been enjoying fairly good health and
death was unexpected until the day
before he died.
The deceased was born July %, 1910,
in Mortified, Summit county, Ohio.
In 1848 the family moved to Wisconsin
and in 1868, fifty two years ago, Mr..
Dresser came to Minnesota and later
to the Town of Eden where he took a
homestead in the valley which had been
his home ever since.
The deceased is survived by his wife
and five sons and daughters. One child
died in youth. Those living are Erving
