"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 73, No 27, p 895, Dec. 30, 1912.

Cordelia Burdick Kenyon was born in Rockville, R. I., April 14, 1829, and died at her home in Hope Valley, R. I., Sabbath day, December 14, 1912, aged 83 years and 8 months.

October 24, 1842, she was baptized and united with the Rockville Seventh-day Baptist Church, and continued a faithful member for more than seventy years till called home. February 18, 1849, she was married to Edwin O. Kenyon, who died July 3, 1910. To them were born three children: Prof. A. B. Kenyon of Alfred University, Alfred, N. Y.; Myron A. Kenyon of Cottrell Co. Pressworks, Westerly, R. I.; and Cora L. Kenyon, of Hope Valley High School. The three children, the five grandchildren and the only sister were all present at the funeral. They with other friends mourn the loss of a good woman who was kind and helpful in sickness and in times of need.

Mrs. Kenyon was a woman of sterling Christian character, an example worthy to be followed. She was of a modest and retiring disposition, but interested in the things of the Master's kingdom. She loved her home and was faithful and efficient in training her children to love the Lord and to do what was right. The children rise up and call her blessed and are blessed indeed in having had such a mother.

Funeral at her late home, December 17, 1912.
