Dr. Thomas P. Daly was born March 27, 1871, near Cresco, in Winnesheik{sp} county, Iowa. The earlier years of his life were spent on his father’s farm in Winnesheik{sp} county. Later he attended school in Decorah, Iowa, and in Valparaiso, Indiana. After spending a few years teaching school and in the employ of the Collier Publishing Co., he entered the medical school of the Northwestern University in Chicago. He graduated in the summer of 1903 with the degree of doctor of medicine, and practiced his profession in Chicago for a period of five years. At this time failing health compelled him to retire from a large and lucrative practice and seek the more congenial climate of the southwest. After a short rest in Arizona and California he regained his health and resumed the practice of his profession in Congress, Arizona. For a time he was a prison physician until about two years ago. At that time, while attending to his official duties, he received an injury from which he never recovered. He died from peritonitis in Cresco, on the 4th day of Sept. 1914.

In October, 1904, Dr. Daly was united in marriage with Adeline C. Kelly, of Chicago. Of this union was born one son, James Thomas.

He leaves to mourn his wife and son, a mother, Hannah Daly; two sisters, Mary C. Daly and Mrs. John Barrett, and two brothers, John J. and Wm., of Seattle, Wash.
