LIFE'S SPARK OUT FOR IRA DEHAVEN -- BRIGHT'S DISEASE CAUSES HIS DEATH AFTER 
LINGERING ILLNESS OF MANY WEEKS -- LONG A PENITENTARY GUARD --
     Ira DeHAVEN died last Wednesday afternoon at 5:00 p.m., July 20, 1904, at 
the home of his mother, Mrs. Mary DeHAVEN, in this city (Cloverport).  He had 
been in poor health since the first of May.  About June 8, his condition became 
critical, and there was little hope entertained.  Death was due to Brights 
Disease.  Mr. DeHAVEN'S home was at Pattyville/Patesville (very hard to read off 
the microfilm here), but became ill here while on a visit.
     Mr. DeHAVEN was born in this city (Cloverport) in 1868, and in the early 
part of his life, he engaged extensively in the Tan Bark and Timber business with 
his father, the late Judge John R. DeHAVEN.  He then was employed by a number of 
mercantile firms of this city.  In 1894, he secured a position of guard at the 
State Penitentary at Frankfort, Ky (Franklin County).  He afterwards was given a 
like position at the Eddyville Penitentary, (Lyon County, Ky) which he had at the 
time of his death.  He always took an active interest in politics, and had many 
friends among the political leaders of the county and state.
     In February 1902, the deceased was married to Miss Talmage D. STONE of 
Frankfort, Ky.  To this union was born one son Singularly, the child was born on 
Wednesday.  Mr. DeHAVEN was born on Wednesday, and died on Wednesday.  Mrs. 
DeHAVEN will remain in the city several weeks, and then return to her old home in 
Frankfort.
     Besides his wife, mother, and child, Mr. DeHAVEN is survived by four 
brothers:
Fred DeHAVEN of Louisville, Ky (Jefferson County)
Carl DeHAVEN of Terre Haute, Indiana (Vigo County)
Orfila DeHAVEN of this city
Wickliffe DeHAVEN of this city
one sister:
Miss Mamie DeHAVEN  (no residence given)
     The funeral was held from the family residence Thursday afternoon, July 21, 
1904, at 4:00 p.m., with the Reverends P. L. KING and S. O. CHRISTIAN, 
officiating, and the interment was in the city cemetery.
