Francis Sorley. He used for his text II Kings 20:1: "Thus saith the Lord, set thine house in order: for thou shalt die and not live." A young ladies quartet, composed of Misses Lois Berglund, Lois Siemsen, Vernice Johnson and Earlis Johnson, sang "Rock of Ages," and "Fade, Fade Each Earthly Joy." The accompanist was Mrs. Everett Bergman. Interment was in Oakwood cemetery, the casket bearers being James Erickson, Sam Swedlund, Tom Hakes, Floyd Ferlen, John Malmberg, of Boone, and Gust Lundquist. Casper Anderson was born in Västra Götland, Sweden, Oct. 16, 1883, and died in Stratford, Feb. 12, 1940, at the age of 56 years, 3 months, 27 days. He was the fifth child of Emma and Frederick Anderson and his father died while Casper was just a lad. He came to America at the age of 17 years and settled in Vermont where he learned the trade of stone cutting. His health was impaired while at his work and he came west to Stratford to locate with his mother and uncle in 1904. Here he was employed by Swedlund Bros. in the hardware business for several years. In 1907 he went to Colorado Springs, Colo., and secured employment in a garage for a short time. Later in the same year he returned to Stratford. In 1911 he secured employment with the Avery company as demonstrator of tractors in Central and South America. In 1918 he again returned to this place and started a garage business of his own and continued in that employment until his death. About 12 years ago he was stricken with paralysis which left him terribly handicapped in his work. However he was determined not to become a burden on anyone and continued to make his own way. He was preceded in death by both parents, a brother, David, and a sister, Mary. He is survived by three sisters: Mrs. Beda Lindblom, of Stratford; Mrs. Andrew Nelson, of Beloit, Wis. and Mrs. Elmer Fallein of Denver, Colo., a brother in Sweden who has not been heard of for many years, five nephews, seven nieces, other distant relatives, a very dear friend, Miss Jeanette Lundquist, of Boone, and a great number of friends and acquaintances. Card of Thanks We wish to thank everyone for the sympathy and kind help rendered in every way in our bereavement and sorrow. Mrs. Beda Lindblom and family.
