The La Crosse district conference of
the United Lutheran church came to a
successful and inspiring close last Sum
day. In the forenoon the president of
the United church, RI. Rev. I. H..
Dahl, d. D., of Minneapolis, laid the
cornerstone of and dedicated Bethesda
United Lutheran church in this city.
He was assisted by Revs. M. Finstad,
N. Lund, A. c. Warwick, II. Hagen,
A. j. 0rke, L. Lund and the pastor To-
CT. C. E. Sybilrud.
The following facts are CLEANED from
the historical sketch of the congrega-
ton read BY the pastor at the laying of
the corner stone: Bethesda Norwegian
Lutheran Congregation of Viroqua was
organized by Rev. /. G. Ascheim of
Hauges synod, March 3, 1898 The fol-
lowing charter members still belong to
the congregation: Mrs. Solfest Toilet
son, Nicola H. Nelson, Christian Pc
derson, Chris. Lewiston, Gjert 7. For
tun, John Moseng, Mrs. H. II. Bolstad,
Lewis Lewiston and Thos. l.. Lem. The
first Norwegian Lutheran church of
Viroqua was built by this congregation
on the present site in 1888. The laying
of the corner stone was conducted by
Revs. Berg and Ascheim, September
IL, 1893, and the church was dedicated
by Rev. A. o. Utheim on November
10, same year. In the beginning this
congregation did not formerly belong
to any synodical body, but on January
26, 1897, they decided BY about two
thirds majority vote TO enter into syn
