Mrs. Lorraine Smith Haskell, the wife of Mr. A. Porter Haskell, died suddenly at their home in the county at 8:30 o’clock Friday night from heart failure. She had been ill for several weeks, but was thought to be improving. Friday night she suddenly became worse and failed so rapidly that the end came before a physician could arrive.
She is survived by her husband and one child. Her remains were brought to the home of Mr. Haskell’s father, Judge A. C. Haskell last night, and the funeral services will be held at Trinity Church at 6 o’clock this afternoon, being conducted by the Rev. Samuel Moran. Interment will be in Elmwood cemetery. The pallbearers will be: Messrs. R. B. Herbert, John Fisher, Walter Thomas, G. E. Guignard, Christie Benet, G. A. Guignard, Dr. Julius H. Taylor and Sr. Lindsay Peters.
Mrs. Haskell came to Columbia in the fall of 18925 as Miss Lorraine Smith and accepted the position of head nurse at the Columbia hospital. She was married to Mr. Haskell on August 5, 1903, a little less than three years ago. She was a Canadian by birth, her father being a clergyman of the Church of England and residing at present in Montreal. Her sister, Miss Evelyn Smith, was with her at the time of her death and another sister, Miss Ethel Smith, is head nurse in the Protestant hospital in Norfolk.
