The remains of Mrs. Nels K. Pederson were brought here from Chicago for burial Saturday. She died in Chicago on Thursday of pneumonia after an illness of only a week.
The remains were accompanied by Mr. Pederson and his youngest son, and Mr. Pederson’s brother Oscar.
The Pederson family were well known here and lived on the Iver Knudson place south of town before they went to Glenwood, Minnesota, some eight years ago. For more than two years Mr. Pederson has been working at his trade of wood carver in a furniture factory in Chicago and this year has been there still longer, being a polisher in the Wrigley building.
The four older children of the Pederson family were not in Chicago. Anna, now Mrs. Bennie Pederson lives at Verges, Minnesota and she and her husband and her brother Svend, who makes his home with them, were here for the funeral. Two other daughters, Mrs. Oscar Olson and Gerda and the former’s husband were here from their home in Maddock, North Dakota.
Mrs. Pederson’s sister, Mrs. Carson Shepley and her husband of Floyd were also here for the funeral and Ed Shepley and family from the same place and a number from Osage.
Mr. and Mrs. Bennie Pederson contemplate moving to Chicago and making a home for her father and nine year old brother.
