FISHER.

FISHER.
The angel of death has entered this
community and has summoned from our
midst young wife and mother. Mil
lie, the youngest daughter of James
Praska was born Dec. l, 1890, at
Lourdes, Ia, and died July 30, 1915.
/ She grew to young womanhood in
this community and made and kept
many friends by her kind and sunny
disposition, who will regret her early
departure.
On Oct. Is, 1910, she was united in
marriage to Louis F. Fisher. Their
union was blessed with two children, q
boy and girl. Although she had been
in i'll health for the past few months,
the news of her death came as great
shock to her relatives and friends. She
was a patient and hopeful sufferer,
always trying to be cheerful, even on
her bed of pain. She wanted to live
for her loved ones, not realizing
death was so near, but Gods will be
done not ours, and she reconciled her
self to His holy will and entered that
eternal sleep to await the final awak-
ening to unite with her loved ones to
part no more.
She was firm believer in the Catho-
| lie faith and died in the full enjoyment
of its last sacred rites.
She is survived by her grief stricken
husband and two children, father, one
sister and large circle of relatives
and friends.
The funeral was held from Our Lady
of Lourdes church, Mondoy morning.
Requiem mass was celebrated by Rev.
J. J. Norris, at the close of which he
| paid fitting tribute to the deceased.
The remains were laid to rest in the
adjoining cemetery.
The grief stricken family has the
sympathy of the entire community in
this sad hour.
Mile Darlington have lett us
For happier home above,
Gone where there's no suffering,
But all is JOY and love.
Tho our hearts are sad and lonely,
You are ever on our MIND,
We can't forget you Mile,
You we're always good and KIND.

OBITUARY
CARVER.

CARV FER.
Chester M. Carver was born in Stock
bridge, Madison county, N. Y, March
16, 1928. He was the seventh son OF
Austin and Peggy Carver, both descen'
dents of sturdy New England ancestry.
His early years were spent in his ma
tive village, with the exception ola few
months in the summer of 1874, when he
went on an ocean voyage to Newfound-
land.
In the spring of 1856, actuated by
the spirit of progress and adventure, he
left New York for the west intending
to try His fortunes in Kansas. While
visiting in Ohio he became acquainted
with parties interested in Iowa and de.
cided to look over Iowa property before
selecting location.
In April 1856 he bought presumption
claim to quarter section in Howard
county, Iowa. located between what was
at that time the villages of New Ore
gon and Vernon Springs. This became
his home. On Dec. 20, 1859 he was
married to Mary l.. Fall, at Prairie du
Chen, Wis, and spent that winter in
Evanston, Ill.
In the summer of 1860, he, with his
brother-in-law, R. W. Beadle, and a
cousin from the east, left by mule team
overland for Pixies Peak. The summer
was spent in the mountains of Colorado
with some profit and much interesting
Experience and adventure. In the fall
Mr.. Carve returned to Howard county
and in the winter he and his wife es-
tablished their home on his claim,
where they lived for number of years,
enduring the the hardship and exper-
fencing the adventures and pleasures
of pioneer life.
Removing to Cresco in the fall of
1871, he engaged for several years in
various lines of business, being associ-
ated at one time with the late c. l.
White, and afterwards with Capt. C..
V. Jocobs in the lumber business. In
1875 he purchased an eighty adjoining
the corporation of Cresco on the west,
where in 1888 he built the home of his
declining years.
Mr.. Carver experienced religion in
his early manhood, and altho not a
member of any church, always lived a
clean, consistent Christian life. The
summons to come up higher came
quietly at the noon hour, July 30th,
and he was mercifully spared the tor
lures of long and painful illness.
He is survived by his loving life COM
panion, his youngest sister, Dora Car
yer, and his daughter, Mrs. Dora Sven
son; a son, Charles Austin Carver,
having died in infancy.
The sudden summons of Mr.. Carver
was like the fulfllment of favorite
poem:
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning OF the bar
When put out to sea.
But such tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam.
When that which drewifrom out,the bound
less deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark
And may there be no sadness OF farewell
When embark.
For though, from out the bourne of Time
and Place,
The flood may bear me far.
hope see my Pilot face to face
When have crossed the bar.
