MRS. J. CARLSON OF LINDSTROM DIES SUNDAY MORNING
Funeral Services Were Held Today for Venerable Citizen

Death claimed another beloved resident of this community Sunday 
morning when Mrs. John X. Carlson, age 82, passed away at her farm 
home two miles south of Lindstrom. The end came at 4:20 a.m. 
following a pneumonia illness of only a short duration. She had first 
taken ill Friday night. Previous to this she had been in excellent 
health.

Funeral services for this venerable lady, who came here as early 1880 
[sic], were held today from the Chisago Lake Lutheran Church of 
Center City with Rev. C. E. Slatt officiating. Pallbearers were: 
Oscar Lindstrom, P. W. Kroone, Gust Swenson, Ed Johnson, P. G. 
Johnson and J. W. Linn. Interment was made in the church cemetery.

The deceased, whose maiden name was Johanna C. Sandberg was born at 
Ore, Kronoberg's Lan, Smoland, Sweden, January 30, 1855 and came to 
this country in the year 1880. She was 22 years of age when she 
arrived in this community on midsummer day that year. After working 
in Minneapolis for one year she was married to John X. Carlson of 
Chisago Lake at the Center City Church. The couple settled on the old 
home farm 2 miles south of here where she had resided since. Her 
husband died June 30, 1915. The deceased was a member of the Chisago 
Lake Lutheran Church since 1882 being one of the last of the early 
church goers there.

Left to mourn her passing are the following children: Mrs. Gustaf F. 
Johnson residing on the home farm; Arvid Carlson and Mrs. J. J. Noren 
of Chisago City, five grandchildren, Elvira, Vernette and Rudolph 
Noren and Ruth C. and Lucille Carlson, one sister Mrs. Brink of 
Minneapolis and one brother, John Sandberg of Langford, South Dakota.

The memory of the deceased is that of a kind and considerate mother, 
a good friend and one whose noble character will ever be a guide and 
inspiration to those she has left behind.
