OBITUARY.
LING:
Richard W. Ling was born in Westonzoyland, Somersetshire, England, Feb, 2, 1823, and died June 24, 1905. He was married to Anna M. Ling, Jan. 26, 1849. They with their family of three boys came to the United States in June 1869, locating in Vernon Springs in July of the same year, from whence they moved to Cresco some years ago, Anna M. Ling dying May 7, 1897. They leave behind them their sons: M. R. Ling, of Fargo, N. D., L E. A. Ling, of Cresco, and C. W. Ling, of Billings, Montana.
The funeral occurred Sunday afternoon from the residence of his son, L E. A. Ling, Rev. Gammons, officiating, with interment in Oak Lawn Cemetery.

His work is done; and while we mourn
The mortal form just gone from view
He still is here—His spirit lives;
And will be with us, year by year.

Oak Lawn Cemetery
