AUDUBON MAN
DIED SUDDENLY
HAD BEEN IN POOR HEALTH BUT
HAD NO WARNING OF APP
PREACHING DEATH

The people of Audubon were
greatly surprised last Friday morn
ing when 1t became known that An
ders Petersen was found dead in
his bed when his wife went to call
him. Mr.. Petersen had been ailing
for several years but 1t was not I'M
til the last six months that he be-
came afflicted with dropsy and was
confined to his home.
Thursday evening he was feeling
as we'll as usual, in fact he took oc-
casion to sit down and write a short
family history before retiring. He
went to bed about his usual time.
Friday morning his wife went to
call him and was Mortified to find
that he was dead. A physician
was called and after an examination
said he thought Mr.. Petersen had
been dead two or three hours.
The deceased was born in Den
mark Oct. II, 1856 and came to
America in 1889, settling in Shelby
county where he remained for seven
years before coming to Audubon
county. For twenty years he lived
with his family on farms in Douglas
and Cameron townships. Four years
ago the family moved to this city.
He was united in marriage to Miss
Marie Carlson on Sept 80, 1888. To
this union were born eight children
as follows: Mrs. Andrew Chris
Hansen, OF this city; Chas. Petersen,
of Vesper, Kansas; Chris and Ernst
Petersen, of Yuma, Colo; Arvid Pet
ersen, of this city; Hans Petersen,
of Denver, Colo; and Oscar and Nels
Petersen who are still at home.
Mr.. Petersen was baptised and con-
vrmed in the Lutheran church in
Denmark. He was a man who
lived his religious life daily and made
close friends, all of whom extend
sympathy to the Borrowing wife and
bereaved children.
Funeral services were held at the
Danish Lutheran church in this city
Sunday afternoon. In the absence
OF the pastor, Rev. A. Rasmussen, of
Blair, Nebr., conducted the funeral
services

DEATH OF MRS. JENs HANSEN

Mrs. Jens G. Hansen, one OF the
pioneers of Audubon county died at
her home in this city Monday after
a lingering illness. She was born
in Denmark, but came to this coun-

iod of years the family lived on a
farm in Sharon Township, but of
more recent years they have made
their home in this city. She is sur
vived by her husband and a large
family of children. On account of
the children living so far away from

rived from Canada and others are ex-
pected to arrive tomorrow. We
