homestead right and upon which he settled in 1891. He does general farming 
and raises stock, besides logging. The farm has upon it about one million
feet of excellent saw timber and is a valuable place. Mr. Lindahl has impro-
ved the farm with good buildings, fences, and so forth, and is one of the 
capable abd substantial citizens of this section.

of Charles and Gumlla (Nelson) Lindahl, natives of Sweden where they now live
They are the parents of three children, August, Nels, and Charles. The father
