H. B. Carlson, Prominent pioneers of Adams county, killed in an accident at Monrovia, Calif., a week ago. The services were held from the Methodist Epsicopal church in Ritzville Monday afternoon, the Rev. W. G. R. Dann and Rev. H. S. Randall, former pastor here, officiating. The church was crowded and many were standing. Both Mr. and Mrs. Carlson were born in Sweden, he on March 8, 1854 and Mrs. Carlson, nee Nelson, on Feb. 7, 1857. At the age of 14 and 10 respectively they came to America, crossing the Atlantic on the same ship. The parents settled at College Spring, Page county, Iowa and the young couple were united in marriage at Carinda, Iowa on October 26,1878. Ten children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Carlson, of whom seven survive. Two sons died in infancy and another and last son, Garfield, passed away during the influenza epidemic of 1919. The surviving children are: Mrs. C. B. Clark, Los Angeles; Mrs. H. E. Fredericks, Cashmere; Mrs. R. A. Helme Long Beach, Calif.; Mrs. A. H. Borowiak, Ritzville; Mrs. Karl Rosenoff, Spokane; Mrs. J. W. Krage, Ritzville and Mrs. Walter Morach, Ritzville. Ten grandchildren also mourn their passing, being Mrs. Ernest Johansen, Los Angeles; Paul and Lucille Helme, Long Beach; Louis Clark, Los Angeles; Eleanor and Betty Frederickson, Cashmere; Irma Carlson, Los Angeles; Julie Marie and Elizabeth Borowiak, Ritzville and Charles Rosenoff of Spokane. A brother of Mr. Carlson; D. G. Carlson of Hay Springs Iowa and two sisters in Sweden. Mrs. Carlson also leaves a sister, Mr. C. D. Olson of Ritzville and a brother A. F. Nelson of Essex, Iowa. In 1902 Mr. and Mrs. Carlson moved to Washington from Iowa and he engaged in farming for several years. The remainder of his life after retiring was spent in looking after extensive property interest in Adams and Lincoln counties. Always of jovial good nature, both Mr. and Mrs. Carlson gained the love and respect of a host of friends in the community. In Oct, 1928 the couple celebrated their golden wedding anniversary, surrounded by their children and granchildren. They held an open house on that date and scores of friends called to wish them many happy returns. Death came to Mr and Mrs. Carlson suddenly and tragically on Sunday afternoon, Jan. 19, when the automobile in which they were sightseeing in Monrovia, was struck by a motorist on the highway near that city. The son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Clark, with whom they were riding, were thrown clear and injred and the Carlson in the rear seat died instantly. The bodies arrived here Sunday evening, delay in shipment being caused by the inquest which exonerated Mr. Clark of all blame for the accident.
