Dr. W. ". Delzell
Rogersville. Physician, Who -Went Through Springfield 83 Years Ago on Horse- back, May .Hold' Record, But Other Names Sought
By LUCILE MORRIS
Eighty- three years ago Dr. W. D. Detail of Rogersville rode through Springfield on horseback. He was one Fear of age at the time, and was car- ried In his mother's arms, but it seems doubtful If there are many-if any- other Hving persons who were to this city that many years ago.
Sponsors of the celebration in hon- or of the 100th anniversary of the founding of Springfield to be beld the week beginning June 16. this morn- ing expressed much interest in the -Information that Doctor Delzell was a visitor in this city 83 years ago. They hope that if there are other pioneers who were In Springfield that long ago | they will notify the Centennial Pub-
Ucity committee through The News and Leader. One day of the centen- nial celebration is to be "Pioneer day" with special recognition to those who waw much of Springfield's history In the makin.g.
Here for Jackson Dinner
Hale and hearty, with a keen mem- ory and a vivid interest in modem affairs, Doctor Detzelt numbers count- leas persons through the Ozarks among his friends. He was in Springfield Monday to attend the Jackson dinne:
cratto rally-feasts. and enjoys them hugely.
Doctor Delzell, who will be 85 years of age in July, is thought to have be- gun practicing in the Ozarks earlier than any other living physician =!! h the exception of Dr. I. N. Rogers af California and formerly also of Rog- eraville. He has done little practice in recent years, although even jet "once in awhile goes out with the younger fellows" in consultation on a
in the less moderu dara of the Quarts' when roads were poor and means cf communication few. Doctor Delmell dismisses ! that phase of his expert- coces as "no more than every other doctor of" the time had to to through."
When County Lines Changed
Doctor Delsell was born in Oreene county and with the change of boundaries "Webster county came to him when he was 16." The homestead was one mile from his present bona, which is about two miles from Rogers-
The 'incident which brought him through Springfield 83 years ago 00- curred when, in the fall of 45, bis mother, riding ou an old-fashioned Ade saddle made the trip horseback to Cave Springs to a camp meeting.
The next time he saw Springfield. and of course the first time so far de his memory of it is concerned. was when he was 10 years of age.
"Father said to me. 'Bully. we must go to Springfield after a plow.'" be recalls as the prelude to the exciting trip.
