MRS. KNUTE HELGESON

OBITUARY

Ole Knutson Haugen, who has been sick the past 16 years, passed away very quietly Saturday afternoon at the home of his son, R. O. Knutson, four miles northeast of Lyle. The deceased had attained more than the allotted span of years, having reached, not only his three score and ten years, but four score and eight, on the 20th of last March. Few have the privilege of living more than half a century in a community as he did, and see it develop from a wilderness to a highly-improved, well-settled community.

Last Friday shortly after one o'clock the Death of Angel made another visit to our community and beckoned to one of our citizens to fellow across the shining waters to the better land. The call came without warning while the called was in apparent good health.

DIED-- Saturday February 23, 1901, of hemorrhage of the spinal cord, Henry the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Hans Helgerson (sic). Interment took place at the Mona cemetery February 27.
