Her | family, a prominent one from Colonial | times in South Carolina, had removed to Northeast- Kentucky. The young doctor and his bride went at once to New York City, where he had been ad- mitted as intern in Bellevue Hospital. Dr. Hatfield Completes Studies in New York. They remained in New York City for 10 years. During this interval the doctor made his post-graduate studies at various eminent medical colleges and Graduate College of New York City, at Cornell and at the New York State Post-graduate School and Hospital. Dr. Hatfleld accepted a place on the teach- ing staff of Bethany College in Ken-| tucky and began general medical prac- | tice in 1909. It was in the mining hospitals of ‘West Virginia, and especially during the continuous strikes recorded in those areas that Senator Hatfield and his wife became known to the public. Many excellent clinics and special hos- pitals are the direct result of his ap- 1s to the Legislature, and of Mrs. Hatfleld's unceasing efforts to alleviate | poverty and privation, so far as med- ical skill and nursing were involved. In' the governor's mansion, over which Mrs. Hatfield presided for four years, | and, while every social requisite was | strictly supplied and the mamonal; hospitality was in evidence, there was | & trend toward the co-operation of the ; more prosperous with the directors of the Commonwealth’s welfare agencies, which became more evident. No gov- ernor’s wife in all the family of States conducted more diligent, efficient and loyal units for supplying the Red Cross and other governmental agencies during the World War.

Senator Hatfleld, as soon as he laid aside the reins of government, enlisted in the Medical Service and, with the title of major, he was placed in charge of the Marine Corps Hospital in Detroit, where he remained until reconstruction days.
