Mrs. Anna Nearants

Mrs. Anna Nearants passed away
Friday, February 18th, at the home
of her daughter, Mrs. Guy Piland at
Donald, Washington. About a week
ago she suffered a paralytic stroke
from which she never recovered.
Funeral services were held Sunday af-
ternoon at two o'clock at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Piland and on Monday
the body was taken to Seattle, WASH,
where interment was made.
Mrs. Nearants was born at Sea-
forth, Canada, on July 18th, 1864, and
moved to Redwood County with her
parents when a small girl and where
they lived on q farm near Wabasso
for many years. On Christmas Day,
1886, she was united in marriage to
William Nearants and made her home
on a farm near Wabasso until tven-
ty years ago when with her family
she moved to Seattle, WASH, where
she lived until the last few years.
For ten years Mrs. Nearants was the
matron in the Detention Home in
Seattle but because of q nervous

SENIOR GIRL and
JUNIOR BOY WIN
IN ESSAY CONTEST
MARGARET BRITTON AND JOHN
KRIEGER WIN MEDALS FOR
BEST WRITING; JOHN FOURTH
IN STATE PRELIMINARIES.

Margaret Britton, Senior and
John Krieger, a Junior, were the
winners in the Lincoln Essay contest
held at the high school, the selected
essays coming up for decision last
Friday afternoon. This contest was
inspired by medals offered by the
Illinois Watch Company of Spring
field, Illinois, through the local deal
ers, Hillig Brothers. The Watch
Company has taken this method of
interesting the younger generation in
the Life of the Great Emancipator
who was at one time a resident of
Springfield. A large number of the
local students entered the contest.
The theme given the writer's was
the Life of Abraham Lincoln. Those
essays selected by the faculty for the
final reading were read by students
other than the authors, the name of
the writer in each case being unknown
to the student body. Selection was made
by the popular vote of the school. Be-
cause of the excellence of all the es-
says the matter of choosing the best
was extremely difficult and the con-
test was close one. The two stu
dents given honorable mention as close
seconds to the winners were Marion
Jaehning and Elmer Rebel.
John Krieger also won fourth place
in the preliminary contest of extern
poraneous speakers at Manchester Col
lege last Thursday. Accompanied by
Mr.. Stockton of the faculty, John
went to Minneapolis Thursday morn
ing and was among those placed in the
contest held that morning. How he
ranked in the final contest is not
known since only the names Of the
two placing first and second were an
nounced. The field was large and
that John was able to get into the
finals at all is gratifying to his
friends here.
In the first or preliminary contest
the Redwood Falls boy spoke on Re-
ligion and Crime, and was one of
eight contestants. In the finals there
were six speakers, the four winners
in the morning contest and two girls
from the Range who were the wiz
ners in a contest held there. Camille
Fearheilly Of Winthrop won first in
both preliminaries and finals. Second
place in both cases was won by Mar
garet Graham of Crookston.

MRS. @. B. TURRELL
DIES WEDNESDAY
AT HOME HERE
RESIDENT OF COMMUNITY FOR
FIFTY YEARS DIES AT AGE OF
NINETY-THREE YEARS; BUR-
led IN SAINT PAUL.

Mrs. o. B. Turrell died at her home
here Wednesday, February 10th, 1927,
following a long illness due to ex-
treme old age. The funeral service
was held at the Redwood Falls Pres
byterian Church Saturday morning
with the pastor, DIR. A. w. Ross, Of
ficiating. The body was then taken
to Saint Paul and buried Monday
morning in the Oakland cemetery
where Mr.. Turrell was buried several
years ago.
The deceased was nearly nine-three
years of age and in spite of being
practically bedridden retained many
of her senses to an extent remarkable
in one of her years. Her enjoyment
of the many friends who called on
her was keen until within a few days
of her death and her mental faculties
remained clear at all times. Her
death closes the story of an active
useful life, the last fifty years of
which were spent in Redwood Falls
community.
Harriet Anjavine Smith was born
at Mahopac, New York, June 3rd,
1885. In 1857 she married Orlando B.
Turrell and they came to Minneso-
ia, arriving here the day it became a
state in 1853. Mr.. Turrell's life was
closely connected with the early his
tory of the State which he helped to
make. In all his public works he
was ably assisted by his wife who was
a woman of intellect, culture and abil
ity.
To Mr.. and Mrs. Turrell were born
six children, only two of whom sur
vive. Miss Luella Turrell has been
the close companion of her mother
for the past many years and r. A
Turrell, the surviving son, is resi-
dent of Longview, Washington.
The family left Saint Paul in 1877
locating first on a farm five miles
south of Redwood Falls. Here they
lived eight years. In 1885 the Tur-
rells moved to Redwood Falls and for
the past forty-one years have made
their home in the big old home near
the entrance of Ramsey State Park.
During their residence here both Mr..
and Mrs. Turrell were prominent and
active members of the Presbyterian
church which they joined in the early
days of their life in Redwood -Coun-
ty.
Miss Turrell, who went to Saint
Paul with the body of her mother,
will remain there until April first.
At that time she will return to Red
wood Falls for a short time, making
preparations to remove permanently
from here. Her brother was unable
to reach Minnesota in time for the
burial service.
