KENNARD LADY DIES TUESDAY

Young Mother is Victim of Short Illness

Mrs. Alfred Nielsen passed away at the Blair hospital at 8:30 Tuesday night after a very short illness, hemorrhages following the extraction of her teeth on Monday causing her death. Edna Andersen was born at Kennard April 12, 1905, and grew to womanhood on a farm five miles east of that village. She was united in marriage to Alfred Nielsen of Blair on May 27, 1924, and for the past year has resided on a farm 1 1/2 miles west of Kennard.

She is survived by her husband and three small children, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Andersen and three sisters, Mrs. Paul Peterson, Mrs. Elmer Andreasen and Miss Mary Andersen. Also scores of friends and other relatives.

A kind and loving wife and mother are gone from her home where she is sorely needed by her little children and her husband, and a place is made vacant that cannot be filled. The sorrowing family and relatives have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community.

Funeral arrangements are not completed at this time.
