Abstract
This project contains an interview with Marion Woltman, the late
Mr. Donnelly's wife. Ms. Woltman, born in 1877, discusses her marriage to the
former congressman, author, and vice presidential candidate for the People's
Party. She talks about her early childhood, in particular, her emigration to
the United States from Norway. Ms. Woltman also speaks about her job as
secretary for Mr. Donnelly at the
Representative before they were married. Ms. Woltman
reflects on her late husband's reading and eating habits and discusses the
circumstances surrounding his death in 1901.
