Obituary of Mrs. Louisa M. Bartlett

By E. Y. Fisk; L. B. Fisk

DIED, of slow paralysis, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. E. Y. Fisk, in Stafford, Conn., Feb. 9, 1875, Mrs. Louisa M. Bartlett, aged 64 years and 8 months. Our mother was a faithful Bible student, so that in her younger days, she could repeat from memory nearly all of the New Testament. She was brought up a Congregationalist, and joined that church Sept. 5, 1830. She embraced the Adventist views about 1850. Her sister, Miss Hannah Moore, sent her the ADVENT REVIEW and other publications. From her diary of Dec. 28, 1867, we quote: “I now keep the Sabbath of the Lord my God, the seventh day.” Since that time she has taken the Sabbath publications and circulated them. She was buried in baptism by Bro. P. C. Rodman, June 30, 1872. From her youth she lived a consistent Christian life. During her sickness she manifested a cheerful resignation, and fell asleep in hope of a better resurrection. E. Y. & L. B. Fisk.
