MRS. HOLT FUNERAL HELD YESTERDAY

Mrs. Cecelia Holt died at her home here late last Sunday night. She had been in fading health for a couple of years, but only recently was she seriously ill.

Funeral service was conducted in the St. Petri church yesterday afternoon.

Mrs. Holt was 78 years old. She came to Story City from the Huxley neighborhood when she was about 16 years old and had lived here ever since. Her first husband was John Jondall. Following his death she was married to Sam Saldall, and upon his death she became the wife of the late T. E. Holt.

From her second marriage she has two step-children surviving, namely, Clarence Saldal and Mrs. Mabel Gunderson, both of Los Angeles, Cal. Two brothers and two sisters survive her--George and Sam Barnes of Huxley, Mrs. Carrie Sondall of Wisconsin, and Mrs. Dena Overland of Los Angeles.
