It is not necessary to give an obituary of Mr. DeHaven in the columns of the News for the story of his life is known well to every citizen in Breckenridge and the counties surrounding, not because he was eighty-five years of age, but for the reason that his life reached out to others in so many helpful ways. He was a man among men and was as firm as a nail driven in a wall. His principles were high, his ideals were beautiful and he seemed to be all that humanity could expect of a man.
He was born September 23, 1823 in this county. In 1857 he married Miss Sallie Wortham. Only two children, Mrs. W.R. Moorman, of Glendeane, and W.I. DeHaven, of Millwood, survive.
