LUCINDA KREIDER WILDER
1860-1925

	The services for Mrs. Dexter Wilder which were held 
at the Nevada Mills church last Tuesday afternoon was 
largely attended.  The services read by the Rev. Dr. F. 
B. Humphreys, of Angola, were very impressive. Rev. 
Ralph Davison, pastor of the Nevada Mills church, where 
the deceased was a member, assisted.  Burial, which took 
place at Greenlawn, east of Orland, was in charge of 
undertaker Weicht, of Angola.  The floral offerings were 
many and beautiful, and in charge of her Sunday school 
class. The children were all able to reach here for the 
services except Roland, of Los Angeles, Cal.  The family 
of Charley Wilder, of Detroit, were not present; one 
sister, Mrs. Susan VanAlstine, of Battle Creek, Mich., 
was unable to attend; two sisters being present.  Mrs. 
Amanda Greenwalt, of Zion City, Ill., Mrs. Priscilla 
Moore and her son, of Lima, Ohio; one brother, Levi 
Krider and his daughter, Mrs. Orrin Good and family, of 
Bronson, attended.  We can say her life's work is 
finished but the example of a true and noble character 
still remains with us.
