The Valley Falls New Era
Jefferson County
Thursday
November 10, 1910

From the Meriden Ledger.

Margarette ZACHARIASEN was born at Topeka, Kansas, April 5, 1891 and departed
this life very suddenly at Meriden, Kansas, November 2, 1910, aged 19 years, 6
months and 27 days.

In 1893 while with her parents, they were visiting their native land of Denmark,
she was baptized into the Lutheran faith of that country. She attended her first
school at the South Star schoolhouse in the southeast part of Jackson county and
her first teacher was Mr. W. S. Scneder. He was her teacher when she received
her diploma from the common school. Last year she attended the United Brethren
College at Holton, afterwards, received a certificate to teach, which was also
signed by Mr. Scneder now county superintendent of Jackson county.

She was a good student and a very faithful worker in whatever she undertook and
by her seeming untimely death the whole community was greatly shocked. A young
life of much promise has been taken from our midst and we are agin reminded of
the brevity of time and the importance of being prepared when the change comes.
The funeral services were conducted from the family residence of her parents by
Rev. F.M. Testerman of the United Brethren church. A very large company of
friends and sympathizing neighbors being present ot show their regards and
indicate the esteem in which she was held by all who knew her. 
The floral offerings were very beautiful and appropriate.

The pall bearers were six of her girl friends, and the body was placed to rest
in the Stuart cemetery.

She leaves her parents, four brothers, and four sisters, and a host of friends
to mourn. May there be a glorious meeting in the morning.

Card of Thanks.
We wish to thank our many firneds and neighbors who so kindly assisted us during
the illness and sudden death of our beloved daughter and sister, Margarette.
Also for the many beautiful flowers.
Mr. and Mrs. Zachariasen and Family.
