The passing out of this life on
Sunday morning Of Mrs. Oscar W.

grief throughout the city anu wher.
ever she was known. Most of her
life has been spent in this city and

to every acquaintance by her sweet
ness and purity of character, her
modest, cheerful disposition, and her
faithful christian Life. During her
long illness of three months as she
knew the end was near, her fortitude
and cheerfulness was amazing to
those about her, being the culminat-
ing triumph of life of rare grace
and virtue.
The general esteem in which she
was held by all who knew her was
attested by the very large number
of friends and neighbors who packed
the large Norwegian Lutheran church
y
beauty of her life and character was
eulogized by her pastor, Rev. !. B
Torrison and her former pastor, Rev
Lee of Northwood, in English, and
her neighbor, President C. X. Preus
of Luther College, in Norwegian
after which she was laid to rest in
the Norwegian cemetery.

in Madison township, this county

and Mrs. John Evenson, and was
married to Oscar w. Bauder at Chi
cago on June 16, 1904, who with a
