Edward A. Bartlett, SO, di-

Bartlett had been at his

He is survived by his wife,
Marguerite F. Bartlett, and a
daughter, Ann Elizabeth Bart
lett, 5. Mrs. Bartlett was with
her husband when he died.
His death came as a shock to
school board officials who said
Bartlett had no prior record of
heart disease that they knew
about.
Bartlett was a native of Man
chester, N. H., and came to the
county school system in 1854 as
principal of Leland Junior High
School. He held that post until
1856 when he was named prin-
cipal of Northwood High
School.
He earned his bachelor de-
gree in business administration
and masters degree in educa.
