Kettelson, passed away at the home of her parents at the age of 24 years, 9 months and 12 days. She was a kind, quiet girl and will be mourned by many. The funeral was held ath the home at 2:00 pm Tuesday, July 14. A beautiful song service by Mr. Frank Graves, Mrs. Myrtle Swan, and Misses Gertie Bartlett, Percie Ross and Maggie Campbell, Miss Campbell presiding at the organ, was very affecting to the vast audience. Rev. O.J. Kvale, of Orfordville, delivered an address appropriate and befitting the sad occasion. The pall bearers were Misses Paula Paulson, Lena Albertson, Laura Gardner, Carrie and Tillie Broughton and Christena Gilbertson. Mr. W. N. Gillett conducted the funeral in a very able manner. The remaines were followed to their last resting plaace by a large funeral cortege. The scene at home and at the grave revealed that Annie had many friends who remembered to pay her a last kindness by a choice collection of flowers. The bereaved family have the heartfelt sympathy of all in the sad hours of their affliction. (There follows a long poem not reproduced here). Annie died in the full faith of meeting her Savior and receiving the reward He has promised the faithful. Her last words "the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want" -- the 23rd Psalm -- will be a reminder to us all, trying to win what she has won. P.J.
