Warner Alexander Langlie - Born October 14, 1897, died Sept. 18, 1898, after a short illness, with inflammation of the bowels.

This is the second time within a few short years that this estimable family have been called to give back to the God who gave them one of their little ones. Coming as this did so suddenly it makes the loss seem harder to bear. While they will miss the little clinging hand, and the prattle of the little lisping tongue they will hear no more, they may feel that it is well with the child, for Jesus said, "Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven."

Short services were held at the family residence, when the friends gathered with the sorrowing family at the Swedish Lutheran church, where the final services were held, Rev. Ferguson preaching a very touching sermon. Mrs. Krohn sang a beautiful solo. Surrounded by the sorrowing parents and friends the little one was laid to rest midst sweet flowers. The whole community extends their heartfelt sympathy to the family in their sorrow.

Card of Thanks
We wish to extend our thanks to our many kind friends for their kindness and sympathy during the illness and burial of our little son.
Mr. and Mrs. A.B. Langlie
