From Story County Watchman July 29, 1898

The funeral of Ole A. Edwinson of Richland township, who died last Friday from injuries received by the kick of a horse on the preceeding Wednesday evening took place last Sunday. The interment took place at the Roland cemetery. Rev. N. P. Clemmensen officiated at the house and grave, and Rev. Smedall, of whose church he was a member, preached a sermon in the Roland church. A very large crowd of sympathizing neighbors and friends both from Johnson's Grove and Roland followed Mr. E. to his last resting place. A wife and thirteen children are left to mourn his early departure, lost a good father and husband, Story county a good farmer and the State a good citizen by his death.
