"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 46, No 21, p 336, May 22, 1890.
Near Albion, Wis., May 8, 1890, Mrs. Martha A. Robbins Humphrey, wife of Mr. S. J. Humphrey, of acute neuralgia.
She was born in Oneida Co., N. Y., Feb. 14, 1832. When she was about 18 years of age her parents moved to Milton, Wis. About a year later she embraced religion, and was baptized during a meeting held by the Adventists at Oakland. After moving to Milton Junction, she was married to Mr. S. J. Humphrey, June 19, 1853. She afterwards joined the Albion Church, of which she was a worthy member until the day of her death. Her Christian character has been above reproach. She will be greatly missed from her family. She was especially attentive in sickness, and wherever she could do any good.
The all-pervasive la grippe left its traces in her frame, in the form of acute neuralgia, which was the cause of her death. Her last sickness, though of short duration, was very painful. Fifty-eight years and two months was her age. Rev. N. Wardner assisted in the funeral exercises. By request, the sermon was preached from the following texts: "She hath done what she could." "Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness." W. H. E.
