Mrs. Sally Wilhoit died last Saturday morning at the home of her

Mrs. Lucy Ralph, Rich Hill, Mo.; G. E. Wilhoit, Bloomington, Ill, Mrs.
Mattie Ewell and Miss Estella Wilhoit, Mattoon.  Her husband died many
years ago.  She has been a resident of this township until two or three
years ago, when she went to Mattoon to reside with her granddaughter.
