The Ionia Standard, Friday, February 10, 1911
The funeral service for Mrs. Martha Tuttle Benedict was attended at the late 
home on Lytle street Saturday p.m. and the remains were taken to the Tuttle 
cemetery in Orange, near the home of her birth and girlhood days, for their 
last earthly resting place.  Mrs. Benedict’s last illness was brief, only 
about a week, with la grippe, but the attack was too severe for her enfeebled 
constitution.

Mrs. Benedict was the daughter of Nelson Tuttle, and the widow of Hutson 
Benedict, both gone hence.  She leaves to mourn her demise, one daughter by 
adoption, Mrs. Grace Benedict Feeny, and two sisters, Mrs. Wm. Adgate and Mrs. 
Ferguson of Orange.

Deceased was aged 64 years, and for the most part of the 20 years last past 
was a resident of Ionia.  She was beloved for her womanly qualities and her 
splendid devotion to every principle of good.  Dr. M. M. Callen officiated at 
the funeral service, and there was lovely singing by Mrs. G. M. Phelps and 
Miss Kate Benedict.  Mrs. Benedict was a member of the Methodist church of 
this city.
