Wilcox, a pioneer of twenty-one years standing, who died at his farm near Dried Meat Lake at 7 o'clock on Saturday evening. At the funeral services, which were held at the house on Monday last, a large crown of sorrowing relatives and friends were in attendance, and a wealth of floral tributes bore eloquent testimony to the esteem and affection in which Mr. Wilcox was held by the community at large. Services at the home and the graveside were conducted by Rev. H. E. Gordon, of Camrose, and six nephews of the deceased acted as pall bearers. Interment was made in the Skafse cemetery, and the cortege, which followed the coffin, was one of the longest yet seen in the district, friends from far and near making the journey to pay their last respects to Mr. Wilcox. Although the deceased had been ill for the past three years, his health had improved considerably since going out to his farm in the spring, and the news of his death on Saturday came as a shock to his many friends here. Born in the State of Iowa, Mr. Wilcox came to this district 21 years ago from Park Rapids, Minnesota. On arrival he took up farming in the Dried Meat Lake district, and except for the few months in the winter when he lived in Camrose, has spent all his time since coming here out on the farm. In addition to his wife he leaves a family of six daughters and four sons to mourn his loss, one of the daughters, Miss Ethel Wilcox, being a valued member of the staff of the "Canadian." Other relatives living in the district, included six nephews who acted as pall bearers, Messrs. F.K., George and Roy Carter, and Messrs. Fred, Robert and Harry Wilcox, and Mr. W.S. Carter, former town constable, who is a brother-in-law. A brother of the late Mr. Wilcox died two years ago during the influenza epidemic. Two brothers and a sister also survive, the former being Thomas Wilcox, now in California, and George Wilcox, located in Washington. The sister, Mrs. McKinley, is now living at Drumheller, Alberta. Excerpt from The Camrose Canadian, Thursday, June 23, 1921 James was originally buried in New Salem Skafse Cemetery, later reinterred in Camrose Cemetery.∼Disintered
