Died
At her home in the town of Williston, North Dakota, on Tuesday, Oct.
14th, 1897, Clara Ross, aged 44 years and three months, (wife of William
Ross). Mrs. Ross had been sick only about two weeks, but up to within three or
four days of her death no serious results were anticipated. She had caught
cold a few days before her confinement, which brought on pneumonia and
terminated in congestion of the lungs. Mrs. Ross was a most exemplary woman,
an affectionate wife, a loving and kind mother, patient and sweet-tempered at
all times and under all circumstances. She leaves a husband and eleven
children, the youngest a babe two weeks old, and a host of warm friends who
deeply feel her untimely demise. The funeral, which took place on Saturday
morning from the Congregational church, was one of the largest gatherings of
the kind ever occurring in this city, the services being conducted by Rev..
J.H. Hjetland.
