OLE BENSON

Death on Mon. of Mr. Ole Benson, a highly visible citizen of our city.
He first saw the light of day on 12 Aug. 1837 in Mondal, Norway, and
came to America in 1874 settling in Chicago. About 23 yrs. ago he
resettled in Manitowoc where he has lived ever since. The burial took
place yesterday afternoon in the city cemetery.

Ole Benson, looking as natural as ever, is in the city once more. He
found Chicago too wicked for him.
