OBITUARY

Mother Kathryne Kahl (nee Sennl
wife OF Kew. Julius Kahl, was born
May 8, 1912, in Buchs, Canton st.
Gallen, Switzerland, and came with
her fathers family to this country IL
1850, and settled in Ashford, Wis.
Shortly after this she Joined the Evan
gelical church under the effects OF q
real conversion to God, and her life
ever after was to serve God as q de-
voted christian. In the year Of 1859
she married Rev. j. kahl, minister
of the Evangelical association, and
was great hel p to him in his church
work. She was faithful companion
for nearly fOrty-fve years in spite of
the waters OF affliction through which
she had to pass. In 1892 she came
with her family to South Dakota,
where she settled in Melrose township
in this county, and lived the life of q
pioneer bravely regardless of increas-
ed affection. She was q loving moth
er, and in spite of her sickness she
made her home q place which her
children always sought and appreci-
ated most highly. During the recent
spring her illness became more severe
and painful, and after several weeks
of suffering, and being unconscious
for q number of days, she peacefully
fell asleep at 3 O'Clock Thursday
morning, May 26. The ailment was
ureamia.
She was the mother of nine chill
dren, of whom two died in infancy.
She leaves husband, three daughters,
four sons, one sister. one brother and
eight grand children to mourn their
loss. The funeral services were held
from the Evangelical church IN Big
Stone. Rev. Zech OF Big Stone and
Haag, OF Milbank, officiating. Mem
bers Of different religious societies OF
Big stone showed their love and res
pect by taking active part in the ser.
vices.

Congregational Reception

The:ladies of the Congregation
al church held a reception in the
church Monday evening in hon.
or of their retiring pastor and
wife and Miss Anna Mitchell,
who has long been the organist
of the church,and whose faithful
and continuous service for so
many years had endeared her to
all members and friends of the
church, and whose kindly pres.
ence will be greatly missed.
Her recent marriage and remov-
al to Willow Creek, Mont,
deprives the church of q most
faithful and efficient organist,
and as a token of appreciation by
the church membership she
was presented with a handsome
candelabra. At the same time
Mr.. and Mrs. Oldfield, who had
been in charge of the church for
nearly six years past, were pre-
sented with a purse of money as
a token of the Milbank goodwill
that will accompany them to
their new home at Roundup,
Mont. A very enjoyable evening
of social intercourse was haG by
these departing friends Of the
church.

character.
All morning reports were coming in

MEMORIAL DAY
Of Visitors Helped to Make the
Bay Successful One

Last Saturday was one the
the choice days of the spring,
bright. clear and balmy, just
such day as would be chosen
for an outdoor celebration of
any kind, and as memorial day
has always had a special recog-
milton in Milbank, largely owing
to an active wide awake G. A. f.
post, it was observed this year
in the usual manner. The recog
milton of the day is wholesome
feature of civic life, but the rap
idly thinning ranks and more or
less feeble condition of the re-
naming veterans of the G. A. r.
reminds US that the duty of
planning and and preparing for
a proper observance of the day in
the coming years will necessa-
rily devolve upon younger and
more active organizations then
G. A. r. It would be well if the
Commercial Club, assisted by
some or all Of the various civic
societies, should take hold of the
matter another year and make
it's observance a fine feature as
public holiday. It comes at a
good time of the year for this,
as farmers are willing and anx
ious to take a holiday about this
time and the weather conditions
are generally favorable for it.
The parade column this year
was limited to a small body of
school children in charge of
Supt. Clark, the members the G.
A. r. and w. r. G. and citizens
following in autos. At the ceme-
terry the G. A. r. post conducted
the ritual service for memorial
day. which includes the deposit.
ing of a wreath of flowers upon
the grave of each of the deceased
soldiers who are sleeping there.
In the afternoon a goodly gath
ering was held at the Court
House Park. where benches had
been arranged for seating
the audience, and the surviving
members Of the G. A. r. were
in the pavilion. The band rem
dered several selections and a
chorus Of ladies and gentlemen
gave a nun Der of vocal selec-
tions of a patriotic character,
Rev. j M. Tibbits opened the
exercises with prayer and Col
N. |. Lowthian read Lincoln S
Gettysburgs address, Rev. w.
j. Oldfield, who is a son of a civil
war veteran, gave stirring
patriotic address in honor of the
soldiers of the republic who had
offered their lives in defense OF
the flag and institutions which
it represents, and recounted
the many blessings which we tC
day enjoy as united and liberty
loving people. After the conclu-
sion of the exercises game OF
baseball was played at the park
