Mrs. Lillian Logan Page, wife of Charles G. Page, died peacefully at their home, 837 Euclid avenue, Tuesday evening after a long-illness. The funeral service was conducted at the house by the Rev. E.V. Shayler on Wednesday and the remains were taken for burial to Carinville, Ill. where she was born forty-six years ago. Mrs. Page was the daughter of Col. John Logan, a cousin of General John A. Logan, each of whom commanded an Illinois regiment at the opening of the war. She is survived by her husband and little daughter, Lucy Logan Page, and by a brother, John B. Logan of St. Louis,
Mrs. Page was an invalid a large part of her life, but was a woman of indomitable energy and took a great interest in the affairs of the world. Aside from her church affiliations she was active in the club life of the village and was a member of the Sesame circle, the Nineteenth Century club and the Daughters of the American Revolution. She was especially loyal to the memories of the war in which her family figured so conspicuously and was a member of the Ladies of the Post. She was interested in the Municipal Art league and it was through her influence that the Sesame circle became affiliated with that body. She was influential in the earlier work of the Oak Park Improvement association and was actively interested in the plans of the building of an Oak Park hospital.
She was a woman of business interests also and had done a good deal of building in Oak Park and River forest, prosecuting this work at times even when confined to her bed at the hospital, whither she was compelled to go at various times in her illness. The strong traits of the Logan family manifested themselves in her in many ways. She was recognized as a leader among women and will be greatly missed. Oak Park Oak Leaves, 8 July 1905.²
