• Notes

  Deer Isle newspaper February 12, 1926 The sad intelligence has been received of the death of Frank S. Haskell on the 29tth of January, at his home in Newton, Mass. He was born in Deer Isle, 58 years ago, and spent his boyhood days here. He was a son of the late George C. and Sarah E. Haskell. After his school days were over, he chose for his vocation a mariner’s life and followed the sea for a few years, then he went to Boston and found employment with the N.E. Tel. & Tel. Co., which position he held at the time of his death. Genial and congenial in his vocal activities and active and precise in his business dealing he was everywhere liked and held in the highest regard by all who knew him. He leaves to mourn his loss a widow, who was Miss Sarah A. Graves of Canada, and an only son, George, also a sister, Mrs. David S. Briggs of Dorchester, and a brother, Ernest C. of Everett, Mass.
