Stephen Hoy advises: American Rose Society Magazine, Vol. 3, 1939-1940. The archived manuscript has many duplicated pages, making it difficult to ascertain the exact page number, but the following text appears on what I believe its p. 46 in an article entitled, "Dr. Hiram DePuy Passes On." (date of passing was 3/9/1939)
". . . Twelve years ago he gave up the practice of his profession [dentistry] to become Horticulturist for the Tacoma Park Board, doing notable work. He discovered and propagated the Golden Arborvitae, a native of the mountains of Washington. He originated several roses, Frances Ashton being the best known."
