DONALDSON: Rev. Alvin J. Donaldson died at Pond Creek, Oklahoma, Saturday 
evening, August 16. Several weeks ago while assisting workmen in erecting a 
church he fell and received a hard blow on his right side. An abscess formed 
and it was necessary that he be operated upon. The ordeal was too great and he 
did not survive it. A. J. Donaldson was born in Jefferson county, April 19, 
1858. He moved to Chelsea with his parents when he was a baby. He was converted 
when only a boy and subsequently became a Free Methodist Preacher. He married 
Kitty Olmstead at Chelsea in 1882. He has two brothers in Central America, Ed 
and Harry Donaldson. His sisters, Florence Reed and Mrs. Wolverton, live at 
Holton. He was a brother of George Donaldson of Marion. He was brought to El 
Dorado via Wichita yesterday afternoon. The funeral party left El Dorado at 
noon today and he was taken to Chelsea for burial.
