The deceased was born at Fyn, Denmark, and came to the United States about 52 years ago. She was an active Danish Lutheran Church member all of her life and had been at one time for several years a matron of the Danish Lutheran orphanage in Chicago.

Hansen of Stoughton, and Emma, residing in Kentucky, besides several sisters and brothers, Rasmus Christensen and Fru Frederick Gerglohdt (Christine), both residing in Denmark; Mrs. Christensen (Hannah) of Ferndale, Calif., Mrs. Karen Anderson of Chicago, Ill., and Mrs. T.D. Alexander (Caroline) of Parshall, Colo.

Funeral services were held at Withee Monday from the home at 1:30 and from the church at 2:00 p.m., with Rev. M. Mikkelsen of Askov, officiating. Pallbearers were Christian, H.P., V.A., W.C. and Emil Hansen, and Nels Stockholm.
