Brown Sept. 2006) James Fairfield The passing of James Fairfield of Tower City, N. D., on Wednesday April 27 was a severe blow to his family and friends. He had been in failing health for some time and had received medical and hospital care and every help his family could devise, but his illness refused to yield to treatment and he passed to the beyond at Mercy Hospital in Valley City as the dawn was breaking. James G. Fairfield was born Nov. 22, 1875, in Springfield, Minn. He grew up in the family home at Lamerton, (sic), Minn., had his schooling in the public schools there, and took part in the farm life in which his parents were engaged. He followed farming as a life occupation. In 1919 he moved to Eldridge, N. Dak., and in 1931 to Tower City, running a farm in Weimer township, Barnes county. He was united in marriage with Miss Myrtle Olson at Redwood Falls, MInn., on Oct. 20, 1909. To this union 10 children were born, 5 sons and 5 daughters, all of whom are living.
