THE BLOOMFIELD DEMOCRAT, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Friday, November 14, 1890,
Volume XXII, Number 35, Page 3, Column 3: [Transcribed on March 24, 2005 by RLJ from
microfilm of the original newspaper on file in the Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County Public
Library.]
Mrs. William DOBBINS, of Orleans, died very unexpectedly at 2 o’clock last Sunday morning,
after an illness of five days, of congestion of the bowels. The deceased was forty-nine
years old and a large acquaintance, every one of whom were her personal friends. The
funeral was largely attended and everything done to console the heart broken husband that
loving friends could do. Quite a number from Bloomfield attended the funeral.
