Holt’s Oldest Resident Is 104
Mrs. Joseph Axtell (above), who when she was a small girl
was told to go west for her health, Friday observed her 104th
birthday anniversary. The day was spent quietly at her home in
Stuart. She received a number of friends. Mrs. Axtell is Holt coun
ty’s oldest resident. Due to Mrs. Axtell’s declining health and in
creasing need for rest and quiet, no celebration was planned. She
was born in New York state in 1851, moved to Iowa when she was
a young girl, came to Nebraska in 1880. Mr. Axtell died in 1911.
She resides with her daughter, Miss Pearl.—The Frontier Photo.
