WAS FIRST NORWEGIAN IN
MOSCOW TOWNSHIP

MdrIlH AWOtH IOT more than
twenty years a resident of Cavalier
county, and m Of its most respected
residents, passed quietly away at his
home in Moscow township, on Thurs-
day morning of last week at the age
of forty-fve years. When he was
only twelve years of age the deceased
suffered an attack Of paralysis, the
effects he since always felt to some
extent, and for the relief from which
he had at different times visited
specialists and take sanitarium treat
ment in this and neighboring states,
but never received any permanent re.
lief For the last ten years the disease
had entirely incspacitated him from
physical labor, and of more recent
wears has left him a helpless invalid
as we'll as patient sufferer of much
pain. About two months ago a marked
decline in his general health was noted,
after which he sank gradually to his
death.
Deceased was born on the Aamodt
farm, Trogstad, Norway, on April
18th, 1872, where he spent his child
hood days. In the spring of 1889 he
emigrated to this country, coming to
Renville county, Minnesota, where in
1898 he was united in marriage to
Miss Amelia Halvorson, the widow
who survives. They farmed for three
years in Minnesota, before the time
of their homesteading in this county
in 1896, when they became the first
Norwegians to settle in Moscow town
ship. Seven. children were born to
them, all Of whom are living. They
are Mrs. Grace johnson, of Erskin,
MINI, Henry, Albert, Florence, Alma,
Walter and Ella, who are at home.
The deceased is also survived by his
father, Gulbran Aamodt, residing at
the old home in Norway and four
brothers and two sisters. Mrs. Karolina
Mansrud, Mrs. Anna Boltorp, both in
Norway and his brothers, Johan, and
Arndt Aamodt in that country and
Torval Amoth, of Moscow township.
There were few if any men in this
county, who were known to have more
confidence in God and his fellow mar
than the deceased. He was at all times
cheerful, eve complaining and look
ing at all times on the bright side o.
things, of times encouraging ane
strengthening his friends and neighbor:
who although in good health would
become respondent, while he himself
was handicapped with an inirm body,
The funeral was held at the Nor.
