Obituary of Mrs. Anderson's Mother

Mrs. O.O. Anderson received word from Norway, Europe last November that her mother had passed away after being sick about eight days with pnuemonia, and we have just been able to get the obituary. Mrs. Marta Grønsdal Ristesund was born in Odda, Hardanger, Norway and died at Saude Ryfylke, Norway at the age of 65 years. She was united in marriage to Sivert Ristesund to which union nine children were born. Among the children who survive her are Mrs. O. O. Anderson of this place, Mrs. H. H. Severeide of Radcliffe and Jacob and Sven Ristesund of Genoa, Colo., whom many of our readers will remember as having visited at the Anderson home from time to time.
