The Tribune – Clintonville, Wisconsin

October 12, 1888

Yesterday afternoon Huldah Burr Lutsey died at the family residence in the fourth ward, after an illness of but a few days’ duration, though her health has been far from robust for the past few years. Her fatal illness resulted from a complication of diseases, in which chronic asthma, catarrhal fever and pleursy were the more prominent. The lady was 65 years of age and came to this city in 1856, when hardly a dozen buildings marked its site. She was then a widow, her husband, a Mr. Andrews having died in the east, and for a time she taught a small school. In the autumn of that year she was married to Josiah Lutsey who survives her, aged and feeble. She was a woman of many excellent qualities and strong religious principles; long identified with the local Congregational denomination, and prominent in many good and charitable works in her more active years. In her death another of New London’s pioneers passes from the wilderness of earth’s hardships into the fair land of rest eternal. The funeral occurs at the Congregational church at 2 o’clock p.m. of Saturday. Rev. Wm. Blackwell, of Rhinelander, officiating.
