    Charles Axel Lindquist was born near Linkoping, Sweden, February 8, 1862.  He
came to this country when 
he was 19 years of age and engaged in farming.
   On December 12, 1888, he was married to Sophie Westman.  To this union were born
three children, two 
sons and a daughter.
   He moved with his family to Michigan in the spring of 1915, purchasing the farm
on which they now reside 
three miles northeast of Lake Odessa.
   Mr. Lindquist passed to the great beyond, Dec. 11, at the age of 56 year, 10
months and 3 days, having been 
sick about two weeks with influenza, later developing into plurisy and then into
pneumonia which caused his 
death.
   He leaves to mourn their loss, his devoted wife and their three children; Oscar
Clarence, who is now serving 
his country, Fred Arthur, at home on the farm and Edith Christing Garlinger, who
lives in Lake Odessa; one 
grandson, Ivar Garlinger.
   Besides those who were near and dear to him, Mr. Lindquist had a host of friends
who were shocked when 
they heard of his sudden death, but the grim reaper is no respecter of persons.
   The funeral was held at the home, Rev. E. L. Prentice preaching and the burial
was at Lakeside cemetery.
