OLD SETTLER DEAD

Mrs. Carrie L. Peterson of Wallingford Succumbs

Mrs. Carrie L. Peterson died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Will Peterson, Thursday, February 4th [1915]. She had been sick for some time. She leaves five daughters to mourn her death, Mrs. O. C. Olson, Mrs. L. P. Peterson, Mrs. Paul Paulson, Mrs. Will Peterson, and Mrs. John Bailey of Amery, Wisconsin, who could not reach here in time to attend the funeral. The others all live here. The funeral was held Sunday and she was laid to rest in the east cemetery near Mud Lake beside her husband who died many years ago and also a son, P. B. Peterson who died a few years ago. At the time of her death she was 74 years, 5 months and some days. We sympathize very much with the bereaved.
