EVER (sic) CARLSON, GUARD LEADER, PASSES AWAY
Carl Ever Maurich Carlson, familiarly known to national guardsmen as Ever
Carlson, died at the General hospital at Madison Saturday night. He had been
a patient at the hospital for three weeks. The body will be returned here for
burial and is expected to arrive tomorrow. It will be taken to the Frazier
and Shimek undertaking parlors and the funeral held Wednesday afternoon with
services at the First Lutheran church, Eighth and State streets, Rev. D. G.
Ristad officiating. Burial will be at Evergreen.
Mr. Carlson was born in Stockholm, Sweden, December 8, 1890 and was thirty-
five years old on his last birthday. He came to this country with his father
and for many years was employed as an auto mechanic in garages of the city.
For a time he engaged in business with a partner, Bishop on York street but
later was again employed by Anton Novy at the Chicago street garage. During
his residence here he became interested in the National Guard and served with
that organization for fifteen years or more, ceasing his connection at the
expiration of his enlistment January 19. He was not permitted to serve during
the border campaign with Co. H because of physical disability and was also
rejected for overseas service. He returned to the city and became identified
with Home Guards and became top sergeant in that organization and continued
to serve with the reorganized unit until the expiration of his last term in
January.
Fraternally Mr. Carlson was a member of the local Odd Fellow lodge and was
active in that order. His father, Nels Carlson, is the only surviving member
of the family.
