Edwin Klove, for more than thirty years an esteemed citizen of this city died at his home here last Friday afternoon after a brief attack of illness, the result of old age and a slight attack of pneumonia. He never had been a rugged man, but he had been of the sort to keep going, and so he kept up in spite of a weakened condition until a very few days before his death. His funeral was conducted from this late residence Sunday afternoon by his pastor, Rev. Shirck of the Lutheran church, and the interment was in the Nevada cemetery. Mr. Klove was born at Voss, Norway, October 19, 1835, and he died at Nevada, Iowa, February 26, 1915, aged 78 years, 4 months and 7 days. He came to this country with his parents when he was six years old, and in 1860 he was at Decorah, Iowa, and engaged in business there with his cousin, I. A. Ringheim. This arrangement, however, did not continue long, and Mr. Ringheim came to Nevada, while Mr. Klove became deputy treasurer of Winneshiek county and later was treasurer of that county for eight years. He was married to Christina Howard at Prairie Du Chien, Wisconsin, May 20, 1864, and they celebrated their golden wedding quietly in this city in May of last year. In 1883 he removed with his family to Nevada and became bookkeeper in the then large merchandise establishment of I. A. Ringheim, continuing in that engagement until the business was discontinued after the death of Mr. Ringheim, and being variously employed since that time and until his strength failed him. He is survived by his wife and by six of their ten children: Geo. A. and Nettie (Mrs. U. S. Aldermen) of Nevada; Henry of Sac City; Edwin J. of Ames; Fred H. of Aberdeen, Idaho, and Louise of Chicago. The second daughter, Alice, grew to attractive young womanhood and was the first wife of Fred C. McCall. The eldest child, a daughter, and a pair of twins died in infancy. Of the absent children, Henry and Louise came hone on advice of their father's illness and Fred arrived, also, in time for the funeral. Mr. Klove was a man of rugged character and absolute worth. He was faithful to his obligations and he met manfully his responsibilities as head of a large family. He was lifelong in his fidelity to the Lutheran church, and he was both unflinching and unassuming in the path of duty. he was an all around good man, who lived a long time and leaves the world better for his example.
