February 23, 1910 – Wayland News

Wilma Grace Williams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Williams, was born March 3, 1905 at Rapid City, South Dakota and died February 18, 1910 at the home of her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. R. N. Williams, age 4 years 11 months, and 15 days. She leaves to mourn their loss father, mother, two brothers, and two sisters besides a host of relatives and friends. Funeral services were held at Finley Chapel Sunday afternoon at 2:30 conducted by Rev. Weston of Mt. Pleasant and she was laid to rest in Finley cemetery amid a profusion of beautiful flowers.

What makes this doubly sad is the family arrived here on Christmas to spend the holidays and the little girl took sick shortly after and suffered for almost five weeks with catarrhal fever and then of pneumonia of which she died. The family will return home at once.
