DEATH OF MARY PETERSON.

 

            Last Tuesday when Miss Anna Rasmussen returned home for dinner she was shocked to find her housekeeper, Mary Peterson, dead, and upon investigation it was believed she had been dead for two or three hours.  Death was due to heart trouble.

            The deceased was born in Denmark and was sixty-five years of age.  She had been with the family many years.  Her only relative in this country is a half-sister, Mrs. Nels Jensen, formerly of this city, now of Oshkosh.

            The funeral will occur Thursday afternoon at two o’clock at the house, Rev. C. H. Jensen and Father Deis officiating.
