Ina Carlson Died Monday Morning;
Ill Nine Years

Ina Carlson one of Rock Creek's talented women passed away at the home of her mother, Mrs. C. J. Carlson, Monday after an illness that extended over nine years.

Ina Luella Carlson was born November 19, 1894, in Rudd township, Floyd county, Iowa,the daughter of Mr.and Mrs. C. J. Carlson. She received her education in the rural school in her community later attending the Cedar Valley seminary in Osage for one year. Her ambition was to study music and she completed a course in the standard ----- system, later teaching a small class.

She was of a quiet nature and enjoyed her home life. Ina has been her mother's constant companion through the many trials Mrs. Carlson has been called upon to bear.

The deceased was a member of the Rock Creek Lutheran church, having been baptized and confirmed early in life. She was also a member of the Ladies Aid society.

Ina had enjoyed good health until about nine years ago when she suffered a severe attack of influenza, which left her in a very weakened condition. In 1932 her doctor advised her to take a complete rest, and she responded to treatment fairly well. She bore her illness with the utmost courage and was ever hopeful of a complete recovery in time.

On December 15, 1938, she suffered a partial stroke and seemed to fall gradually from that time on. She passed away Monday morning at 2:00 o'clock. Death was ascribed to tuberculosis.

She was preceded in death by her father C. J. Carlson, who passed away in June 1930, and her brother, Knute Charles, who passed away in June 1933.

She is survived by her mother,Mrs. Carrie Carlson and three sisters: Mrs. Lena Buckmaster and Christina Carlson, of Osage, and Mrs. Gladys Davidson of Ruthven, Iowa, also by two nieces and two nephews Courtney and Betty Mae Buckmaster of Osage,and Darrrell and Joan Davidson, of Ruthven.
