MRS. MARY A. WILT 91

  Mrs. Mary A. Wilt, one of the oldest residents of Blair county, quietly 
passed her ninety-first birthday at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. 
George W. Dietrich, 2610 West Chestnut avenue, last Saturday.  She received 
numerous congratulations from friends from far and near.  She is in excellent 
health and has the use of all her faculties, with the exception of her eyes.
  The aged lady was the oldest of a family of fourteen, of whom but three 
besides herself survive.  Her maiden name was Delozier.  Her husband was the 
late David C. Wilt, and they resided at Wilt's bridge, in Blair township.  
She is the mother of Harry Wilt, of W. F. Sellers & Co.'s jewelry store.
