MRS. ANDREW LARSON DEAD
Passed Away November 8 at 7:45 P.M.- Interred Friday in Crown Hill Cemetery.

Mrs. Andrew Larson died at her home in Ruthven at 7:45 o'clock on Wednesday evening, November 8, 1922, after an illness of about two years, the last ten weeks of which confined her to her bed. Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. L. O. Wigdahl on Friday afternoon, November 10 at 2:39 o'clock, at the Lutheran church, and interment was made in Crown Hill cemetery.

Inger Marie Anderson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Knute Anderson, was born on September 30, 1867 at Ossian, Iowa, where she spent her girlhood days. On March 8, 1884, at Thor, Iowa, she was united in marriage to Mr. Andrew Larson. They came to Ruthven in 1887 and have since resided here. Soon after returning to Ruthven Mrs. Larson united with the Lutheran Church and has lived a consistent, devoted and Christian life.

Mrs. Larson is survived by her husband, Andrew Larson, one daughter, Mrs. F. S. Grange, and four brothers: Herman Anderson of Rundall, Minn., Chris and Matt Anderson of Elmore, Minn., R. W. Anderson of Ossian, Iowa, and four sisters: Mrs. B. F. Grundy of Cass Lake, Minn., Mrs. Maggie Iverson and Mrs. A. Davik of this city and Mrs. Lee of Ossian, Iowa.

Those from a distance attending the funeral were: Chris Anderson and daughter, Miss Mamie and Matt Anderson and son, Melvin, of Elmore, Minn, and Mr. and Mrs. E. V. Peterson of Royal, Iowa.

There were many beautiful floral arrangements, that showed the high regards in which Mrs. Larson was held. Mrs. Larson was a quiet, home loving woman, she was a good wife, a loving mother, and a kind neighbor who was always ready to lighten the burden of others. Her place can never be filled in the hearts of those who love her. We join with the many friends in extending sympathy to the sorrowing family in their hour of darkness.
