Colonel William A. Phillips

Dana Malone (October 8, 1857 – August 14, 1917)[3] was an American politician who served as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives from 1893 to 1894 and a member of the Massachusetts Senate from 1895 to 1896, District Attorney for the Northwest District from 1901 to 1905, and Massachusetts Attorney General from 1906 to 1911.[1]

As district attorney, Malone was responsible for the prosecution of Euclid Madden, a motorman who upset the carriage of President Theodore Roosevelt and caused the death of William Craig, the first United States Secret Service agent to die in the line of duty.[4]

Malone died on August 14, 1917, in Greenfield, Massachusetts, after being thrown from a horse and fracturing his skull.[2]
