William Halverson, the elder son of Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Halverson, who has been sick with typhoid fever at Omaha, did last Thursday [June 30, 1898]. This death seems doubly sad, as the funeral services of the youngest son were barely over when word came conveying the news of the other son’s death. The father returned Saturday with the remains and the funeral services were held Sunday at the parents’ home in High lake township. William Halverson was 38 years of age. He leaves a wife and many friends to mourn his untimely death. (Weekly Northern Vindicator, Estherville, IA, July 7, 1898)
