Mrs. Jacob Wineland died Saturday evening at her home, east of the city. She was about sixty-eight years of age. She came to this vicinity when Council Bluffs was the nearest town, and with her husband, Jacob Wineland she lived on the old farm till the time of her death. They have had some interesting experiences during the pioneer days. She leaves her husband and seven children, three sons and four daughters. They were all home at the time of her death except the eldest, Burr, who had been with her for some weeks, but was called home to Nebraska by telegram but a few hours before his mother died. Funeral service was conducted at the home by Rev. J. A. Williams of the Congregational church and interment was made in the Avoca cemetery. A large number of sympathizing neighbors gathered to do honor to the good woman's memory.
