LARS OLSEN, OLD TIMER, SUCCUMBS
Dies in Evanston Hospital Resulting From Dropsy After Pneumonia Attack.
The sad intelligence was received in Green River Wednesday that Lars Olsen, a pioneer resident of this section of the state, had passed away at his home in Evanston.
Mr. Olsen was well and favorably known in the part of Wyoming, where he has resided for many years, coming to this section of Wyoming in 1885 from Provo, Utah, and has been identified in stock raising and other pursuits in these parts since that time. He lived in Green River from 1885 to 1898, a period of fifteen years, moving then to Evanston, where his family now resides. Mr. Olsen has been working in Green River for a year or more, until his health necessitated him going to his Evanston home.
He was a genial, good-hearted man, who stood high with all his acquaintances for his manly worth, and his passing will be regretted by a host of friends, wherever he was known.
About five weeks ago he was taken ill and taken to his home in Evanston, and after a hard fight against pneumonia was stricken with dropsy, which was the cause of his disease.
He leaves a wife, two daughters and a son, Gerald Olsen, a popular railroad man at this point, who have the sympathy of a host of friends in the loss of a wonderful husband and father.
Funeral arrangements had not been perfected at the time of going to press.
