HEDLUND AT REST The death of Mrs. Christina Hedlund last Monday afternoon takes away another of the pioneer mothers of this region, whose sacrifices helped lay the foundation for development of its prosperity. Christina Louise Schill was born in Jönköping Län, Froderyd socken, Hokhultby, Sweden, October 1, 1846, and came to this country with her parents at the age of sixteen, settling at Bishop Hill, Illinois. Later they came to Swede Bend, Boone County, Iowa, where she was married to John L. Hedlund, July 8, 1867, just forty-one years preceding her burial day. They came to Dayton, which has since been her home. To their union, eleven children were born, five of whom together with her husband have passed over the great river before her, Mr. Hedlund departing this life April 16, 1894. Six children still survive, Mel, Myrtle and Lorena Hedlund, all of this place, Frank Hedlund of Marshalltown, Hayes Hedlund of Boulder, Colorado, and Mrs. Maud Lunquist, who recently moved to Stratford. She also leaves her aged father who will be ninety-five years old next October, two brothers, Frank Schill of Harcourt and Gust Schill of Fort Dodge, and ten grandchildren. Since the death of her mother in 1890, her father has made his home with her, and she has been his constant companion until this spring, when she herself was bedfast and Grandpa Schill was taken to the home of his son Frank at Harcourt, where he now is. She was 61 years, 9 months, 5 days of age at her death. Her funeral was held yesterday afternoon from the Swedish M.E. church, of which she was a member, her pastor, Rev. Sherman, conducting the services, assisted by Rev. Crawford of Grace M.E. church, and her remains were laid to rest in Dayton cemetery. Mrs. Hedlund was an earnest Christian woman, a kindly neighbor, whose life was full of loving deeds for those around her. Surely the Master she loved may say, "She hath done her part." We join a host of friends of the bereaved family in extending sympathy in their hour of sorrow.
