MEMORIAL RITES
FOR DON HARTMAN
A party of showfoks, 67 in num
ber, comoosed of the personnel of
Vie R and S Amusements, the John
H. Marks Shows, grand stand per
formers, and Legionaires. stood at
attention for a half hour in a drizz
ling rain at 11:30 yesterday morn
ing in Oakdale cemetery, to pay
tribute to the memory of Don Hart
man, aerilist, who died at his al
loted work-in October 1937 at the
old Costal Fair on the same site
as the Legion stadium now stands.
In the little sad faced group,
were his former employers,' John
H. Marks and James M. Raftery. j
and troupers who knew and loved i
him before he met his untimely:
death by a fall from the top of j
a 110-foot steel rigging while per- j
forming.
As the group stood silently at
the graveside listening with bowed
heads and saddened hearts to the
eulogy by the Rev. J. L. Davis,
chaplain of Wilmington Post No.
10 of the Legion, some remember
ed the dead artist as a lad of 20
years, and known as one of the
best performers in the outdoor
amusement world.
Dr. Davis -paid a high tribute to 1
the memory of Hartman and to
the showfolks. The inscription on
the monument reads: ‘He died
■while entertaining the public”. I
That is the creed of the show troup-1
er, said the chaplain.
After a prayer the grave was i
covered with a blanket of floral
tributes from the Marks Shows, R
and S Amusements, and a beauti-!
lul wreath from the Legion post, ’
represented at the services by j
Commander Norwood S. Westbrook
and Thomas B. Hughes.
