Death Comes to Miss Mildred Carlson Sunday Morning
Miss Mildred Carlson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Carlson, died Sunday [February 14, 1932] morning after a lingering illness due to heart trouble. She was but eighteen years of age.

Miss Carlson received her education in the Estherville public schools and was a member of the junior class. She was also a member of the high school band which will attend the funeral in a body. The Methodist Choirs, of which she was a member, will furnish music at the funeral.

The funeral will be held Wednesday at 2:30 at the Methodist Church with the Rev. WinterStein officiating.

She was a girl with a pleasing personality and always had a big smile on her face. She leaves to mourn her death, her parents, a sister, Fern, and a brother, Robert, and a host of friends that she had made. (Estherville Enterprise, Estherville, IA, February 17, 1932)
