The death of Mrs. Mathilda Aagaard is peculiarly sad and depressing to her friends. Her demise occurred Thursday night after a lingering illness of several months.

The deceased was the daughter of C. Carlson, a prosperous stockgrower, and a sister of the inventor, John Carlson, residing about three miles from this city. She was born about 25 years ago at Sunsvald, Sweden, and came to this country with her parents a number of years ago. On December 5, 1897 she was united in marriage to A. Aagaard, a merchant of this city and the future was bright with hope and happiness. During the month of January consumption manifested itself and while all that medical aid could do was done, the disease had taken too firm a hold for medicine and kind hands to break. For several weeks hope had fled and the patient sufferer knew that the end was near. She bore her pain heroically and met death unflinchingly. Quietly and peacefully she passed over the silent river into the haven of eternal rest. The services were held at the Lutheran church, of which she was a member. The pall bearers were A. O. Morek, Chris Olson, A. E. Thorberg, J. L. Hanson, Nels Ellison and Hans Bernson.
