Carl Mortenson died Monday evening at 5 o'clock after a long and painful illness from consumption, aged about 37 years. The deceased has been a resident of this township for nearly twenty years, and has for three years been in business in this place. He was a man of a somewhat retired disposition, a good citizen and an accommodating neighbor. He leaves a wife and infant child to mourn his death besides several brothers and sisters. The funeral services were held yesterday afternoon in the Norwegian Lutheran church, of which the deceased was a member, and were largely attended.
