From The Pipestone Leader Oct. 24, 1907:

 

 Two young men were called from our midst last week--Chris Swendsen 

 and James Wilkenson. The former died Tuesday Oct. 15. Short 

 services were held at his home north of Holland at two o'clock p. m. 

 Thursday, by the Danish Lutheran minister of Ruthton, after which 

 services were held in the German Lutheran church in Holland, by Rev. 

 Albrecht. The death of this young man was doubtly (sic) sad for 

 the reason that his father died only a few months ago and Chris was 

 the oldest boy in the family...
