CIcElY MAY WILSON
Daughter of the Late George W. vii.

A Few Days.

Daughter of the Late George w. vii.
son Succumbed After an Illness of
A Few Days.
The many friends and acauaintap-
ces of Miss Cicely May Wilson. aged
% years, daughter of the late George
w. Wilson. of Wilson, this county.
were shocked Sunday morning to
learn of her sudden and wholly unex-
pected death, which occurred at her
home Saturday night about midnight.
The cause of Miss Wilson's demise
was, presumably, an intestinal dis
order with which she was stricken
Thursday afternoon while out walk
ing near her home, being accompan-
led by an acquaintance who assisted
the lady to the house and summoned
a physician from a nearby point.
DIR. Mark Wilson, of Elkins, brother
of the deceased, arrived at the home
Saturday but the disease had made
such inroads upon the patient that
nothing could be done to save or pro
long her life.
Miss Wilson was the only daughter
in the family, her mother, Mrs. Eliza
Wilson, and seven brothers, surviv-
ing her. She was educated at Buck
harmon where size was converted and
became member of the Presbyterian
church. After her graduation from
Buckhannon she went to PhiladeI-
phia where she received her educa-
tion in music aud the fine arts, beng
an adept in painting and sketching,
returning home from the school in
that city few months ago. She was
highly esteemed for her womanlv
qualities, kindness of disposition and
fealty to her home and friends.
The funeral of the deceased was
conducted Monday afternoon by Re :.
John NJ. Davis, of Oakland, assisted
by Rev. Isaac W. Alternately, of near
Wilson. The interment was made on
the farm, the remains being placed
by the side OF those of her fathec, who
died a few years ago. The services
were held at the home and were at
tended by a large number of sympa-
thetic fliends and neighbors.
