Johnson, Mrs. Clarence Steele, Fred Jordan, Carl Jordan, Nora Jordan, Mrs. M. E. Baker, Clarence Jordan and Gerald Jordan. He came to North Dakota in 1907. Mr. Jordan was considered one of our most successful farmers. He came onto his farmstead some eight years ago and has developed it into one of the most productive grain growing farms in Golden Valley. As a neighbor he was irreproachable accommodating even to a fault. His demise will be greatly regretted by the progressive farmers of the county as well as by his intimate friends in the Congregational church in which church he was a very active officer, and was among its most consecrated members. A beautiful floral cross is a gift of the members of the Congregational society in token of his large and active interests in the affairs of the church. Mr. Jordan's illness was of comparative short duration. Some three weeks ago he was taken with what was thought to be a minor stomach trouble. However the suffering grew acute and he was taken to Dickinson Hospital where an operation revealed that he had an abscess of the stomach and it was deemed that his recovery was of great doubt. He died Tuesday morning, Nov 9, at about 5:30, Mrs. Jordan attending him. The funeral services will be held at the Congregational church this afternoon at 2:00 o'clock. Rev. Keniston will conduct the service, after which all that is mortal of Jay L. Jordan will be laid to rest in the local cemetery.
