A Pioneer of Dodge County of the late 60's Passed away at the farm
residence Friday, Feb. 16, 1912 Aged 68 years, 15 days
Oliver Larson a pioneer resident of Logan Township living a half
mile south of Uehling passed away suddenly Friday morning, Feb. 16,
at 10 o'clock following a second stroke of paralysis. Mr. Larson
suffered his first stroke on Oct. 8, 1910, while on a hay sweep
working in the hay field, from which he recovered but it left him
crippled in his right arm and leg. After his recovery he became
unusually active and came up town every day that the weather
permitted. When the snow came it became necessary on account of his
ailment to be confined to the house. From that time he gradually
began to fail, dropsy having also set in, and towards the last he
could only get around in the house by holding on to the back of a
chair and pushing it ahead of himself. On the morning of his demise
he had been up as usual and partook of a light breakfast and on
becoming tired concluded he would lay down awhile. His wife and
daughter, Mrs. Carl Kammerer, helped him to bed and left in a
sitting position and stepped out of the room, when suddenly they
heard a slight noise and they rushed back in to the bedroom and
found that he had fallen back into bed. Thinking that he had
fainted they applied a wet cloth to his head and summoned Dr.
Perlee who upon arrival pronounced him dead. His death was not
altogether unexpected. For a number of years before his first
stroke he suffered from a peculiar fainting sensation when in a
company of large gatherings which caused him to be of a retiring
disposition and he avoided them if as possible.
Oliver Larson was born in Limbeck, Wåmhus, Sweden on Jan. 31, 1844.
He landed in Castle Garden, New York, on July 29, 1863 and from
there came to Chicago where he remained nearly a year, following
the occupation of basket maker. In 1864 he came west to Omaha where
he went to work for the Union Pacific which was then being built.
Mr. Larson was married to Miss Anna Anderson in Chicago. She died
about a year after marriage. July 5th 1866, he was united in
marriage to Miss Anna Olson in Omaha. They came soon afterward to
Dodge county and then on a homestead in Logan township. There they
made their home until eleven years ago when they sold the place and
bought one adjoining where they have since resided.
He is survived by a wife, five sons, Oliver, Andrew, Daniel,
Harvey, Edward, and four daughters, Mrs. Wm Ralph, Mrs. Aug.
Koehler, Mrs. A. C. Kammerer and Miss Elsie Larson. The funeral
services were held from the home Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
