Morris passed away at Birney Hospital in Estherville, August 18, 1923, where he was taken for treatment some two months ago. Mr. Wilkinson has not been in the best of health the past two years and has failed noticeably since the death of his wife last Thanksgiving Day.

Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Hotchkiss officiating. Monday, the body was laid to rest beside his wife in Superior Cemetery.

He is survived by his three sons and one daughter, whom were all present during his illness and two brothers and one sister. The children are Edwin of Jackson, MN., Harland of Alpha, MN., Harry of Peterson, IA., and Mrs. Melvin Wade, who with her husband and family came from Wisconsin to live with her father and help care for him since the mothers death.
