      AUGUST JORDEN, a farmer who at present resides on section 18, in Greenleaf
towship, but who expects in a short time to remove to Cosmos, is a native of Sweden,
and was born on the 29th of June, 1861. He left his native land in 1880 for America,
and upon his arrival first settled in Minneapolis, Minn., where he remained for
about two years and a half. At the expiration of that time he settled at Litchfield,
in Meeker county, and remained there until 1883, when he purchased the place where
he now resides, on section 18, Greenleaf township.

   The parents of Air. Jordon were also natives of Sweden. They remained in the land
of their birth until 1882, when they came to the United States, and now live with
August. August, the subject of this sketch, is a single man. In religious matters he
attends the Lutheran Church, and in politics he is a republican. He is a good
manager, industrious and frugal, and is getting a good start in his farming
operations.
