Haskell - Died of paralysis at his home, No 215 North Third Street, at 7:45 o'clock p.m., Sunday, April 20, 1902, Wallace W. Haskell, aged 60 years, 3 months, and 5 days. Funeral from the late residence at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 23, with interment in Forest Cemetery.

The deceased was suddenly stricken with paralysis at the Hotel Downing Friday forenoon at 11:30 o'clock, just as he had completed an argument before Judge Dewey at chambers. He was alone in the room with Attorney Ben McCoy, who noted that the gentleman was suffering from some ailment and hastily summoned medical assistance. Mr. Haskell was rendered helpless and had to be taken to his home. He suffered from a second stroke Saturday evening and from that time slowly sank until the end came and he passed quietly away at 8:15 Sunday evening.

Wallace W. Haskell was a native of Eugene, Vermillion Co, IN, being born January 15, 1842, of Royal and Clarissa Haskell. The family came to Oskaloosa, IA in 1851, and he had resided there until his death. He completed his education in the institutions of that city, and determined to study law as a means of livelihood. He was admitted to the bar at the October term of the Mahaska district court in 1865, when under 23 years of age.
