THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1931 [RETIRED NAVY ASTRONOMER recommend plans for the modernization and centralization of the power plants at navy yards. DR. OZORA S. DAVIS UNAFRAID IN DEATH {Theological ‘Seminary Head Dies on Train En Route to Chicago. By the Associdted Press. CHICAGO, March 16.—“Afrald of death? No. For I know that I shall have a spiritual body to do with as I please. . And I won't have to worry about the aches and pains of this poor physical body.” Dr. Ozora S. Davis, gentle, white- haired theologian, passed from life last night in the spirit of those words he spoke two years ago. Calm watcher for the end he knew was at hand, vic- tim of an incurable malady, he died on & train near Topeka, Kans. It was in 1929 that doctors passed a final sentence—a year, perhaps & few months more. There was no fear in the heart of the veteran pastor, who rose from a penniless, shoeless newsboy to become moderator of the Congrega- tlonal Chacyn president of the Chicago Theologica: Seminary. He waited in peace for the end. Wanted to Live. “Of course,” he said, “I don’t want to go. This is a mighty interesting world, and I'm having a mighty good time in it.” ; It was an “interesting world” for him %o the end. When death approached, he was bound from California to Chi- cago. And it was a world, “which has been very good to me.” The young people? He thought them “the finest I have known—more hon- est, fearless, more trustworthy.” “Yes, this world has been very good to me. There was a time, I once told my children, when I didn’t have shoes. Not many years ago I sat next to a President at a banquet. America is the only land where I could do that.” He was of Vermont stock; his parents were poor. So he sold papers at White River Junction, Vt. There he learned to read the click of a telegraph key and worked his way through Dartmouth —“every cent” He was a brilliant scholar, and fellowships came his way for study at foreign universities. ‘Wrote on Vietor Lawson. Until 1909 he was a pastor—Spring- fleld, Vt.; Newtonville, Mass., and New PBritain, Conn. Then he came to the seminary. His span as president en- compassed a growth in this fountain- head of Congregational culture from 190 students and financial harassments to 500 students and property worth $5,- 900,000, Not many years ago, he retired as president, being president emeritus. His work was not ended. The author of 13 books on religion, he sought to amplify his talents with a biography of Victor Lawson. It remains unfinished. He was 64 when the end came—that end which he described as “merely step- ping through a door.” A bill introduced in the Missouri Legislature would make chicken stealing by day as serious an offense as by night.
