Kittie Hoyt Chilton Times January 30, 1904

Died at her home in Marlborough, Mich., on Jan. 18, 1904, Mrs. Kittie Hoyt, aged 25 years and 7 months. The deceased woman was the youngest daughter of Mrs. Catherine Higgins, of this city, and was born in the town of Brothertown. Some five years ago she accepted a position as trained nurse in the hospital for insane at Wauwatosa and there met Jesse A. Hoyt, to whom she was married on Oct. 1, 1902. Shortly after their marriage her health began to fail and she resigned her position at the hospital. Recovering she again took a position at the hospital, but some six months ago, her health again failing her husband took her to Michigan. She gradually grew worse and in November last her mother was called to assist in caring for her. Everything possible was done to prolong her life, but death had marked her as a victim. During her illness she never complained but made it bright and pleasant for those about her. She was a general favorite with all who knew her and death was a sad blow to her heartbroken husband and other relatives. Friends at Wauwatosa hospital who knew her sent a beautiful floral design as a tribute of respect. The remains arrived in this city on Wednesday evening and were taken to the home of Patrick McKenna. At 10 o'clock on Thursday morning the funeral was held from St. Augustine's church. Besides a husband, she leaves a mother, two brothers and two sisters to mourn her death.
