DIED.
CHRISTENSEN—At the family home, seven miles northwest of Akron, in Union
county, S.D., Friday, April 7, 1905, Mrs. Detleff Christensen, of
consumption, aged 44 years, 7 months and 13 days.

Death came to her relief after a long period of patient suffering with that
dread disease.

Annie Katherine Christensen, whose maiden name was Heine, was born in
Oldenburg, Germany, September 24, 1860, and came to this country in 1866
with her parents, who settled in Lee county, Illinois. In 1877, they moved
to Sac county, Iowa, where she married Detleff Christensen two year later,
and together they located in Ida county, Iowa, in 1880. Two years after they
came to this vicinity and have since resided. To them were born eleven
children, of whom three girls and six boys survive, with the father to mourn
the loss of a loving wife and mother.

Funeral services were conducted in the Akron German Lutheran Church Monday
afternoon at 2 o’clock by Rev. Fred Meske, in the presence of a large number
of sympathizing friends of the family so sadly bereaved. Interment was made
in the Akron cemetery.
