FRED WIGsTRAND GOES
 TO HIS FINAL REWARD
Snecumbed to Heart Failure After Passing Through a Severe
 Attack of Pneumonia.

Fred Wigstrand, after an illness of about two weeks, passed to his final reward at 2 o'clock Tuesday morning at the home place in Beth esda Valley.
 Fred Wigstrand was born April 4, 1857, in Smoland, Sweden, and was graduated from the Wexio univers- ity at Wexio, Sweden, where both his father and grandfather were graduated before him. His father was bishop of the Cathedral at Wezio.
 Mir. Wigstrand came to the United States in 1879 and became U. s. as- sistant engineer on government works on the Mississippi river, which place he held for 29 years, and where his health became per- manently undermined by malaria. He was married in 1897 at Laconia Circle, Ark. to Mary E. Blackburn, who survives him. One child was born of this union, but survived but a short time.
 Because of broken health, Mfr. Wigstrand resigned from the civil service in 1904, and in 1909 was elected surveyor of Polk county, but a serious illness caused him to resign before the end of his term.
 During his life in Polk county Mir. Wigstrand, by his good heart and rigid integrity won and kept many warm friends who will long miss his hearty handclasp and cheery greeting.
 Friends of Fred Wigstrand and of his bereaved widow gathered at the Episcopal church this morning and listened to the beautiful service for the dead as real by Judgw Wright Prickett and sung by the choir. after which they followed the remains to White Oak cemetery, where they were tenderly laid in their last rest ing place. l.. s. Watson, NJ. B. Le- gate, W. A. Finks, w. k. Watkins, Minor Pipkin and V w. St. John acted as pallbearers.
 At inc present time Mrs. Wig strand will Dc at the homo of Mrs. D. H. Hopkins and daughter, Hazel, on the Bethesda Springs road. and. the farm home in Bethesda valley having recently been sold, she will as she is able get her household goods together and probably secure a home in Mena.
