C. M. Tess arrived Thursday forenoon from Crookston, Minn., with the body of his wife, and the funeral service was held at the church Friday afternoon. The death of Mrs. Tess is very sad as she was a woman of many admirable qualities and beside her immediate family of husband, child and sister, leaves a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn her loss. Deceased was nearly thirty-six years of age and had been ill for a year. She died at the home of a sister where she had been taken in the hope of receiving benefit from the climate.
