      Miss Zella M. Sackett, (the 5958 of this work), in a letter of recent date, written is so plain a hand that it is indeed a pleasure to read it, relates the following most remarkable chain of fatalities:

      "Mrs. Betsey Otis, whose good memory made it possible to trace our line, died on her eighty-seventh birthday, Jan. 23, 1907. She expected to die on her birthday because it had been a fatal day in her family. Her husband was buried on her birthday; her son-in-law died on her birthday; her daughter died on her birthday, and she, the last of her family, died on her birthday." [Weygant, pgs 492-493]

      Betsey Elvira Sackett was born 23 Jan 1820. She married Joseph W. Otis (10 Oct 1819 - 23 Jan 1862), son of Samuel Otis and Sybil Nott, on 11 Nov 1844. They lived in Chester, Hampden, MA. (She may be the Betsey Otis who appears on the 1880 census as a widow living in Middletown, Middlesex, CT.) Betsey died 23 Jan 1907.
