17742. Truman Roselle Haskell Jr.
Truman Haskell and his friend Truman Brown were noted Adirondack Guides. Trume Haskell made a living from guiding for most of the early days of his life. His family home was in Nobleboro. He was a son of William (Pony) Haskell.
After 1912, he lived in Wilmurt in the Courtney house next to what is known as Haskell's Inn. This house burned in 1916 and all that was left was a deer head, and a desk. The only clothes left were night clothes, It was then that Trume bought the Hubbard House that remains today as Haskell's Hotel.
When Trume was very young he built a camp on West Creek which was one of his greatest pleasures. He guided to that area and also spent much time in camp, He was a great story teller and often told tales of his association with French Louie, Sandy Flanagan, Johnny Leaf and Paul Hoppe. Bill Potter would often stop for a snack on his way to his High Falls Cam
In his later years, Truman Haskell bought a garage in Barneveld and lived in what was known as the Octagon House. This was his business until he retired, although he spent as much time as possible in the woods.

Barneveld, Aug. 18. Nine children are without a mother by the death of Mrs. Trumam Haskell, which occurred at her home at 6 o'clock this morning. Two train nurses and two physicians were present as her spirit passed on.
Only a few days ago Mrs. Haskell became afflicted with pneumonia, after the birth of a daughter. Her vitality was not such as could fight off the disease and despite every known resource it claimed her completely.
Her maiden name was Georgianna Worden, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Worden. She was born at Russia, N.Y., June 1, 1885. In 1901 she was married to Truman Haskell and they came here about three years ago. Mrs. Haskell was a member of the Rebekah Lodge.
Inexpressable is the grief which descends on the entire village by this loss, and the sympathy that is felt for the family. Mrs. Haskell was a woman who delighted her many friends. She had the mother spirit with everyone and whenever possible she was ready to give help. In her home she was radiant and love made no labor or sacrifice too great.
The children are: Worden, Dorcas, Glendora, Frances, Olive, Glenn and Catherine, twins, and infant daughter. There also survive, besides the parent and husband, three sisters, Mrs. Olive Racicot of Fort Layden, Mrs. Bertha Lindsey, Rochester, and Miss Marjorie Worden, Stittville, and one brother, Charles Worden of Hinckley.
