Funeral services for Mrs. L. P. Anderson, who passed away at the home of her daughter Mrs. Ida Ellingson Monday evening, were held at the home at 1:30 o’clock and at 2 o’clock at the Lincoln church on Thursday afternoon. The pastor, Rev. M. B. Quill, officiated, assisted by Rev. D. C. Jordahl of Decorah. Interment was in the cemetery adjoining the church. Mrs. Anderson nee Ellen Albertson, was born in Sumner township on Nov. 26, 1858. She was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran church and was a life long member of that faith. On Dec. 4, 1879 she was united in marriage to Lars P. Anderson who preceded her in death on Jan. 26, 1908. To this union six sons, Peder, Henry and Fred of Ridgeway, Severt and Edwin of Bison, S.D., and Rev.
