resulting from heart leakage. Mrs. Wilkinson resided here a number of years and by her quiet,
unassuming manner, personality and upright character, endeared herself to all. Pursuant to her wish the remains were brought here for interment, services being held at the M. E. church Sunday, May 12th at 2 p.m. Rev. Yersin officiating.
The beautiful and impressive ceremony of the Eastern Star, of which the deceased was a member, were held at the cemetery. The pall bearers were: Henry Hoskin, E. C. Baker, A. L. Anderson, W. M. Long, A. S. King, Hugh Baker. Ida M. Pickard was born at Freeport, Ill., July 11, 1856. United in marriage with Geo L. Wilkinson at Richland Center, Wis., Sept 19, 1874. From this union four sons were born: Robert L of Burlington, George W. of Monroe, Wis., W. S. of Waterloo, Iowa and J. E. of Brighton, Colo. She became a charter member of the Order of the Eastern Star at Neola, Ia. Upon moving to Burlington some twelve years ago she changed her membership in this grand order to Aurora chapter No. 73 of this city.
