He had been drinking heavily during the evening, and about 10:30 Dr. D. Claiborn was called to the home. At about a quarter of 2 Mrs. Esp retired. Arising at 6 a. m. she found him dead. Funeral services were held at the Lutheran church yesterday afternoon by Rev. A. A. Holbeck, the edifice being crowded with old friends from the city and every part of the county.

Starting as a herder, he branched into the sheep business and continued in that line until death. He was married in 1899 to Anna Thorgaard, who died June 5, 1908.
