In 1912 .Mr Bartlett went to Wendonside as manager of a property belonging to Mr Donald Munro, where he remained for 10 years. Mr and Mrs Bartlett then went to Beaumont to work for Mrs Wood, remaining there until Mr Bartlett bought Mr T. Corry's farm at Murray Flat, Waitahuna. Mrs Bartlett was of a bright and happy nature and was loved by all. The funeral was one of the largest ever seen in the district, friends coming from Invei'cargill, Oamaru, Dunedin, Cromwell, Beaumont and the surrounding districts.
