The funeral was hold at the United Lutheran church Sunday afternoon, Rev Bakken speaking in Norwegian and Mr. Hofstad in English. A profusion of flowers, among them a handsome offering from the school children, attested the high regard in which she was held, and expressed the sympathy felt by friends for the bereaved ones.
