OBITUARY

Last Monday fore noon occurred the death of Mrs. Ingebor Rullestad at her home east of Kelley at an age of nearly 76 years. Her late and fatal illness was of short duration, she being sick only a week with heart trouble. Funeral takes place to day from the home and Fieldberg church at twelve o'clock where her pastor, Rev. Guttebo, will speak at the last sad rites. Deceased was a native of Norway though she had made this country her home for many years. Her husband passed this life nearly four years ago. She leaves seven children to mourn her loss, two sons and five daughter as follows: Gertie Richardson and Mrs. P. D. Johnson of near Kelley, Mrs. Andrew Erickson of Butte, S. D., Mrs. Bertha Dahl of Kingsbury, S. D., Lars Rullestad of Deadwood, S. D., and Mrs. Ford and Torkel Rullestad of Van Couver Island. With the exception of the last two all the children are expected to be present at the funeral to-day. Mrs. Rullestad was a woman universally admired. Though of a quiet disposition she endeared herself to all her acquaintances who learned to know her just as she was, a quiet unassuming woman.
