The funeral services over the remains of the late John Hansen, whose sudden death was briefly reported in my letter of Jan, 24th, took place in Newton meeting house yesterday at 11 o'clock a.m. Early in the morning the members of the high priests quorum of Bro. Hansen, who was a member, went out to Alto and escorted the remains to the meeting house, which was filled with relatives and friends of the deceased.
Appropriate and consoling remarks were made by Elders E.O. Hjelte, H.C. Petersen, Ludvig E. Larsen, Wm. Jensen, and Bishop Griffin. All of the speakers bore testimony of the excellent character of which Bro. Hansen, whose sad death has cast a gloom over the whole of our community, as we realize that we have lost a noble and true friend.
Although the weather was extremely cold, the people showed their sympathy by being in a great number of sleighs to follow the remains to their resting place in the cemetery, where Elder H.C. Petersen offered the dedicatory prayer.
Bro. John Hansen was born in Sneserod, Sealand, Denmark, May 26th, 1848. In May 1873, he left his native country to seek a new home in far off New Zealand. In 1880, himself and wife joined the Mormon Church, and in May of the following year they emigrated to Utah and made their home in Logan where they resided about eight years, when they moved to the ranch the family now occupies in Alto.
Brother Hansen leaves a wife, two sons and one daughter, who are deep in grief over the sudden demise of their husband and father.
May the comfort from on high be abundantly bestowed upon the bereaved.
