Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, December 1, 1897 Mexico Independent - Mexico, New York - Texas, November 29, 1897 - Saturday evening, November 27, Herbert Marsden, only son of Harrison and Charlotte Marsden, passed away after but a few days illness. All that kind friends and physicians could do was of no avail. Bert, as he was familiarly called, was an unusually bright and interesting boy of 16 years, standing high in scholarly attainments, a student at the Union School at Mexico and a general favorite among his associates. His parents, especially his almost heartbroken mother, who frantic with grief and in a reduced condition of health, is almost unable to bear the shock, have the sympathy of all. May she learn to say with the poet, "He gave, He took, He will restore, He doeth all things well." The funeral will be attended from the house on Tuesday, the 30th, at 11 a.m., Elder Peck of New Haven officiating.
Newspaper Obituary - Friday, December 3, 1897 Oswego Daily Times - Oswego, New York - Herbert Marsden, youngest son of Harrison and Charlotte Marsden, died at his home in Texas, Saturday, November 27, 1897, after an illness of but only six days, aged 16 years, 1 month, 17 days. All was done that anxious, loving hearts and willing hands could do but all in vain and Saturday he passed away. Words would be too weak to describe the heart breaking grief of the parents, whose once happy home is made desolate by the early death of their boy. He was a bright, active boy of good habits, affectionate and dutiful in his home, and was much beloved and will be sincerely mourned by all who knew him. Besides a large circle of friends he leaves a father, mother, two brothers and three sisters who have the sympathy of the entire community in their great bereavement.
