| I found the following
two items among papers that there at Dad's [E. M. Cruickshank] in
Medicine Bow in June 1994. They are about the serious illness of
Williamina [Dollie] (Cruickshank), daughter of James A. and Isabella
(Polson) Cruickshank. She was living in Blair, NE. at the time the
articles were written. There are no newspaper names or dates on
either article. |
MRS. ISABELLE TILDEN HOSTESS TO RELATIVES
| Mrs. [Mary] Isabelle
Moore Tilden, who was called from Honolulu to be with her mother,
Mrs. Sherry Moore, who is seriously ill, was hostess at Sunday
dinner at the Eat Shop to her four aunts, who were called here for
the same reason, and to her father, Sherry Moore, Mrs. Joe Lazure,
and Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Allen.
In the afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Allen took the company for a trip
through the DeSota woods and the old home, the Cruickshank farm. The
sisters enjoyed the outing and stopped in the hills long enough to
gather a bouquet of wild flowers, reminiscent of their girlhood
days.
At five o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Blanchard entertained the
sisters at tea. Later in the evening, three nephews and their wives
called at the Moore home. They were Messrs. and Mesdames Frank,
William, and John Mumaugh, of Omaha.
The visiting sisters are Mrs. Bessie Marshall of Casper, Wyoming;
Mrs. Jean Burnett of Medicine Bow, Wyoming, Mrs. Etta Nickerson, of
Red Bluff, California, and Mrs. Belle Summers of near O'Neill,
Nebraska.
