Mr.. Rosby was the Judge of

inc come here from Kandiyohl in

him Mrs, Rosby, one son and two
daughters, Hans O. Rosby, Chris
tine Rosby and Mrs. Fred Bjork,
all of whom settled on claims ad..
Joining his own, where they made
up quite settlement.
Judge Rosby was born in Nor
way in June, 1881, and came to
the United States III the fifties,
settling first in Iowa. In 1872 he
removed to Kandly obi county,
where he resided until coming to
Bcltrami county, and where he
was twice married. Although al
ways taking an active interest in
local politics, being a frequently
elected delegate to county and
state conventions of the republi-
can party, he never asked for or
received public Office until ap-
pointed Judge Of Probate of this

ever, been previously elected to
the Office by the people of the
