— Abr. S. Friesen, 91 year old resident of the Bethel Home for Aged, died there early last Friday morning from a heart attack. Mr. Friesen had been in poor health for a long time, but was able to sit up in bed and always enjoyed a visit from his friends. In his younger years he taught school, but later sold brooms and brushes as long as his health permitted. Two brothers, k. N. Friesen of Burrton and Peter S. Friesen of Paxton, Nebr., survive. Funeral services were held in the chapel of the Bethel Home for Aged Monday afternoon, conducted by Rev. J. E. Entz. Interment took place in the Buhler cemetery.
