The remains were broght to Lake Benton Monday noon.

He also followed his trade in St. Paul, Wisconsin and North Dakota for some time. He came to Lake Benton in the spring of 1893 and has followed his trade from that time until his sickness and death.

He was married to Miss Pauline Friis February 19th, 1901. One son was born to the union.

Besides his wife and son, William, he leaves four brothers, Peter, Nels and Hans of Lake Benton, and Oliph M of St. Paul. Aside from these and two cousins in this state, and numerous nephews and nieces, he has no known relatives in this country.

He was a loving and provident husband and father, a spledid citizen and will be missed by all who knew him. The family have the sympathy of the community in their sudden bereavement.
