JULIUS LANGFELDT
The pioneer general store-keeper of Marne, was Julius Langfeldt, who opened out with a general stock, in the fall of 1875. He closed out business in the winter of 1876-77, and went west. He is now in Wilson, Kansas. His store was located in the building now owned by Olof Remien, on the corner of Washington and Second streets, occupied by L.H. Perkins. Rudolph Lorenzen bought Langfeldt's stock and removed it to the next building south, which he now occupies.
