"Funeral Held"

The funeral of Mrs. Sylvia Jane Wilson who died at her Puyallup home Friday at the age of 104, was to be held this afternoon at the Baptist church, Rev. McBain Milne of Puyallup officiating. Burial will be in the Boistfort cemetery, near which place Mrs. Wilson lived from 1863 to 10 years ago. Six grandsons will act as pallbearers. The funeral is expected to attract an unusually large attendance, due to the great number of relatives of Mrs. Wilson in Lewis county, of which she was one of the oldest pioneers.
