Born, Josiah Shattuck Hartwell, to Jonathan and Elizabeth (Walker) Hartwell.
___________________________
SHATTUCK HARTWELL died very suddenly of nephritis, last week Wednesday, at his Boston home. He was a native of this town and the body was brought here for burial last Saturday afternoon, the funeral being held in the Orthodox Church, of which he had been a member for over forty years. Rev. Amelia A. Frost officiated.
He graduated from Harvard and the Harvard law school, practicing his profession while in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he was married.
He had been a member of the house of representatives, and during the Civil War was on the staff of his classmate, Gen. E. A. Wild.
He was employed at the Boston Customhouse for upwards of thirty years. He was devotedly attached to his old home here, where he lived until advancing years compelled him to winter nearer to his place of business.
Last August, surrounded by children and grandchildren, Mr. and Mrs. Hartwell quietly observed their golden wedding anniversary, welcoming old friends for the friendly grasp and pleasant words. A widow and six children survive him. We learn that Mrs. Hartwell will spend the winter with her daughter, Mrs. Sewall, in North Brookfield.
(Mr. Hartwells' obituary was in The Littleton Guidon on Nov. 11, 1899 and a copy can be found on the cemetery website)
