OBITUARY—LELAND LINDE
Leland Walter Linde was born Jan. 5, 1915, at Alberta, Canada, and came with his parents to Dorchester, Iowa, in the fall of 1920, where they settled on a farm, later moving to the village of Dorchester. Here he attended the public and church schools. He was to be confirmed some time this spring. As a young lad he was ambitious and showed a spirit of great promise for the things that pertained to his future welfare. It was his desire to accommodate. He died near his home on April 5th. He leaves to mourn his parents, a sister, brother, one grandfather, two grandmothers, many cousins and other relatives and numerous friends and playmates.

Interment was made in the Methodist Episcopal Cemetery near Dorchester. The funeral service Sunday was very largely attended and there was not even standing room in the church. Rev. A. C. Prust officiated.

(Dorchester column)A very large crowd assembled for the funeral of Leland Linde Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. from the family home, which was a splendid tribute to the boy and spoke more eloquently than words of the high esteem in which he was held. Leland was a very bright and obedient boy and will be sadly missed by relatives and schoolmates, who mourn his untimely death.
