Source: Waveland Independent, Waveland, Montgomery County, Indiana March 7, 1913

Mrs. Mary (Smith) Hallett was born at Rockville Oct 11, 1845 and departed this life February 28, 1913, aged 65 years, 5 months and 20 days. She spent her childhood with her father and five small brothers and one sister. Her mother died when she was a child, thus leaving Mary to care for this large family, who except one brother Joseph, have preceeded her to the home, where there is no parting. At the age of 16 she united with the Christian church at Rockville and lived in the faith that the Lord's will be done. On her death bed she sang, "Jesus Lover of My Soul." When she was 20- years old, she was united in marriage with Jackson Hallett. To this union were born six children, Harvey, George, Ellie, Willie, Edna and Susie. Ellie died in infancy, and Willie departed this life in early manhood at the age of 24 in 1901 and the year following, George was called to the great beyond, aged 34. Those left to mourn the loss of a dear wife and mother are the husband, Harvey P. Hallett, Mrs. Charles Smith and Mrs. George Welch of Wallace; twelve grandchildren and three great grandchildren. Besides these she leaves many other relatives and friends to mourn the loss, as she was a very helping and dear wife and a loving mother and always ready to do any act of kindness that she could do for her friends and her neighbors. Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. J.M. Caldwell of Crawfordsville at 2:30 on Sunday afternoon in the Alamo Christian church. Interment at Alamo Cemetery. - kbz
