Wife of I. N.
"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 13, No 45, p 179, Apr. 16, 1857.
March 24th, of puerperal fever, Lucy Jane, daughter of Job and Prudence Vanhorn, and wife of Isaac Newton Loofboro. The deceased was in her eighteenth year, and had been several years a member of the Seventh day Baptist Church, and maintained her Christian character to the end of her short career. From the time she was first taken with the fever of which she died, she was solemnly impressed with the conviction that it would be unto death, and that her departure was at hand, and so expressed herself to all her attending friends. For some time there was a painful internal struggle, between a love of life, and this full conviction that she must thus early relinquish all, and try the realities of another world; but at length Christian faith and hope triumphed over the powers of nature, and she became not only willing but anxious to depart and join the happy company who have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
