MRS. MARY VALLE.
At Springwater, on the morning of Jan. 9th, Mrs. Mary Valle died of old age. She was born in Norway, Oct. 27, 1825, and came to America in 1855. She was married to Ole Valle in Wisconsin in 1857. Eleven children were born to this union, two of whom preceded her to the spirit land. Five were present at the funeral, which was held at the Springwater church last Sunday, Rev. Schmidt officiating, and interment was made in the Springwater cemetery, six of the grandsons acting as pall bearers.
