    <span style="font-size: 10pt"><font face="Times New Roman">As noted in this paper some days ago, Jerry Willison and wife, who reside three mile east of the city, had started for Montana in hope of benefiting Mrs. Willison&rsquo;s health, she being a sufferer from consumption. They got no farther on their journey than Garden City, Kansas, when Mrs. Willison was taken worse and they stopped. Her parents were telegraphed for and left for that place Tuesday night. Yesterday Mrs. Willison died and today the body accompanied by the family, arrived here for burial. Announcement for the funeral has not yet been made, but it is understood that it will be held at the home tomorrow and interment will be made in the Longwood cemetery.</font></span> <p style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; tab-ss: .25in"><span style="font-size: 10pt"></span></p><span style="font-size: 10pt"><font face="Times New Roman">Published in the Ponca City Daily Courier, Ponca, Oklahoma, June 24, 1904</font></span><span style="font-size: 10pt"><font face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></span><span style="font-size: 10pt"><font face="Times New Roman">Obituary:</font></span><span style="font-size: 10pt"><font face="Times New Roman">Death &ndash; Mrs. Kate Willison, wife of J.
