Henry Dellage Died
At Jamestown, N. D.

The many friends of Henry Dellage will be sorry to learn of his death, which took place at a sanitarium at Jamestown, North Dakota, where he had been treated for the past three years.

Mr. Dellage was born in the vicinity of New Haven, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs.** Louis Dellage. He was married to Miss Nora Vance, also of that neighborhood, and they moved to Hope soon after. Mrs. Dellage and their baby died a good many years ago.

He was in his early twenties when he suffered an accident in which he lost both of his legs, but that didn't deter him from leading a useful, busy life. He operated a meat market for years at Home, and because of his wide acquaintance there his brother, Lee took his remains to that place for burial.

Surviving are his brothers and sisters; Bert, of Wisconsin; Mrs. Gene Gray and Mrs. Emma Sherman, who live in Minnesota. His mother died when he was a small boy, and his father remarried. Half-brothers and sisters are Lee, of Lignite, North Dakota; Mrs. Jessie Brown, Mason City; Mrs. Jewell Bullin, Des Moines; and Jack, also of Lignite.
