I do not know the exact date of my Great Grandfather Desire Alexander Molle's death as
a result of an Industrial accident when a tank of molten glass collapsed at the Hartford
City window Glass factory. The accident was reported in the Hartford City newspaper on May
25, 1896. an article appeared in the June 6, 1896 Hartford City newspaper reporting the
little Molle boys, one of which was my Grandfather age 9, were to be taken by Rev. Chas
Dhe to the St. Joseph's orphan asylum in Lafayette under Father Guendling after their
Father was fatally burned at the glass factory fire. If anyone happens to be researching
at the Hartford City Courthouse, would they mind doing a look-up?
Thank You, Ellen
