Bolman, Elizabeth (1841 - 1926)

This community was shocked Friday morning when a message reached here telling of the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Bolman, wife of the late Frank G. Bolman, which occurred at the Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire at 7:30 o'clock in the morning.

Mrs. Bolman was taken sick Wednesday morning, and medical aid was summoned at once, and when it was learned that she had contracted pneumonia when was removed to the hospital at Eau Claire for treatment. Her condition at that time was not thought serious, and her son and daughter returned home that evening expecting to return the next day to visit her. During the night her condition grew steadily worse, and early in the morning her son and daughter were summoned to come at once, but before their arrival she had passed beyond.

Mrs. Bolman was sixty-five years of age, and was one of the pioneer residents of the city, was a leader in church work and in years past was one of the influential women of the city, and her loss will be felt by many.

She leaves to mourn one son, Irving of this city, Robert and Sadie, bother and sister of Eau Claire, and a host of friends. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon from the residence, Rev. W. P. Powell of the Congregational Church, officiating, and interment took place in the family lot at Riverside cemetery.

Those from away who came to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Howee of Chippewa, Miss Sadie Sloan, Robert Sloan, Misses Louisa and Kate Fitzgerald of Eau Claire.
