Kingsbury county and Brookings
county have lost n of their noblest
men through the death of Lars Chris
Jensen. The old pioneer landed at
Lake Albert when the white people
were almost unknown; when this
country was the home of Indians and
antelopes.
All the Danish settlement around
the lakes have originated from Mr..
Christensen and Mr.. Andrew Johnson.
When these gentlemen settled there
were only five white settlers within a
territory of twenty miles around them.
The writer landed in the year 1873
and in less than two years over one
hundred Danish emigrants took home
steads around the lakes.
Mr.. Christensen was always open
hearted and gave the emigrants many
a helping hand in times of need.
Mr.. Christensen vas always open
station was Luverne, Mimi, for about
four years and the nearest Touring
mill was Dell Rapids and it would take
a week to make a trip to town with a
team of oxen as horses were a luxury
at that time.
Mr.. Christensen vas a very indus
trious man and through his efforts has
built a good home for his family and
his memory will not be forgotten. He
was a good neighbor, and good to his
family and honest in his dealings. Let
it be said, he was a good man.-Ban-
