The Princeton Union, November 29, 1917

Mrs. George Ransom passed away on November 21 at Mounds Park sanitarium, St. Paul, whither she had gone to seek the restoration of her health. Even though she was in one of the best sanitariums in the state and was attended by the most skillful physicians and nurses, all human agencies failed to keep her here longer for God wanted her among the redeemed of heaven, freed from her sorrow and pain. In the hospital she was so cheerful that they called her "Sunshine." She wanted to live, which was natural, but was ready to go to her heavenly home.

Mrs. Ransom was born on October 15, 1861 in the town of Princeton and was married on November 30, 1884 to George Ransom and they established their home at Annandale, where they lived until 1900 when they came to reside in Mille Lacs county. They returned to Annandale in 1903 and resided there until 1908 when they came back to Princeton township, where Mr. Ransom still lives.

Before Mrs. Ransom assumed the responsibility of a homemaker she had surrendered herself to the Lord and joined the Methodist church, of which she was a faithful and devout member. She was also an active member in the W.C.T.U. Previous to her departure from earth she requested her husband to present each of her nephews and nieces with a new testament as a memento of her love.

Funeral services were conducted at 2:30 o'clock on Sunday by Rev. James A. Geer. The very appropriate hymnal selections were sung by the Methodist quartet. The interment was in Oak Knoll.

Mrs. Ransom is survived by her husband, four brothers and a half brother, viz., August, Frank, Peter and Otto Henschel and Louis Garrison.

The husband and other relatives take this means of sincerely thanking the friends who so kindly offered their assistance and sympathy in their hour of sorrow.
