   The grave was dedicated by Bishop Joseph E. Wilson, of Inglewood, California (youngest son of Lawson Green Wilson)

   All his children were present with the exception of Robert Monroe, who had just returned home to California, after visiting with his father.

   In a newspaper article written about Lawson Green Wilson, 14 September, reporting of his celebrated 88th birthday anniversary at his home on Thursday evening of 12 September, it mentioned that Lawson believed himself to be the last Utah survivor of the Confederate forces of the Civil War.  The evening was spent, surrounded by 20 of his children, and their families.

   Uncovered in a search for articles to be used in a Centennial display in a classroom in the Lehi third grade, an old Utah pioneer jubilee cup made in 1897, attracted its share of attention among the many relics brought in by the youngsters.  The cup, belonging to the family of Lyall A. Wilson, was made of lightweight metal, possible steel, covered with a bakelite finish, both inside and out, and so constructed that it had utilitarian as well as artistic value.

   It belonged, originally, to Mr. Wilson's grandfather, Lawson Green Wilson, often known as Lossen, a pioneer settler in nothern Utah Country, and fell into the hands of its present owners some ten years earlier when they were married.  It was made in 1897 in commemoration of the jubilee celebration making the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Utah by the "Morman" pioneers.  It was covered on the outside with pictures, dimmed by age, of ox teams and wagons, a handcarat, and in the center on a scroll was a buffalo.  On the bottom of the cup, inside, was inscribed "Utah Pioneer Jubilee 1847 - 1897".

   Lyall Wilson's wife, Luella, said that it had been kept among other pioneer relics in their knick-knack shelves until a few years ago when they moved, and it had been placed away in the attic.  Their young son, who brought it to school reported that on occasions it had been used to store "daddy's bullet clips".  Approximately six inches high and three inches in diameter across the top, it was built for utility as well as a memento of the jubilee celebration, and has sometimes been called a "milk mug".  It has been said that only 100 of those cups were made for the jubilee.
