clared they were laboring under a
system that it was difficult to get
away from. Both he and DR.. Davis

the trouble would be for the club to
work for the improvement of the

obsolete.

sion, the following resolutions, draft
ed by committee, was adopted with

Resolved, that this club enter a
vigorous protest against the action of
the county commissioners in the ap-
pointment of the road overseers for
the year 1914, which is practically
contrary to assurances made the COM
mit.ee of the Motor club last year,
as they, the commissioners themselves
agreed that the system is antiquated,
and that they did not receive over
20 per cent value for the monies paid
out under the road overseer system. -

for the most part from personal
friends.
The body was laid to rest in Green
mount cemetery.
Briefly speaking the life story Of
the much loved woman was this: She
was born in Sweden on August 1st,
"a years ago. When she was two
years of age, her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Fross moved to America and To-
Gated in Wisconsin. Fourteen years
ago she became the bride of Gus Sed-
erholm. OF this union three daugh-
ters were born, the eldest being eleven
years of age and the youngest six.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sederholm moved to this
city in the year 1902. Mrs. Seder-
holm united with the Baptist church
and was one of its most active and
earnest workers. While her sphere
of influence was felt in all depart
ments, she was especially identified
with all things in niusicq. way. She
was gifted with an unusually fine
voice, and was ever ready to lend its
charm, particularly for the Master.
The heritage of the memory Of her
beautiful life is great comfort to
those so saddened by her untimely
passing.
