Daggett have been born four children, but Nellie, the firstborn, is deceased, twins have also passed away and Jeannette is the only one now living. Mr. Daggett is prominently and popularly known in fraternal circles. He belongs to the Masonic lodge and has attained high rank in the order. He also has membership with the Odd Fellows and the Modern Woodmen. He is likewise connected with the Yeomen lodge, and both he and his wife are members of the Eastern Star and the Royal Neighbors. Both are members of the Methodist Episcopal church, and he is president of the Young Peoples Association of the church. His wife, a graduate in music, is an excellent pianist. Theirs is an attractive and hospitable home, and its good cheer is greatly enjoyed by their many friends. They possess in large measure those attractive social qualities which win warm regard in every land and clime.
