Obituary:
"A Sad Death
Mrs. Nora Bartlett, of Englewood, died very suddenly late Wednesday afternoon from what has been pronounced by the physicians to have been lung fever. Mrs. Bartlett has for many years been an invalid but she required no especial medical attention or nursing until about 5 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, when her sister concluded that the services of an experienced nurse were necessary and she went in search of such a person. Upon returning to the home after a very brief absence she was startled to find her sister had died. The deceased was aged 44 years and a husband and a young son survive. Mr. Bartlett had recently gone east to locate, expecting to be followed by his family who were ready to leave in a very few days. Funeral arrangements have not yet been completed but in all probability will be held on Sunday, by which time it is expected Mr. Bartlett will have returned to Salem." _Oregon Statesman, March 16, 1900
