regularly the last Two weeks
Dcnby also served as representa-
tive from Michigan in the 10Th,
Goth and Glst congresses from 1905
to 1910.
After consultation Dr. \. G.
Jennings stated DENLY had been
found dead in his bed shortly after
5 o'clock this morning. He had died
some time after O'Clock. Mrs.
DENLY had lr. Jennings called i'm
mcdiately. but the former naval
head apparently had died in his
sleep.
Dcnby. who was 50 years old, was
born at Evansville, Ind. He was
secretary Of the navy from 1927 -
1921. His son, Edwin Jr., l6, is pre-.
pairing to enter the Naval Academy

Dcnby resigned after the senate
called for his resignation because of
his alleged failure to block the dis

potent and signed the documents

tary Of Interior Fab without know
ing th,ir real significance.
DENLY never was accused Of any
illcgitmatc part in the Teapot
Dome affair and was regarded by
the senate critics only rs an inno-
cent tool of designing men.
Dcnhy's retirement, few weeks
after the Teapot Dome iuvestiga-
tiou, was all the more dramatic be
cause Of his spectacular rise. When
