Axel Boilesen, who for the past six months has been suffering with inflammation of the stomach and bowels at intervals and several times been on the road to recovery, finally succumbed early Monday morning from a relapse of the same complication.
Mr. Boilesen was an old time resident here and his untimely death is sadly deplored by a vast number of friends. He was a charter member of the Danish Brotherhood lodge of Elba and carried a $ 1,000 policy in that order.
Funeral services occurred Tuesday from his home, the remains being interred in the Dannevirke cemetery. A large concourse of people followed the remains to their last resting place.
The floral offerings were numerous and rich, especially so were the wreaths given by D.B.S. lodge No. 88, D.B.S. lodge NO. 66 of St. Paul and one given by individual members of lodge No. 88.
The funeral procession was unusually large, there being about 100 teams. A higher tribute to the esteem in which this man was held during life could not have been paid.
The bereaved family have the sincere sympathy of a large circle of friends. Personally we extend our heartfelt sympathy and sincerely mourn the loss of a valued and true friend.
