Death uf Mm. S. AVIlkliiNon.
Died, In this city, this morning, March
27th, Mrs. Ellen Winkinson, wife of
Samuel Wilkinson, aged 51 years.
Mrs. Wilkinson was born in Lanca
shire, Eng., coming to tills country in
the year 1 SCO, and has been a resident
of The Dalles for the past three years,
during which time she has made many
warm friends in our city, who now
mourn for her and deeply sympathize
with her husband, who has lost one who
for the past thirty-two yearH has been
his constant and beloved companion.
About six months ago Mrs. Wilkinson
was compelled to undergo a very serious
eurgical operation, from which she never
recovered, the physicians informing her
husband at the time that she could live
but a few months at most; but al
though expecting this sad parting, the
loss is doubly felt as Mr. Wilkinson is
childless and has no relatives here to
whom to look for comfort.
The funeral will be conducted by Rev.
J. H. Wood tomorrow (Sunday) at 2:30
p. m. from the family residence on
Washington street.
