E. W. Dyar, M.D. The medical profession in Wells County, as elsewhere, is found to include the ablest and most scholarly men in every community, and in Dr. E. W. Dyar, the pleasant town of Ossian, Indiana, has a physician and surgeon of this order and a man of both personal and professional standing entitling him to high regard, he being also president of the Farmers State Bank of Ossian.

Doctor Dyar was born in Robinson, Crawford County, Illinois, and is the son of William and Elizabeth (Werrich) Dyar, both of whom are deceased, the father passing away in 1881 and the mother in April, 1888.

Fortified with a sound public school education, E. W. Dyar then turned his attention to the study of medicine, subsequently entering the Indiana Medical College, Indianapolis, from which he was graduated with his medical degree in 1904. In the same year he came to Ossian and has been in active practice here ever since, through medical knowledge and surgical skill gaining universal confidence. He devotes his entire time to the labors of his profession and keeps thoroughly abreast with the wonderful advances it is making in modern times.

Dr. Dyar was married September 8, 1901, to Miss Ola M. Hardin, who is a daughter of Thomas and Lyda Hardin, well known residents of Hardinville, Illinois. Dr. and Mrs. Dyar have one son, Edwin W., a school boy of eleven years.

Dr. Dyar gives to politics only the attention that good citizenship demands, voting always with the republican party from principle, but is liberal minded on many public questions. He is a member of Wells County, Indiana State and American Medical societies. In Masonry, he is a member of Ossian Lodge No. 297, F. & A.M., having received the Scottish rite in Fort Wayne Consistory, and is also a member of Ossian Lodge No. 343, K. of P. Dr. and Mrs. Dyar are members of the Presbyterian Church.
