30 July, 1891 - The Pilot - Edith May Greene
Mr. Kelley brought us the painful intelligence of the death of the eldest daughter of old settler, William Greene, yesterday; the funeral was held at the residence this afternoon, Rev. Power of Blair preaching the sermon at the house after which the body was brought to the Calhoun cemetery for the burial. A great many people leaving the harvesting and other pressing work to be present. The pallbearers were six young girls: Misses Maud Gilbert, Cora Blodgett, Judith Woods, Lottie Jipp, Lena Swagher and Addie Brooks. Among the floral decorations was a large wreath prepared by the skill and kindness of Grandmother Robinson of Calhoun.
