STROKE IS FATAL TO MRS. J. HAGNA

A stroke on christmas night proved fatal for Mrs. Jennie Hagna; her death occurring Monday night at St. Olaf Hospital where she had been cared for since her illness.

Jennie Reierson, daughter of Thurston and Gunhild Reierson, was born on August 4, 1876, in Mitchell County, Iowa. She attended the rural school near the farm home, later attending Osage Seminary and Cedar Falls Normal College. She followed her schooling with teaching jobs in schools near her home for several years. Later she took a postion in the First National Bank and with her mother, moved to Lyle. She there married Olaus Hagna, on November 27, 1919. They came to Austin in retirement and continued the home here.

Mr. Hagna died December 2, 1922. Later, Mrs. Hagna resumed her work in the bank and had thought to return to the old home for residence but the aged mother, 95, was content to remain among the friends in our city.

Mrs. Hagna seemed in her usual health and was about her home and duties on Christmas Day. The day had been spent with friends. Upon her return she suffered a sudden stroke of apoplexy which rendered her unconscious and she never regained consciousness. She died at the hospital on January 2.

Mrs. Hagna leaves her aged mother, a sister, Mrs. R.L. Mosena, of Milwaukee, who came at once upon reeipt of word of her illness and remained in the home with the mother while Mrs. Hagna was being cared for at the hospital. A brother, R. Reierson of Portland, Oregon, came for the funeral. Two brothers-in-law also are left, Mr. Mosena and W. S. Weber of Chicago.

Mrs. Hagna was a member of St. Olaf Lutheran Church, and also of the Order of the Eastern Star. She loved home and to be with the gentle mother.

Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon in the Jordan Mortuary, Rev. Henry Noss officiating.

Interment was in Pleasant Hill Cemetery at Mona, Iowa, beside her husband.
