Walkley burial - error in original

In the following entry the age of '54' is a correct transcription but is an error in the original register. She was 24, as in the GRO death index. Perhaps a note could be added?

CROSS, Dora (~, age 54).
Died at 15 Woodland St; Buried on August 27, 1918 in ~ ground;
Grave Number 27, Section E of Walkley Cemetery Cemetery, Nichols Rd.

---

This is her getting married the previous year aged 23...

HAGUE, Dora (Spinster, age 23, ~, residing at 15 Woodland St).
Married Fred CROSS, on June 24, 1917, by G C Weaver (Banns) at
St John The Baptist Church, Owlerton. Father's name is Harry Hague (Joiner).
Married in the presence of Harry Hague, Annie R Cross.
