MARSHALL WAS BEST LIKED OF VICE PRESIDENTS Hoosier and Wife Separated Only One Night in Thirty Years. By C. A. Randau Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June I.—Tonight will be the second time since Oto. 2, 1894, that former Vice President Marshall and his wife have been parted. Only once in their nearly thirty years of married life did the Marshalls spend the night under 1 different roofs. A New Jersey snowstorm, during the early part of the World War broke the perfect record. The Vice President had gone to New York to make a speech, and expecting to be back early in the night, had not taken Mrs. Marshall. The train was delayed twenty-four hours. The Marshalls had been married nearly a dozen years before they even realized they had been together withput interruption. Since then they made a poitn of staying together. The great decision on this point had to be made when Marshall entered public life. Was Mrs. Marshall to remain at home, or was the home to be made secondary and the campaign trips and being together the primary thing? Mrs. Marshall voted for continuing their close union and went with her husband even during the strenuous trips when he stumped the country in 1912 and 1916. Wife Much. Younger * The Marshalls were perfect companions. Before the future Vice President met Louise A. Kimsey, when she was deputy clerk' in a northern Indiana court, in which her father was clerk, he had lived with his mother. It was nto until his mother had died and he had passed 40 that he married Miss Kimsey, nearly twenty yearc his junior. He had always taken his mother on trips and continued the practice with bide-a practice that continued until today’s sad end. Washington has seldom seen the passing of a man whose death was accompanied with such universal regret. > No Vice President has ever been more popular than Marshall. He was loved by his inferiors at the capitol and at the hotel where he lived. He was a hero to thre employes of the New Willard, where he lived tor the last six years of his sice presidential term. The Senators over whom he presided admired and respected him and without exception were his friends. Probably in all the history of American politics no man has had greater temptations pressed upon him -than Marshall. When President Wilson l-'ft the United States to atatend tlje peace conference, constitutional lawyers among Wilson’s bitter enemies urged Marshall to declare the office of President vacant and to assume the power. This was based on the theory that to 'eave the territorial limits of the United States was forbidden ' the President. Again, when Wilson lay at the point of death in the White House in 1919, Marshall was urged to take over the position on the ground that the President was unable to perform his duties, and that the Constitution provided the Vive President should step into his place under such circumstances. Marshall steadfastly refused to consider the prepositions, though it meant turning down the presidency. Man of Little Wealth A man with little desire for wealth, Marshall lived very closely up to hi sincome, particularly during the time he was Governor and Vice President. While Vive President he augmented his incoming his Income by making frequent chauiauqua speeches, which added some six or seven thousand to his income and brought the total to nearly $25,000 a year, including his investment income. He spent it all. He had to, to keep up with his job. One thing his friends all remember about Marshall is -that his success never turned his head. He was still the same Tom Marshall who hung out his shingle in Columbia City, Ind., who knew how to take care of America’s offleila entertainment of a future king of England. It was during these foreign mission visits that the Senate’s eyes were opened to the real eloquence of the presiding officer. Ordinarily the Vice President is a man to be seen and not heard. Marshall stuck to this rule, and gave the Senate no chance to know of his ability as an orator until he had presided over for five years. The Senate was highly pleased, and many members rushed to him to congraulate him when he had made his speeches of welcome to foreign dignitaries. The public at large also liked Marshall’s speeches. After he left the Vice Presidency, he was still a popular Chautauqua lecturer, and found that his crowds in 1924 were still as large ( and enthusiastic as they had been years before, when he was still the second ranking official in the nation. It pleased him to know that

it wasn’t merely his title that drew the people. Situation Unusual Marshall’s passing in Washington has brought about the strange situation where both the candidates of the Democrats In 1912 and 1916, have died in a retirement in the capital only sixteen months apart. Wilson was one of the few exPresidents who died here, and Marshall, one of the few Vice Presidents. There is no record of a contemporary President and Vice President dy ng in the Capital before. Brief funeral services will be held at the new Willard Hotel tomorrow atfernoon, and shortly thereafter the body of former Vice President Mar-

shall will be taken to Indianapolis where services will be conducted by the Masons, and the body then taken to Marion for burial. Ten minutes before Marshall died, this morning, he remarked to Mrs. Marshall fend the nurse that he felt better than he had for some days. The fact that he was reading the Bible was of no particular significance, for he was a constant Bible student and spent a great portion of his leisure time reading In the Bible. Marshall was practically without close relatives on his side of the family, B. B. Shively, of Marlon, and his brothers, third cousins, being the closest. Marshall was an only child, and had no children of his own.
