Read More	Ernest John Forell was born near Dwight, Illinois, April 21, 1883, and passed away at his home in Chester, Nebr. on the morning of January 14, 1927 at the age of 43 years, 8 months and 23 days. He was the second son of August G. Forell and wife who brought their small family to settle in Thayer County in the spring of 1885. Ernest grew up on the farm, went to the rural school, then the Chester High School from which he was graduated with the class of 1903. On May 22, 1907 he was married to Miss Della Gravatt of the Chester vicinity. To them were born two children Leland Ernest and Opal Aletha who are now students in the Chester schools. In the spring of 1916 Ernest moved to the western part of the state with his family. He was attracted by the apparent greater opportunities of this section which was at that time developing very rapidly. This was opportune and the venture proved very successful, but responding the the insistent yearning for the home community and the desire to give the children better school advantages, they returned to Chester in the fall of 1919. From that time he was engaged for the most part in mercantile work for others and eventually himself, and had built up a nice little business in the community. His life was unfinished, his work was not done as he wished it, yet the grim reaper could not be stayed. His fatal illness was due to a deterioriation (sic) of brain tissue and the most reasonable explanation of the cause of it seems to be that it was a development from a bad case of the influenza which so generally swept the country about seven years ago. He was a member of the Methodist Church and the Odd Fellow Lodge. He leaves surviving him; his wife Della and his children Leland and Aletha, two brothers and one sister.
