“Hannah F. Sargent, widow of the late Aaron Sargent, died at her home in Glover on Friday, Oct. 13, after a lingering illness of many months. She had nearly reached the scripture limit of age, three score years and ten. These years had been with busy cares and labors for her beloved family. Of a quiet, retiring [disposition], her home was her delight, no sacrifice was too great for the welfare of her household. For many years the care of her invalid husband was her only thought, and in this she was greatly [assisted] by the thoughtful kindness of their children. Three sons, five daughters, [including] one adopted, who was dear as [her own], and seven grandchildren remain. They have been untiring in their helpful labors for the dear mother [who watched] over them in their helpless years. In patient Christian resignation and [word missing] she bore the trials and pains of [her] feebleness, trusting in her Saviour, expressing an earnest desire that all of her [loved ones] would prepare to meet her in Heavenly world where there shall be [no more] death. On Monday afternoon a company of friends and neighbors [word missing] at her home to pay the last [word missing] of respect to one who had been a [word missing] among them. The services were officiated by Rev. John McDonald, assisted by Rev. A W. Hewitt.” (Orleans County Monitor, 23 Oct 1905)
