Chico Record, Friday, February 28, 1913, pg 4 col 4: Mrs. Julia Miller Dies Suddenly After Stroke of Paralysis. Happy and Apparently in Good Health in Afternoon, Dead Four Hours Later. Hundreds of friends of Mrs. Julia Miller were shocked last night when they learned of her sudden death less than four hours after she had been shopping in Chico and enjoying the best of health and spirits.
Mrs. Miller suffered a stroke of paralysis about 5:30 last evening after she returned to her home at 502 Esplanade. Death occurred at 9:15 last night despite the fact that every effort to save her life was made.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Miller visited the business section and conversed with many friends. She was in a happy frame of mind and there was a lack of anything to indicate that she did not have many more years of life. She hardly had returned home when she was stricken. Drs. J.E. and H.E. Rodley rushed to her home and the former stayed with her until her death, but all efforts to save her were unavailing.
Mrs. Miller was born in Wales in 1852. While still a small child she came to the United States with her parents. At an early age the girl, Julia A. Benjamin, went to Cherokee with her parents. In 1868 she was married to Joseph Miller, a wealthy cattleman and land owner, who passed away about three years ago. For many years Mrs. Miller resided near Yankee Hill. Five years ago she came to Chico with her husband and who then was living.
A son, W.J. Miller, president of the First National Bank of Chico, survives her. Two sisters, Mrs. Sarah Allen and Mrs. Carrie Chambers, both residents of this city also survive.
The many amiable qualities and charitable disposition of Mrs. Miller won her a host of friends in all sections of Butte county. Every resident for miles about in the foothill section of the county near Cherokee, Pentz and Yankee Hill is numbered among her friends. Since taking up her residence in Chico Vecino she has gained a host of admiring friends.
Arrangements for the funeral have not been made. Burial may be made at Cherokee.
