“A Norwegian, supposed to be Ole Oleson, residing about 12 miles southwest of this place and in this county, froze to death last Monday night while on his way home. He left here in company with two others, each of the three having an ox team, but during the trip home is supposed to have got lost on the prairie. When found he was near Mr. Converse’s, 9 miles south-east of this place.
