Dickinson, resident of Monroe, for nearly 30 years, died Friday afternoon at 4:15 after an illness of nine days with influenza and pneumonia. She had been a partial invalid for several years, which fact, coupled with her advanced age, weakened her resistance to the last fatal attack of illness. Mrs. Dickinson was born June 3, 1840, in New York state, being nearly 87 years old at the time of her death. She was married to Solomon A. Dickinson, a veteran of the civil war, Jan. 17, 1864, in Humphrey, N.Y. They moved to Iowa in 1870, and to Nebraska in 1874, homesteading in the O'Kay neighborhood. After the death of Mr. Dickinson, Aug. 27, 1887, Mrs. Dickinson resided for a time in Genoa, and then came to Monroe, which had been her home ever since. She was a prominent worker in the M.E. church and was a life member of the Nebraska W.C.T.U., acting as director of the mothers' department of the local union for many years. Four sons survive her – John Dickinson, of Padrona, Colo.; Frank Dickinson, of Monroe; Lou Dickinson, of Beverly Hill, Cal., and Fred Dickinson, of Bushell, Neb. All the boys, except Lou, were at her bedside when death came. Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon from the Union church in Monroe, with burial beside the body of her husband in New Hope cemetery.
