Her remains were taken to Bangor Wednesday, and on Thursday forenoon the obsequies were held at the residence of her father on Palm Street. Her remains were carried to Mt. Hope where she peacefully rests. Mrs. Wardwell was, with her husband and family, a resident of Ellsworth for 3 years." -Ellsworth Maine American
