    Hannah Hull Burdick was born in Farmington, Ill., August 7, 1842, and died at Milton, Wis., January 20, 1910, aged 67 years, 5 months and 13 days. She was the daughter of Rev. O. P. and Emma Davis Hull, being the second in a family of seven children, and the only daughter. When but a girl she was baptized at Walworth, Wis., by her father and became a member of the S. D. B. church at that place.

    She was educated at Milton and Albion going to Albion Academy because she could pay her way there by teaching in the school. On finishing school work at Albion she taught for a short time in the public schools. There are those still living, now past middle life, who testify of her sympathy and kindness shown to them when they were timid pupils of hers so many years ago.

    On October 13, 1866, she was married to Silas G. Burdick at Alden, Minn. Mr. and Mrs. Burdick began housekeeping on the old Burdick homestead north-east of Milton where most of their married life was spent. From here in later years they removed to Milton Junction where Mr. Burdick engaged in the lumber business with the late Wm. B. West, and where he died Oct. 29, 1893.

    To this happy couple were born three children, all of whom are still living, and were permitted to minister to her in her last sickness, she who had given so much of her life for them.

    The children are Nellie, wife of Rev. Geo. B. Shaw of North Loup, Neb., Harold M., who lives on the old homestead, and Lura, wife of Dr. Paul Johnson of Clarkston, Wash. There are also nine grandchildren. Two brothers are still living, O. P. Hull of Corona, Calif.; and Charles B. Hull of Chicago.

    Since she left the Milton Junction home a few years ago she has spent her time with her children and with Miss Lucy Hall of Milton. Aside from the members of the immediate family no one will miss her more than Miss Hall, who has been a life long friend, and who in these later years was like a sister to her. Mrs. Burdick was always a consistent member of the Seventh-Day Baptist church. From Walworth she removed her membership to Milton and when the Milton Junction church was organized in 1875 became a constituent member, and has ever since been a loyal member of that church. She was an unselfish mother, possessing that love which is 'never calculating, always hoping.' The esteem in which she was held by all who knew her was attested by the large number of neighbors and friends who attended her funeral. Services were held in the home where she died and at the S. D. B. church in Milton Junction, conducted by her pastor, Rev. A. J. C. Bond, assisted in the home by President W. C. Daland. The body was laid to rest beside that of her husband in the Milton Junction cemetery.
