of Willmar, are mourning the death
of the first-born son, Carl, which
sad event occurred at the, St. An
thony's Hospital at Bemidji last
Thursday after a five days' illness
with pneumonia. Carl had been
ailing somewhat for some time.
He was taken down with appendi
citis about ten months ago, but had
recovered and was expected home
to celebrate the holidays with his
folks. The latter were not notified
of the last illness, for the physician
in charge did not think it a serious
case. Instead of a happy reunion
of the family as planned it was
plunged into grief and gloom, the
remains of their loved one arriving
here on Christmas eve.
Carl Adrian Hoglund was born
in Hokshufvud parish, Stockholm's
Ian, Sweden, Nov. 30, 1882. He

in 1891. He attended school here
for some time, and then worked as
a farm hand in the vicinity of Will

the U. S. army, and served his term
of enlistment of three years as a
trooper in Troop B, Sixth U. S.
Cavalry at Fort Meade, S. D. Af
ter his service in the army he
worked in the Dakotas, and finally
came to Bemidji where he had been
employed up to the time of his fatal
illness.
The deceased leaves to mourn him
the grief-stricken father, Aug. W.
Hoglund four brothers—Walter,,
Victor, David, and Enoch and two'
sisters—Marie and Ida besides* a
number of other relatives jind
friends. They have the deep syrri
pathy of the community in their
affliction.
The funeral occurred Monday-af
ternoon, services being held at the
Mission church at two o'cloc^,,
Rev. Theo. Paulson officiated ,,aflct
preached the sermon. A vocal duet,
was sung by Messrs. Enock Lind
quist and Roy Landberg. The pall
bearers, all boy friends of the de

dent of Swift County for several
years. The remains were brought
here on Monday and funeral ser
vices were conducted by Rev.

MRS. INGEBORG ERLANDSON.
Mrs. J. A. Erlandson died of
heart failure at her home in Mamre
on Friday December 23. She was
born in Sunnemo, Varmland, Swe

at Aria, Sweden, in October 1861
and came with her husband to this
country in 1868 and to Kandiyohi

Seminar Deieats Grove City
Last Friday the Willmar Semin
ary Basket Ball Team journeyed
down to Grove City to play their
first out-of-town game of the sea
son. The team went down with the
firm intention of winning, no mat
ter what the odds might be. This
spirit never fails to bring results,
and in this case the result was that
the Seminary scratched out a vic
tory by a very narrow margin, de
feating their opponents by the
score of 22 to 19.
The game was played on a very
small floor which almost prevented
all team work. From beginning to
end the game was very rough, as
the referee called very few fouls.
Foot ball tactics were greatly in
evidence.
The first half ended with the
Seminary three points in the lead,
the score standing 13 to 10. In the
second half the Grove City team
started a rally, which for a time
looked disastrous for the Semin
ary's hopes of victory. At one
time the local players scored four
field goals in quick succession, giv
ing them a lead of three points.
Instead of disheartening the Semin
ary Team, this only served to in
fuse them with new vigor, and at
the time keeper's whistle the score
standing 22 to 19 in favor of the
visiting team.
From foul free throws the Sem
inary scored four out of a possible
six, and Grove City two out of five.
The Willmarites report a good
time, and very nice treatment at
the hands of the Grove City people.
