Pioneer of 1863 Died Here Saturday

Mrs. Emma Tolton died last Saturday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Dave Hopkins of Rock Springs, after a lingering illness due to general debility.

Mrs. Tolton was born in Jackson, Miss., April 1, 1860, and emigrated to Beaver, Utah, in 1863, following the overland trail in company with early day pioneers. She removed to Manila, Utah, in October, 1896, being one of the first settlers to enter the new famous Lucerne Valley on Lower Green river.

Eight children survive the passing of a faithful and devoted mother, three of whom are residents of Rock Springs and five residents of Manila, Utah.

The remains were taken to Manila Monday, where funeral and burial took place in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends.
