Wife of Henry C.
"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 56, No 5, p 79, Jan. 29, 1900.
Temperance (Burdick) Babcock was born in DeRuyter, N. Y., Nov. 15, 1811, and died in Albion, Wis., Jan. 10, 1900.
She was married to Henry C. Babcock, Nov. 16, 1831. For a few years they lived in DeRuyter, then moved to Brookfield. In 1856 they moved to Albion, Wis., and settled on a small farm which thereafter was their home. She was the mother of eight children, three sons and five daughters. One of the sons and three of the daughters, together with her husband, preceded her to the spirit land. The winter following her marriage she embraced religion, was baptized by Eld. Ephraim Curtis, and united with the DeRuyter Seventh-day Baptist church. On her removal to Brookfield, she transferred her membership to the church at that place, and on coming to Albion she united with the Seventh-day Baptist church, of which she was a true and faithful member until called to her reward. She was a faithful wife, a kind and loving mother, a sympathetic friend and neighbor, ever forgetful of self in her interest for others, and in her efforts to alleviate suffering, to help the needy and bring sunshine and joy into the hearts and homes of those about her. Her trust in God was unbounded, and in the midst of bodily pain she was always cheerful, not fearing death, but rejoiced in the hope of eternal life. Funeral on Sabbath, January 13, conducted by her pastor in the presence of a large audience of relatives, friends and neighbors. S. H. B.
