Petaluma Loses Prominent Man
William B. Haskell, prominent citizen of Petaluma and who was well and favorably known to the legal fraternity of Sonoma and Marin counties, died at his home Thursday after a long illness. Mr. Haskell was 72 years of age. He was born in New York and came to California via the Isthmus in 1852. Since that time he had made his home in Sonoma county. He was a member of the Odd Fellows and the Masonic lodge.
Mr. Haskell was twice married, his first wife having passed away some years ago. He leaves a surviving widow, who is the mother of Judge Thomas C. Denny. Mr. Haskell’s only child, Mrs. Euna Merwin, of Berkeley, was with her father at the end.
