 Stanstead Journal Apr 5, 1900
 On Sunday our venerable friend Mr. True Worthen reached the 96th year of his age. He has watched the days come and go for so long that he must seem "aweary" and ther new life just beyond most welcome. His intellect is quite remarkable but feebleness of body has confined him to his bed with the esception of "resting a bit" when he sits up. he still enjoys having the news read to him, especially the Stanstead Journal whose printed face has looked into his for many years.
  Sherbrooke Record- June 6, 1900
  Stanstead Journal
 Death-(Massawippi) Mr. True Worthen d. June 4, aged 96 years.
  Stanstead Journal Thursday June 7, 1900
 Our aged friend Mr. True Worthen has gone to his reward. He died at his home Monday at 5 o'clock having been tenderly cared for by his son George and his wife. He was a virtuous man. As we have vigilently watched the evening stars across the lake so also nightly for years have we seen the light in his window gleaming like a star and never once in our memory has it failed to shine just in the shadow of the mountain below the horizon in th old secluded home from which he has now gone.
  Stanstead Journal (McConnell)
 An old landmark is removed from our midst in the death of Mr. True Worthen which took place at his home on Monday June 4th. He reached the commencement of his 97th year the first of April. he was probably the oldest person in Hatley and has been almost a lifelong resident this side of the lake. he came here with his parents from Chester, new hampshire when about 15 years old. he married Miss Minerva McConnell, sister of John who was representative of the County of Stanstead and survived her some 10 or 12 years during which time he has been faithfully cared for ny his son George and wife. he was a man of kindly disposition as well as an upright Christian respected by all who knew him. Mr. Worthen is survived by four sons besides several grandchildren and other relatives. His son. S.T. Worthen was at his bedside some days and Mrs. S.T.Worthen arrived in time to attend the funeral as well as a grand-daughter, Mrs. (Rev) L.S.Bean of Saco, Maine. Funeral at the school house here on Wed at 10:30. When Mr. Worthen came to this country there was only one house at Ayer's Flat and this side of the lake was almost entirely a wilderness.
