At the home of her son, A. M. Burdick, in Dodge Centre, Minn., June 17, 1902, of old age and acute pneumonia, Mrs. Clarissa A. Burdick, widow of Dea. N. M. Burdick, deceased, in the 93d year of her age.
She was born in Shiloh, N. J., March 19, 1810. Some years later her parents moved to Leonardsville, N. Y., where she was married to Nathan M. Burdick, Feb. 22, 1834. To them were born six children, four of whom are yet living. In early life this sister professed faith in Christ, and joined the First Brookfield church. In 1859, with her family, she moved to Minnesota and became one of the constituent members of the Dodge Centre Seventh-day Baptist church, her husband being the first deacon.
This sister was a kind and thoughtful wife and mother, broad in her nature and mental grasp, and devotional in character. Her life was full of good deeds till old age impaired her in body and mind. Death truly was a happy release. She leaves one daughter, Mrs. Mary Langworthy, and three sons, Clark E. and Albertie M. of Dodge Centre, and Jason E. of Denver, Colorado. Services were held at the home June 19, conducted by the pastor, assisted by Rev. H. D. Clarke, her former pastor. Text, Job. 5: 26. G. W. L.
