Mrs. Martha Marie ELLINGSEN died Sunday morning, August 22, at her home
three miles west of Arkdale. She had been in failing health for the past
two years.

Martha Marie LARSON was born on the old homestead, two miles East of
Arkdale, March 1, 1870. She was married to Erick ELLINGSEN January 20,
1898. This union was blessed with 5 children, one of whom, a daughter
Mabel, preceded her mother in death.

Besides her husband deceased is survived by four children: Mrs. Jennie
GLORVIGEN of Alberta, Canada; Otis, Agnes and Clarence. She is also
survived by one sister, Miss Anna LARSON and one brother Edward LARSON. She
was a member of the Trinity Lutheran church and the north side Ladies Aid
Society.

Deceased was a faithful wife, a tender mother and a true sister. It is our
hope she has attained to life eternal through Jesus Christ.

Raftshol officiating. Interment was made in the cemetery adjoining the
church.
