Doctor Endsley first entered service in Kansas City in 1906 as layman inspector and attended school at night being awarded his veterinary diploma in 1910. Early work included a fight against foot and mouth disease in New York in 1908. Endsley was due to retire a year ago, but at the request of the department has stayed on and his last day at the stock yards will be August 3.
