Henrich Nielsen was found dead in his home near the West school Tuesday evening. Deceased lived alone and was a quiet, unassuming man, well liked by those who knew him. Neighbors failing to see anything of him for several days began to look for him and found him lying on the floor dead. Officers were notified and viewed the remains and decided that he had been dead two or three days. He was about 75 years of age. A brother, Christoffer Nielsen, who lives at Winside, was notified and arrived early Wednesday morning to make arrangements for the funeral, which will be held at the Campbell Undertaking parlors at 10 o’clock Saturday morning, Rev. Nielsen of the Danish Lutheran church officiating. Burial will be made at Blair.

Note: The death date was estimated.
