Daniel Dent died Oct. 14, 1994, in Middletown, Conn., close to his home in Essex.

Son of the late Elbert and Jane Miller Dent, Daniel was born in Washington, D.C., and grew up in Philadelphia. After graduating, Daniel earned his law degree from Temple in 1930. He became a member of the New York and Pennsylvania Bar Assns., and was v.p. of manufacturing at the Borden Co. in New York.

Daniel was active in politics, serving as chairman of the Darien Republican Committee from 1952-54, and again from 1960-68. He was also chairman of the Darien Fund in 1954 and 1956 and served as a member of the Executive Board of the Natl. Milk Council in 1956.

Daniel is survived by a son, Daniel S.; two daughters, Dorothy Dent Withers and Deborah Dent; six grandchildren; two step-grandchildren; and one great-grandchild. The class extends its sympathies to them and mourns the loss of one of its own.
