C. W. Hacklander is Laid to Rest Saturday:

C. W. (Will) Hacklander was born in Prescott township, Faribault County, on September 7th, 1864, and died at Rochester, Minnesota, on October 15th, having arrived at the age of 64 years, one month and eight days.

On May 24th, 1894, he was united in marriage to Miss Laura Goettel at Lansing, Iowa. To this happy union four children were born, all of whom are still living. He left the farm in 1927, moving with his family to Blue Earth to spend the remaining days of his life.

He is survived in death by his sorrowing wife; his four children, Mrs. L. M. Adleman of Paynesville, Minn.; Clarence of La Grange, Illinois; and Waldo and Carrol of Blue Earth; two sisters, Gusta and Sarah Hacklander of Highland, Cal.; one brother Edwin Hacklander, of Blue Earth. The deceased will be missed by a large circle of friends.

As a young man he was converted at a camp meeting held at the Rice lake Church and continued faithfully in the church for the rest of his life. As a devoted worker and faithful member of the Salem Evangelical church of Blue Earth, he served such important positions as trustee, steward, missionary president, Sunday school superintendent and Sunday school teacher. On several occasions he was elected by his church as lay delegate to the annual sessions of the Minnesota Conference.

His activities were not only confined to the church. He was active in community affairs as well, having served as a member of the school board. He was one who was modest and unassuming, believing that we live best in deeds and not in years.

For the past year and a half he had been in poor health and death came as the result of a long period of suffering which he endured patiently and without complaint.

The day has come, not gone;
Thy sun has risen, not set;
Thy life is now beyond
The reach of death or change.
Not ended but begun.
O! noble soul! O, Gentle Heart!
Hail and farewell!

Funeral services were held Saturday, October 17th, at the Salem Evangelical church. Rev. H. E. Hillier officiating.
