Arthur T. Revell, M. D., a young, yet successful and prominent physician and surgeon of Scammon, was born at Columbus, May 7, 1878, a son of Harry and Ellen (Dowd) Revell. His father was born in France, and his mother in Missouri. The father died when Doctor Revell was but two years of age, and he was reared by his maternal grandmother at Columbus, until he was seven years of age, then at Weir, where he graduated in the Weir High School at the age of fourteen. For two years he was a drug clerk at Weir, and then began the study of medicine under Dr. George B. McClellan, his brother-in-law, at Weir. In 1900 Dr. Revell graduated in the Kansas City (Mo.) Medical College, which college has since been consolidated with the University of Kansas, and by virtue of which consolidation Dr. Revell is an alumnus of the university. For eighteen months after his graduation, Dr. Revell practiced his profession at Weir, then located at Scammon, in 1901, where he has since remained, and where he enjoys a constantly increasing practice. He is a member of the Cherokee county, the Kansas state medical societies, and of the American Medical Association. In 1903, Dr. Revell and Miss Mary McNamara, born at McAlister, Okla., were united in marriage, and they have one child, Arthur.
