Ole T. Hovde whose death was noted last week was a native of Norway coming to this country with his parents about 40 years ago, since which time he had lived continuously here in Story county. When a young man he learned the painters trade and in this profession he became a skilled artist and his services were in demand. He was working at his trade in Radcliffe when stricken lying in an unconscious condition for about twenty four hours. He leaves a wife and ten children and three grandchildren. A very impressive service was held at the house conducted by Rev. Smedal who spoke of the better life after the moral puts on immortality. Rev. Smedal in his sermon at the church spoke impressively and hopefully for all that believe in Christ. The two married daughters are Mrs. Eli Walker of Minnesota and Mrs. Sansgaard of Story City all the children were present at the funeral.
