Source: Crawfordsville Daily Journal, 10 Dec 1929 p 3

Harriette B. BOLSER, daughter of Ellis and Neoma Fletcher Little was born in Green County, Ohio April 13, 1850. When she was 3 years of age the family moved to Montgomery County, Indiana and located on a farm on the Perrysville Road 5 miles west of Yountsville. Here she grew to womanhood and Nov 18, 1870 she was united in marriage to Frank Bolser (Balser?) and began housekeeping in Alamo. After a short residence here she and her husband moved to a farm adjoining that of her father, where she and her husband continued to live until his death Oct 24, 1904. A shor6t time after the death of her husband she moved to Waynetown and continued to reside there until her passing. She had been in declining health for the past year. Four weeks ago she was taken to Culver Hospital where her true condition was learned and while every effort was put forth to prolong her life, yet it was without avail, for in the evening hours of Tuesday Dec 3, she passed peacefully away at age 79 year 7 months 20 days, leaving to mourn on sister, Mrs. Laura Ellis of Waynetown; one brother, Guy Little of near Waynetown, other relatives and friends limited only by those of her acquaintance. She was a good woman, kind to all with whom she came in contact and anxious to live at all times so that she would not be a trouble or burdern upon those wom she loved and those who loved her. Anticipating that the end was near, she had made many arragnements for that event and stated that she was willing to go if her time had been lived and so she passed on to the unknown, to meet with those who have gone on before. she will be much missed by her neighbors, friends and relatives, but it will be a sweet memory of a splendid life lived, which has contributed to the welfare of others. She has gone unto her reward and may peace be unto her departed soul. = typed by kbz
