BRIGHTON, Ia. -- Mrs. Julia BORKOSKI, 88, died yesterday at 10:45 a.m. in Mercy hospital at Iowa City following surgery on her hip which was broken in a fall at her home Sunday.

The rosary will be recited there at 8 p.m. today and funeral services will be held at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday in St. Mary's Polish Catholic church southwest of Brighton. The Rev. Paul C.

Mrs. BORKOSKI, the former Julia KISEZAMOSKI (sic - KNENOSKI in the 1925 Census), was born in Poland July 25, 1865, and came with her parents to Geneseo, Ill., at the age of six. She married Alexander BORKOSKI in November, 1882, at LaSalle, Ill. They came to Iowa in 1886 and settled on the farm where Mrs. BORKOSKI spent the rest of her life. Her husband died May 16, 1935 (sic - May 7, 1935).
