The funeral of Martin Olson, whose death was noted in the Representative was held at Bergens church. He had been afflicted with heart trouble for a period of fourteen years, yet during all this time he plied his trade that of painter and decorator. His industry was noted and to many it was a surprise that he should persist in his labor. His death was sudden, living only about two hours after the stroke. At the time he was papering a room of the M. N. Grove home. Martin was a young man who adhered strictly to the principle of right and practiced the role. "Do unto others, as you would have others do unto you." He was a devoted member of Bergens church, and was deeply interested in religious work. The funeral sermon was delivered by his pastor, Rev. Smedal.
