"The body of Mrs. M. L. Wilcox was brought here Tuesday night as per arrangements announced in last weeks news. Arriving at 8 o'clock the body was at once taken to the home of Dr. N.S. Tefft where short services were held the following day at 10:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. W.M. Gillis. A large number of old acquaintances gathered at the home of the Doctor on Wednesday to pay their respects and to take a farewell look at their departed friend. The remains were quietly laid to rest in the Plainview cemetery along side of that of the husband and father whose death preceeded her's nearly seventeen and one half years. The body was accompanied from Minneapolis by her two sons and two daughters, Dr. Asa and Cassius Wilcox, Mrs. Nellie Ricker and Mrs. Frances Washburn, the wife of the former, also Mrs. Leech, of Aberdeen and A.Y. Felton of Minneapolis." [Plainview News (MN), June 3, 1893; obituary provided by Find A Grave Member #50302142]
