    FRANK NELSON, one of the representative young farmers of Cosmos township, has
his home upon section 16, where he now owns some 200 acres of fine land. This place,
or, rather, 160 acres of it, he purchased in 1886, it being school land. To it he
has since added forty acres more, and has some 115 acres of it under cultivation.
His dwelling, etc., which he erected in 1887, are of an excellent character, and the
whole place manifests the thrift and care of its owner.

   Mr. Nelson, who is the son of Swan and Louisa Nelson, was born in Goodhue county
March 2, 1864, and' came to Meeker county with his parents on the 26th of September,
1876. The family located in the town of Litchfield, where our subject remained until
coming here. June 10, 1887, he and Miss Mary Peterson were united in marriage, and
took up the duties of life upon their farm.

   Our subject has always manifested considerable interest in all town and
educational matters, and since coming here has been intrusted with the office of
clerk of school district No. 81.
