Mrs. Botelle Fjelland died at the home of her son Andrew T. Fjelland, one mile west of Huxley last Saturday morning and was buried at the Fieldberg cemetery Tuesday afternoon. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. K. L. Guttebo and were largely attended. The deceased was a native of Norway from whence she immigrated with her husband in the early sixties. In 1878 her husband died. Of eight children born to them only three survive. These are her son Andrew at whose home she was staying at the time of her death, and two daughters, Mrs. Anna Graves, of Nebraska, and Mrs. Julia Watland, of Utah.
