Sad Death of a Young Lady – Miss Martha Attleson of Jerico Succumbs to an Attach of Quinsy
Miss Martha Attleson, aged 17 years, died at the home of her parents near Jerico last Friday night, after an illness of only a few days with quinsy. The funeral was held from the Crane Creek Norwegian Lutheran Church on Sunday. A large concourse of relatives and friends followed the remains to their last resting place in the cemetery near the church. Deceased was a bright girl and loved by all who knew her. The grief stricken family has the sympathy of many friends in these sad days when the light of home has been darkened by the shadow of death.
[believed to be the daughter of John and Kari Attleson]
