      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.
