ALBERTINA JOSEPHINE BENSON TELGREN
News of the death of Mrs. Gus TELGREN last Saturday (September 18, 1920) forenoon, following only a few hours a report of her improved condition, was a shock to the entire community. She had been in poor health for a long time and a few weeks ago submitted to a surgical operation. Her real trouble was not discovered until too late and the skill of the best surgeons was exerted in vain. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at the home, conducted by Rev. A. B. SMALL, and interment was made in the Oakdale Cemetery. There was a large attendance of neighbors and friends. The bereaved family has the sympathy of the entire community. Albertina Josephine BENSON was born in Holland, Sweden, March 17, 1863 and died at her home September 18, 1920, aged 57 years, 6 months and 1 day. At the age of 23 she came to America and on February 24, 1891, at Omaha, she was married to Gus TELGREN. After a residence of two years they came to Oakdale and settled on a farm nine miles south of this place which has since been their home. Four children were born to Mr and Mrs TELGREN, namely; Arthur TELGREN, Anna PREVO, Alma DRAKE, and Ruben TELGREN. Besides the husband and children she leaves five grandchildren, two brothers, Albert BENSON of Sweden and John BENSON of Omaha, and one sister Anna LUND of Genoa. The deceased was a faithful wife, patient and loving mother, an unselfish neighbor and a true friend. She was a member of the Star ladies aid society and a tireless worker in the activities of the society and church. She was loved and esteemed by a host of friends and a wide circle of acquaintances.

ARTHUR TELGREN
Carl Arthur Telgren was born at Florence, Nebraska, July 2, 1891, and died May 26, 1931, of heart failure at the age of 39 years, 10 months and 24 days. When about two and a half years of age he, with his parents, came to Antelope county and has since resided here. He was married to Miss Lillian Maud Prevo Jan. 18, 1910 of Oak-dale. To this union six children were born, three of whom died in infancy, and three survive him. For a number of years Arthur farmed south of Oakdale and about five years ago moved to Oakdale and has been engaged in county road work where he had become quite efficient. He had, on former occasions complained of some distress yet not suspecting anything serious last Saturday he consulted a doctor and on Monday morning called again and then worked all day. After supper he felt worse and the family called a doctor but the end had come. Neighbors were called and at 12:10 he passed to his reward. Arthur was well known here and was a friend to all who knew him. He was industrious and a good workman. He had belonged to the local I.O.O.F. order and was also a member of the Oakdale Volunteer Firemen Association. He was baptized when a child. His genial smile will be missed by us all. His father preceded him 13 days to his death. He leaves to mourn his departure his loving wife, Maude Telgren, a son, Joseph, two daughters, Dorothy and Evelyn, a grand son, two sisters, one brother and a large number of near relatives and many friends and neighbors. Truly, another citizen has gone to return no more. A father's place vacant. We will seem to hear the familiar voice now and again, only to remember he is not. Funeral services were held in the United Brethren church Thursday afternoon. Rev. Kauffroath officiating. Interment in the Oakdale Cemetery.
