Obituary.

Hilda Johnson Sandgren was
born Feb. S. 1870: died Nov. %,
1919. age 40 years, 9 months. 20
days.
She was born at Smaaland
Sweden; came to America in
1881, and was united in marriage
to Charles Sandgren at Taylor
Falls, where they lived until
they moved here eight years ago.
She leaves a husband and 10
children to mourn the loss of a
loving and devoted wife and
mother. The children are: Ar
thur, Agnes, Albert. Edna, Vio-
let. May Belle, Pearl. Benjamin,
Kenneth, and Corrinne. all Of
whom were at her bedside when
she passed away. Mrs. Sandgren
was confirmed in the Lutheran
church and has always been a
member of that church. Her
life was devoted to her farilly of
children and husband and she
leaves those lives to live the
life she SO devotedly planted in
each of her children. Words of
sympathy are not much comfort
to those left without a mother
and Jesus alone can comfort
those broken hearts and help to
take mothers place in their
lives.
The funeral services were held
from their large new house
which they had just moved into
when Mrs. Sandgren was taken
i'll. Rev. Kamman conducted the
services and in spite of the bit
ter cold day her many friends
and neighbors were all there to
pay their last tribute Of love.
The floral offerings were beauti-
full.
Mr.. Sandgren and children
have the deepest sympathy of all
the community in the loss Of
devoted wife and mother.
