DEATH OF MRS. WILLIAM BENGTSON
Mrs. William Bengtson, wife of William Bengtson, residing two miles west of Swedeburg, passed away last Thursday morning at the age of forty years. Death was caused from complications resulting from the influenza. She leaves to mourn hers a husband, two children, eight and ten years old, an aged father, two sisters and one brother, and a very large circle of relatives and intimate friends. An open air funeral was held from the house, two miles west of Swedeburg on Friday afternnoon which was one of genuine solemnity and sadness. The floral tributes were both many in number and very rich in appearance. The body was laid to rest in the cemetery of the Lutheran Church, Swedeburg which church the deceased had been a member for many years. Many sympathies go with the husband.
