- American-Democrat, Anadarko, OK,
September 4, 1919
Mrs. Nora M. Haskell, wife of B. E. Haskell, died at her home in this city last Wednesday morning, after a very short illness. The immediate cause of her death, according to local physicians was blood-poisoning, while Doctors Fishman of Oklahoma City, and Dr. Roberts, of Clinton, Okla., who were called, pronounced it erysipelas.
Mrs. Haskell's death cast a gloom over the city, as she was very active in church and social life, and her death came as a shock to many who were not aware that she was sick. She has been connected with so many organizations and clubs, and had worked for so many different business firms in the city and at the Kiowa Agency, that she was endeared to a host of people.
Mrs. Haskell was born in Stahl, Adair county, Missouri, June 16, 1890, and was aged 29 years, 2 months and 17 days.
She is survived by her husband, little son, Earnest Moore, who was two years old last March, her mother Mrs. Moore, who made her home with her, and her sister, Mrs. Ethel Pierce, of Fort Cobb.
Mrs. Haskell was a member of the Methodist church, was a Sunday School teacher for a number of years; a member of the Royal Neighbors, and belongs to a number of clubs.
Gentle, loving Mrs. Haskell, around few young lives clustered so many loves and friendships, loving friends whose voices will call out in sorrow through the purpling shadows for one more word, for another fond look. But life's storm is o'er, the unknown sea of unknown shores is passed and her eternal moorings made in a sheltered haven beyond storm or gale.
