CORDNER FUNERAL TO BE HELD THURSDAY

The news of the death of A. D. Cordner, one of the pioneer residents of Burleigh county, which was announced in the Tribune of Tuesday, was a shock to the many friends of the deceased, for Mr. Cordner had been enjoying his usual good health until about ten days ago when he complained of not feeling well. His physician said that he was suffering from an attack of sciatica rheumatism and when called to the house Tuesday morning informed Mrs. Cordner that there was no need of being alarmed. Within a short time after the physician left the house, however, Mr. Cordner took a sudden change for the worse and an attack of apoplexy was the immediate cause of death.

Mr. Cordner was born Oct. 21, 1835, at Charlestown, R. I., and came to the territory of Dakota and settled on a homestead about 5 miles south of Sterling in the spring of 1885. He was married at the Presbyterian parsonage in Bismarck, Sept. 1, 1888, to Miss Elizabeth Tape and two sons were born to them, Joseph Albert, 23 years of age, and David Ferris, aged 20. Mr. and Mrs. Cordner adopted a little girl, Ruth Addie Cordner, who is about 9 years of age.

Mr. Cordner enlisted in Co. G. 1st Rhode Island Light Artillery, March 3, 1862, and served almost 4 years, being most of the time an orderly to Capt. Adams. He has been a member of the local post of the G. A. R. for many years.

Funeral services will be held from the residence, 418 First street, at 1 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Interment will be in the Catholic cemetery.
