He had a stroke some ten years ago which left him helpless and since that time his devoted wife had to care for him as she would a little child. Last Thursday pneumonia set in and with other complications in his weakened condition proved too much for him to stand and he passed away Sunday morning. Mr. Paulson was born in Oakfield, Dodge County, and moved with his parents to Wood County in 1877, coming to Adams county in 1887. He is survived by his wife and seven children: Nels, Ragnvald, Dorothy, Selma, Gustav, Martha and Nora. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon, September 26th, at 1 o'clock at the home and at the Central Lutheran Church at 2 o'clock.
