John Wesley Lind, the youngest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Louis Lind was born
on the 3rd day of January, 1893. on
his fathers farm one mile west of Mil.
Dsnk, S. D.
Here he spent the enjoyable days OF
childhood, attended the public school
and developed into manhood. In his
temperament he was quiet and reserv-
ed. However with cOngenial cOmpan-
ions be was quite talkative and ever
ready to serve his friends in q most
unselfish way. The writer recalls q
number of instances in which he took
delight to bestow upon us deeds oi
kindness.

model worthy Of every mans imita-
ton.
He had been in failing health for
about q year. Physicians were con-
suited in his behalf and all that de-
voted parents and loving friends and
the skill of doctors could do was done
to restore his health. And not in vain
for in the last half of the year there
we're signs of Improvement noticeable

complete recovery.
During these trying days of i'll
health he was patient and resigned to
the will Of God. He put up q brave
fight. His great ambition was to help
and many times he would do things
when others with less ambition would
have left them undOne.
He attended church services when
ever his health would permit. About
five years ego during the lsbors oi
